DAVAO CITY – The Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao has vowed to explore all avenues to resolve the issues surrounding the exclusion of Sulu from the region following the Supreme Court decision on September 9.
Ebrahim said that the landmark ruling has validated the decades-long peace process that led to the establishment of the Bangsamoro government. He said that Sulu is not just an essential component of the Bangsamoro by virtue of law but also by its deep historical and cultural ties to the Bangsamoro identity and struggle.BARMM spokesperson Mohd Asnin Pendatun said that the exclusion of Sulu doesn’t mean that there will be an abrupt disruption of government services in the province.
The exclusion of Sulu has left the BARMM with the provinces of Basilan, Maguindanao del Norte, Maguindanao del Sur, and Tawi-Tawi. The exclusion of Sulu, Loong pointed out, would eliminate seven parliamentary districts from the BARMM and subsequently the positions of representatives in the Bangsamoro parliament.
