THIS is in response to the column by Ms. Ma. Lourdes Tiquia titled "An exit agreement in the BARMM by 2025" that was published in the Nov. 1, 2022 issue of The Manila Times. We wish to shed light on some of the concerns raised by the author in her column.

What we are most concerned about is the part where Ms. Tiquia remarked that "...peace should not be subjected to bureaucratic controls since the Bangsamoro Organic Law (BOL) already provided for the National Government-Bangsamoro Government Intergovernmental Relations Body (IGRB) and other IGR mechanisms to coordinate and resolve pressing issues through regular consultation and continuing negotiation."
