How affected will the country be, esp Filipinos, if the MILF territories get separated from the Philippines?

Question

I live in the Luzon. I worry about the innocent people being killed because of the so called 'Peace-Talks' in Mindanao. But with regards to the Bangsamoro's petition to the Philippine government and how they seek support from Malaysia and Indonesia...I have gone tired with it and did not even bother checking most of the updates with it.

I know this is quite big still in Mindanao but are those in Luzon and Visayas are still in tune with this issue?

Just curious..

Answer 1

if you've read the provisions of the memorandum of agreement between the grp(government of the republic of the philippines)-milf(moro islamic liberation front), the grp has to pay reparations for properties that is impossible to be given back to the moro people.  it would be taxes of from people living in the visayas and luzon who would bear the brunt of paying reparations.

just like japan was obliged to pay reparations for world war II damage.  therefore, people in luzon and visayas,  you should also be aware of the contents of the memorandum of agreement.  this is not only a mindanao concern but your concern as well.

Answer 2

There's a good chance that "Morovia" would ask to be a member of the Malaysian federation.

There is also the chance that at least some of the 100 or so indigenous groups would want a homeland of their own.

What I don't understand is how can Mrs. Arroyo's legal department be so stupid as to be ignorant of what is in the Constitution. It's as plain as the nose on your face ~~~ either it's stupidity or it's treason.
