Introduction
What is Bangsamoro Basic Law?
The Bangsamoro Basic Law is a draft law intended to establish the Bangsamoro political entity in the Philippines and provide for its basic structure of government, which will replace the existing Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao.[1]
The proposed law is based on the Comprehensive Agreement on the Bangsamoro, the peace agreement signed between theGovernment of the Philippines and the Moro Islamic Liberation Front.[1]
The draft of the law was personally submitted by President Benigno Aquino III to Congress leaders on September 10, 2014
Bangsamoro Basic Law, commonly referred to as BBL, for the consideration of the House of
Representatives. The BBL is the product of the peace talks between the government and the
Moro Islamic Liberation Front or MILF. The deliberations on the proposed law, docketed as
House Bill No. 4994, is ongoing.
BODY
Bangsamoro came from the words: Bansang Moro. I have watched an interview (The
Bottomline with Boy Abunda) of ANAK Mindanao Party List Representative Sitti Djalia
Turabin-Hataman (wife of ARMM Governor) - she said that even before the Spanish and
American colonizers came to the Philippines they are a "a nation" on their own. They are even entering "Treaties" with other countries without the knowledge or permission of the
Philippine Government. That somehow explains to us why the Moros (Muslim inhabitants of the Philippines) in our country are in a struggle to retain the government of their own.
“The Bangsa Moro Basic Law” will replace and abolish the Autonomous Region Muslim
Mindanao (ARMM) Organic Act is an enhanced version of the existing ARMM. The said
Law's primary aim is to promote long-term peace and ensure development and progress in the Bangsamoro region and to secure their identity being Moros.
Conclusion
In my own opinion, there is no substantial reason why I cannot say YES to BBL after reading and understanding the draft. Don’t
