Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) Chairman Al-Haji Murad Ebrahim expressed confidence on the passage of an undiluted Bangsamoro Basic Law (BBL) when he addressed the foreign ministers’ meeting of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) in Kuwait City, Kuwait.
Speaking for the first time in the Pan-Islamic group’s gathering last Thursday, Murad told OIC foreign ministers of the still “unchanged destiny” of the Muslims in the Philippines, stressing that the “Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM) established in 1989 and later strengthened in 1996 failed to address the root causes of our grievances.”
“I address you today not only as chairman of the Moro National Liberation Front (MILF) but mainly in behalf of the Bangsamoro Coordinating Forum (BCF),” the MILF chief said at the closing day of the 42nd Session of the Council of Foreign Ministers (OIC-CFM) last Thursday.
“The passage of an undiluted BBL in sha Allah (God willing) will create a better tomorrow for the Bangsamoro,” said the MILF chief.
