Transcript
00:00 President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. encouraged the importance of the Moro Nation,
00:05 not only for peace and prosperity in Mindanao,
00:08 but also for the new Philippines.
00:10 Ken and Pachente will be back.
00:12 [Music]
00:14 A stronger bar means a stronger Mindanao.
00:17 A stronger Mindanao.
00:19 [Applause]
00:21 A stronger Mindanao means a stronger Philippines.
00:26 Bringing us closer to achieving our objectives.
00:30 That is what President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. encouraged
00:33 along with the 17th assistance of the National and Bangsamoro Governments Intergovernmental Relations Body or IGRB.
00:41 The President's commitment.
00:42 The IGRB is just showing the assistance of the government and the Bangsamoro
00:47 to promote the peace that there is progress in Mindanao
00:50 and ensure the peaceful life of those in the BARMM.
00:54 Through this, there is a platform for discussing effective steps towards peace in the region.
01:00 The IGRB discussions, I understand, were frank and forthright.
01:06 And that, my friends, is how peace is forged.
01:09 Through the honest exchange of ideas.
01:12 That is also how peace is made durable.
01:15 By allowing all parties to speak with canon.
01:19 This democratic hallmark of finding common ground
01:23 and consensus, not conflict,
01:25 is what also led to the rich harvest of Bangsamoro and Apted Laws.
01:30 The Executive Board of the Bangsamoro Transition Authority also recognized
01:34 the passing of various laws that will serve as a foundation for the peace and progress in the BARMM.
01:40 According to the President, a new Philippines cannot be formed without Bangsamoro.
01:45 That is why the government's commitment to strengthen the region
01:50 was strengthened by the help of Japan, JICA, United Nations, and European Nations
01:56 for various projects in the BARMM.
01:58 Another feather in your cap is the success of the Bangsamoro Board of Investments
02:03 in generating 3.3 billion pesos worth of investment in the last three months of 2023
02:11 which will employ 1,947 workers.
02:16 And I am sure these are just a few entries into your thick catalogue of achievements.
02:22 They just highlight the things that matter most to our people
02:26 for whom we are walking the hard but high road to peace.
02:30 According to the President, the BARMM has already set a long way.
02:34 This will be more evident in May 2025, the first election for the BARMM Parliament.
02:40 Giving the vote to the people to choose their leaders is the logical succession, evolution,
02:47 to the grant of self-rule to your land.
02:51 I urge all of you, and we will be by your side, to make this very historic election,
02:58 this very historical and important event, a success.
03:02 Let us show the world that it is peaceful and it is credible.
03:06 The President reminds us not to let any force to destroy the desire for peace for BARMM.
03:12 Let us not allow even one single voter to be disenfranchised by violence, by intimidation, or by bribery.
03:24 That is the job we have in front of us.
03:27 And after the election, it will be a new chapter for BARMM.
03:31 I face the future with optimism.
03:33 What gives me hope is the belief that you have prepared well.
03:37 You are right. You are ready.
