Supreme Court is key to Bangsamoro problem

The filing before the Supreme Court of two petitions seeking to nullify the two agreements that the Aquino government signed with the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) is timely and a great service to the nation.

This is a necessary step toward resolving a highly anomalous situation, wherein the Philippine Constitution and the Republic’s territorial integrity have been placed at grave risk by a president hell-bent on ramming down the nation’s throat a Bangsamoro Basic Law (BBL) that would create a substate alongside the Republic of the Philippines.
