Liberals cannot hide from history

As the administration pushes its new calculus for peace in Mindanao, counting on the leadership by Liberals of both houses of Congress for the passage of a Bangsamoro Basic law, Liberal Party leaders will increasingly discover that they cannot hide from history.

Sooner or later, they will learn to their discomfort that the rush to drop the Philippine claim to Sabah and create a Bangsamoro entity, is arrant betrayal of their party’s values and historic contribution to national life, and of the Constitution.
