During the campaign, and even after he assumed office, President Duterte has repeatedly vowed to address the historical injustices committed against the Bangsamoro and to honor all signed peace agreements.
He also once said that, “Nothing can appease the Moro people except to address the ‘historical injustice’ committed against them.
Before Duterte gave his “pessimistic” remark to policemen in Camp Pendatun in Parang, Maguindanao on May 5, the 21-member Bangsamoro Transition Commission (BTC), the body tasked to draft the Bangsamoro Basic Law (BBL) as mandated by the CAB, has been holding committee hearings and according to BTC chair Ghazali Jaafar, will hold sessions on May 9 to 11 and will submit the draft BBL to the Office of the President in the first week of June, not May 15 or 18 as earlier planned, Mindanews also said in its report.
President Duterte also plans to call on all Moro revolutionary leaders to a meeting to come up with a consensus on how to move forward in implementing the legislation aspect of their peace agreements.
The MNLF faction under founding chair Nur Misuari, however, did not want to be part of the BTC. In November last year, Secretary Jesus Dureza announced a departure from the peace roadmap by creating a separate peace implementing panel for the MNLF-Misuari faction.
Secretary Jesus Dureza, Presidential Adviser on the Peace Process told MindaNews that there is an “urgent need for all Bangsamoro factions to converge in accordance with the Duterte peace roadmap.”
“We all have to pursue an ‘inclusive’ approach. Although we have diverse tribal groups, maintaining factionalism up to now as what happened in the past, will not help in effectively addressing what the President refers to as the historical injustice similarly and commonly suffered by all Muslims, irrespective of tribal or territorial entitlements,” Dureza said.

is coming from. Where is his campaign pitch to address historical

when he does not believe that this process is going anywhere by being
pessimistic about it?”, Mindanews quoting her saying.

Mindanao stakeholders confuse on Duterte’s “pessimistic” remark on Bangsamoro peace process
President Rodrigo Roa Duterte, tells policemen during his visit to the Police Regional Office-Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (PRO-ARMM) Headquarters in Parang, Maguindanao on May 5, 2017, that he is becoming “pessimistic” and “a little bit worried” on what will come out of the Bangsamoro peace process.
