Do Filipino disown the Moro race.

Question

Do Filipino disown the Moro race.

Answer 1

i think this is not an issue about religion.....only politics and the freedom to practice totally the laws of islam. There was a time  in history when the ilocanos and the bicolanos wanted a separate state because the government administration neglected them economically.

Answer 2

First off, there is no Moro race, and Filipinos do not disown the Moros - both Christian Filipinos and Muslim Filipinos are simply called as Malayo-Polynesians.

While the government may be disowning the Moro race through its inception of the Memorandum of Agreement with the second largest terrorist group in Southeast Asia, which is the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (which has also ironically been blocking Philippine observership in the Organization of Islamic Countries), most Filipinos don't disown the Moro race and don't want Mindanao to secede - in fact, most Filipinos, when asked, believe and will say that before the Spaniards came, we were all one people: Malayo-Polynesians of the Philippine Islands.

Answer 3

No.  Islam is part of our culture, even before the Spaniards came to town.

The other indigenous non-Islamic tribes in the South, and the Christians who now also occupy most of the territory in large numbers, along with our Muslim brohers, are also part and considered inseparable from the posterity of the Nation.

We shall never tolerate any outside interference no matter what form it might take,  be it a Memorandum of Agreement, or a Peace Accord, that might threaten the territorial sovereignty of the Republic.

Answer 4

No.  They are Filipinos, too and have as much right as we do.  They were born and raised in the country so that makes them natural Filipinos. It is only the dissidents that we detest because they create disunity among the people in the South.  However, to demand a separate republic for themselves go against the legality and constitutionality of the country.  If they deem themselves as Filipinos, then they must remain Filipinos, country and all, not on a separate island with their own constitution or government.  And please take note, there are also Christians on the island; we have to respect their decision to remain part of the Republic.

Answer 5

no. as long as any race or group of people is within the Philippine territories, we own them. i mean, we're one family, one nation. only different in beliefs and some culture.
