President Benigno Aquino III set foot on the stronghold of the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) for the first time on Monday morning, February 11 for the launch of “Sajahatra Bangsamoro,” the government’s social welfare services program for MILF communities. Aquino is not the first president to set foot in an MILF camp but he is the first one to do so in peacetime. Monday’s visit comes at a time when both the government and the MILF look forward to the completion of the comprehensive peace agreement on the new Bangsamoro political entity by March 2013. Aquino shared the stage with MILF chief Al Haj Murad Ebrahim whose first visit to Malacañang happened at the Framework Agreement on the Bangsamoro (FAB) signing back in October 2012.
