In effect, the three foregoing facts are the underlying premises that
constitute the general framework of the Muslim struggle however
divided it seems are the various groups in their activities, leadership
roles, rhetorics, and approaches. There are no perceivable
indications that these premises are weakening. The contrary is what
is obviously emerging. There are several corroborative factors that
have contributed to the hardening of the independence imperative
of the Muslim struggle, peaceful or otherwise:
First is the inability of the State through the government and its
agencies to adequately or substantially meet the basic and ideal
needs of the Muslim Community. While the government has not
failed to initiate policies and draw up development plans along
constitutional lines administration after administration since 1946
has somehow ended with the centuries old Moro Problem still
unresolved. It is not easy and fair to altogether blame the
government on the Bangsamoro armed groups and their supporters
for the elusiveness and increasing difficulties of finding the
permanent or, at least, a relatively long enduring peace vital to the
kind of socioeconomic, political and cultural growth and progress
the Philippines desires.
Thank you.
