In her briefing Tuesday, Miriam Coronel-Ferrer, head of the government’s panel in the talks with the Moro Islamic Liberation Front, said:

“The signing of the “comprehensive agreement” is also our global contribution to the pursuit of peace in our immediate neighborhood, the Southeast Asia region, and the rest of the world. The last momentous agreement of this kind was those sealed in Aceh, Indonesia between the Republic of Indonesia and the Free Aceh Movement in 2005.”
