It’s all out in the open now: the government will review the documentations relevant to the peace process with MILF. It is also seeking the help of MNLF. And there is absolutely no actual war in Mindanao; in fairness to blogger Girbaudz whose fearless forecast was that conflict will erupt in Mindanao and actually did, there were skirmishes. But these skirmishes do not make a real war. Girbaudz was right up to a certain extent. Or even possibly right all the way. As the situation stands, there is no authentic but a counterfeit Conflict now in Southern Philippines. And it is not the fault of government but the making of persons who would wish for destabilization to ruin this country. Read this post here…

Now I see what good will come out of the stupid ripostes in various fora about the Mindanao Peace Process. And it will be a lot of good, a really, really lot of good. I only recently made a comment in The Warrior Lawyer’s Blog. That simple comment gave me an inspiration to write this post.
