Post-AlBarka Guideline in Entering MNLF or MILF Villages

This article is transfered to MNLF Blogsite at http://bangsamoromnlf.blogspot.com/2011/10/post-albarka-guideline-in-entering-mnlf.html

AFP and PNP lack know-how to arrest wanted MILFs

Ang isang MILF zone ay parang reservation area yan ng mga lion, tiger, annaconda, at iba pang mga dangerous na mga nilalang na kailangan din respetohin ang habitat nila. Delikado pumasok dyan na mag sneak in ka na walang proper coordination with the zoo keeper. Ang Ceasefire Agreement ay may mga provisions dyan kung papano ang safety procedure kung merong isang lion dyan sa loob na kailangan hulihin at ilabas. Pag pumasok ka dyan at hindi ka sumunod sa procedure, mabubulabog yan sila at talagang kakagatin ka ng mga lion dyan. Pag mabulabog yan, mahirap patahimikin yan.

QUESTION: Sir John, sinabihan po ng GPH ang MILF na isurrender ang mga members nila na may warrant of arrest, ano po masasabi mo? ANSWER: Etong GPH po ay palaging mali, ewan ko kung bakit, hindi sumusunod sa procedure. Kung hindi nag-kulang ehhh sumosobra naman po. Wala po sa Ceasefire Agreement na "ISURRENDER" ng MILF ang mga tao nila. Ang nakasulat po ay mag-coordinate ang GPH ng maayos sa MILF Peace Panel kung meron silang gustong arestohin sa loob ng kampo ng MILF.Pwede naman daw po pumasok sa loob ng MILF camp ang GPH para mang-arresto ng mga wanted ng batas, basta may coordination lang. Ang trabaho na mag arresto ay trabaho yan ng GPH kasi batas nila ang nagpapa-arresto eh, hindi nila pwede ipasa yang arresting workload sa MILF kasi may conflict of interest ang MILF dyan sa aspeto na yan. Ang kabobohan ay nakamamatay.

Mga sirs, MNLF Director po ako, hindi po ako MILF. Halos magkapareho lang po ang procedure ng MILF and MNLF. I don't speak in behalf of MILF po. Nakikilahok lang po ako rito kasi po gusto ko ng kapayapaan, isang paraan po ay pag-educate ng ...public na meron naman po risk-free and 100% effective na procedure kung papano po mag arresto ng tao na nasa loob ng MILF Camp. Ang problema po ay karamihan sa ating mga Officers sa AFP ay hindi po na-train or na-briefing kung papano po ang procedure, kaya po sila nalalagay sa alanganin (baka sinadya po ng mga commanders nila na gusto gumawa ng eksena para magka-gyera). Ako na lang po ang mag train sa kanila para po hindi sila ma disgrasya. Eto po ang step by step:

1. Kumuha muna ng original copy ng Warrant of Arrest galing sa Court.

2. Bigyan po ng copy ng warrant ang MILF Peace Panel, huwag kalimutan ipa-tatak-received.

3. Pwede na po magsimula na po ang informatin gathering kung saan nagtatago ang Wanted.

4. Pag matuntun na po ang Wanted sa isang MILF Camp, pwede na po puntahan ng GPH Agents (say AFP or PNP) ang nasabing MILF Camp. Sa front gate po dadaan at kakatok ang GPH, huwag po mag sneak in sa likod. Pagmakaharap na ang Gate Guard ng MILF Camp, pwede na po ipakita ang Warrant of Arrest na may tatak "Received" ng MILF Peace Panel. Pag magtanong po ang MILF Camp Commander, pwede naman po gamitin ang cellphone para tawagan ang MILF Peace Panel.

5. Papapasukin po ng MILF yang GPH Agents sa Camp nila pag sumunod po sa tamang procedure. Risk-free po pag sumunod lang sa procedure.

We want Independent Mindanao. A Mindanao National Government (MNG) with 20 Million Population will have a better chance of success compared to a Philippine National Government (PNG) that manages 100 Million Population. PNG resources is very scarce, and Mindanao being the host of the people regarded by Philippine society as 2nd class citizens, will always be at the bottom of the foodchain. We will achieve an Independent Mindanao in a peaceful manner, I hope you won't mind us abandoning the rotten system of the Philippine Society.

Etong paghihiwalay ay politika lang eto. Hindi kailangan mag-patayan. Sana magkahiwalay tayo na magkayakap, umiiyak na magkakapatid, na mamimiss ang isa't isa. Ayaw naming magkahiwalay tayo na magkalaban kasi magiging magkapitbahay pa naman tayo. We want us to separate as best friends.

Please don't vote for politicians, who advocate war in Mindanao. Pati mga nepotistic family members nila, huwag na rin yan sila iboto. Ang mga politikong yan ay merong link yan sa payroll ng mga dealers ng military weapons of mass destruction. Keep your eyes open, read the news, be ready with your ballpen and notebook, list down their names.

My message to the MILF is simple, "If the Philippine Government will unilaterally scrap the ceasefire and declare all-out-war against you on their one-sided reason that the Filipino people and media brand you as terrorists, then it is better that you move your entire 30,000 Mujahideens silently to Metro Manila and do the all-out-war in the urban, in this way no civilian communities will be affected in Mindanao. You will still be branded as terrorists whether the war is in Manila or in Mindanao. If the people of imperial manila enjoys instigating the Philippine Government to declares war, let their communities enjoy the experience of it, bring the war to them, keep our homeland Mindanao away from the war."

The Proper Way of Peace Process Activities

ETO ANG TAMANG PROSESO! Kapag merong Peace Process Activity (PPA) ang GPH like Peace Talk or Negotiation, pa-sulatin nyo muna si GPH ng FORMAL INVITATION naka-address sa MNLF. I-forward ang letter ng GPH sa akin, kasama ng listahan ng name and address ng lahat na MNLF Leaders, Commanders, and Negotiators na gusto mag-attend. Then I will consolidate a QUOTATION OF EXPENSES to cover the travel, accommodation, and allowance ng mga mag-attend. I will send the INVOICE BILL to the GPH. Walang mag-aatend pag hindi nag-bayad in advance ang GPH. Ipunin natin yang lahat na INVOICE BILL na yan na hindi pinopondohan ng GPH para meron tayong EVIDENCE na i-present sa BUONG MUNDO na yang GPH na yan ay WALANG PEACE PROCESS FUND.

The following must be funded sa lahat na participants:

1. Transportation from Home to Airport (Actual Rate), Airport to Hotel, Hotel to PPA Venue, PPA Venue to Hotel, Hotel to Airport, Airport to Home.
2. Plane Fare and Terminal Fees (Actual Rate)
3. Hotel Accommodation (P1,000 per night)
4. Food (P150 per meal from home departure to home arrival)

Gagawa tayo ng FORM na kompletohin ng mag-aattend para yun ang basis ng magkano ang isisingil natin sa GPH.

Lahat na Leaders, Commanders, Negotiators, Advocacy Communicators na gusto mag-attend, lahat dapat maka-alam ng schedule of event para maka-signify yung gusto mag-attend.

Kung gusto ng Filipino People ng PEACE PROCESS ACTIVITIES, dapat pondohan nila. They should put their money where their mouth is. Let's put the taxes to proper work here.

Walang Centralized Committee na makakapag-pigil, mag-discriminate, or mag-filter ng mga gusto mag-attend. Lahat na gusto maki-alam, pwede mag-attend.

Lahat na PPA, dapat six months ahead merong nang schedule and venue na i-publish ng GPH na ipadala sa MNLF ang invitation. SIX MONTHS AHEAD. Ayoko yang nangyayari ngayon na parang KABIT lang ang MNLF na kung kailan gusto ura mismo papupuntahin at sisipingin ng GPH eh pupunta naman ang MNLF -- ang nangyayari ngayon ay KAWALAN YAN RESPETO ng GPH sa MNLF -- dapat baguhin yan.

Hindi rin maganda yang ipinapakita ng MNLF na mga GATE-CRASHER sa mga PPA. Pag gusto mag-attend, dapat mag-signify in advance para hindi kulangin ang mga seats, snacks, and food that will be prepared ny the GPH sa event.

MNLF Must Stop Attending Peace Process Activities

I was wrong in my impression that the Office of Presidential Adviser on Peace Process (OPAPP) is administering the fund for the Peace Process Activities (PPA) such as Peace Talks. I was informed recently that the participant peace-keepers of the MNLF (Negotiators, Advocates, Leaders, and Commanders) are using their PERSONAL MONEY to attend Peace Process Activities with the GPH. The OPAPP has P250Million Fund each year from the taxes of our people, but instead on spending it to sustain the participants of the PPA, they are using the fund to DSWD/NHA-like give-away operation to the Barangays which they call PAMANA Project. I will advice the MNLF to stop attending PPA until the GPH allocates a fund to sustain the peace-keepers of the MNLF.

Dito sa PAMANA napupunta ang huge chunk ng OPAPP annual budget na P250M, eto ay mga subsidized Affordable Housing Project na dapat trabaho eto ng National Housing Authority. Kaya napabayaan ng GPH ang PPA dahil sa mga project na eto na hindi naka-align sa PPA. Suma-total, walang budget for PPA, naalala nyo yung MNLF-GPH Peace Talk sa Tagaytay, kapranggot na pansit lang na walang sahog pina-kain sa inyo for lunch ng OPAPP, wala pang subsidy ng transpo and accommodation ang mga MNLF Leaders from Mindanao na dumalo. Ang MNLF ay hindi dapat gumamit ng personal money para mag-attend ng PPA, pobre na nga tayo eh we are subsidizing pa GPH obligations to implement PPA.

Ang Peace Process, initiative yan ng GPH, programa yan ng GPH na pinagmamayabang nila ang accomplishment sa buong mundo, si GPH may gusto nyan, si GPH dapat popondo nyan sa lahat na mga leaders ng MNLF na may karapatan maki-alam at mag attend ng mga PPA. Noong 1994, kasama sa Ceasefire Agreement na hindi na kailangan mangolekta ng donation ang MNLF sa grounds, iyan ay dahil PEOPLES TAXES na ang bahala sa mga gastusin sa entire PPA. Ang nangyari, na BUKULAN ang MNLF, sinolo ni GPH ang pondo para sa PPA, or ginagastos para sa ibang bagay na walang kinalaman sa PPA. Hehehe 35 years na NAPAKALAKING ANOMALY, kaya pala hindi tinatapos ni GPH ang Peace Talk kasi may na-gagatas sila habang tumatagal.

With this anomaly, I will discourage the MNLF to attend all of these PPA activities:

(1) Collection of sentiments from members that is related to Peace Process,
(2) Internal organizational status update briefings about the progress of Peace Process,
(3) Internal deliberations and consensus conferences on Peace Process issues that need to be resolved,
(4) Communication and advocacy gatherings that will promote confidence-building in the Peace Process,
(5) Public expositions and consultations that will encorage democratic participation in Peace Process, and
(6) Dialogues in the formal negotiating table that will put flesh on the legal framework of Peace Process.


The MNLF should stop wasting their PERSONAL MONEY in attending PPA organized by the GPH or whatever mediator organization who have good diplomatic relations with the GPH, whether that be a formal negotiation, public consultation, or even a round-table discussion. The GPH is using those activities as a reason to get funds from the people's taxes, but they are not spending the taxes for such purpose, and instead, they use the funds to finance private businesses of their friends who are not in any way connected with the PPA. We are talking about P255Million OPAPP fund here from taxpayers that are not spend for the PPA.

We shall not allow ourselves to be USED. We will not tolerate systematic CORRUPTION. I will advise the MNLF to spend their resources, instead of paying for airfares to attend PPA, it is best that they rather spend it for food on the table of their own family, and in sharing a little for our brothers and sisters who need charity.
