The ALL MORO ALLIANCE FOR REFORMS or AMAR stormed the High Court's offices today to demand for the immediate uplifting of the Temporary Restraining Order or TRO issued by the court enjoining the government not to implement RA 10153 which seeks to synchronize the ARMM elections with that of the national and local midterm elections in 2013.
The group accused the Supreme Court of being "anti-Moro". Question---was the decision really smacks of anti-Islamism? Yes.
The SC knew that a TRO would definitely place the entire peace process in jeopardy. Many Bangsamoros prefer to replace the current ARMM leadership with the ones they trust.
Many Bangsamoros prefer Eid Kabalu, the former spokesperson of the Moro Islamic Liberation Front to lead them as Governor and prepare ARMM for the 2013 elections.
What the Supreme Court did was a disservice to the people. The least that the Bangsamoro people need is an obstruction to the attainment of peace. This TRO came at the time when both the MILF and the GRP have both reached a compromise on how to solve the contentious issues of peace in that region.
A source say that it was the Arroyos who influenced the Supreme Court to issue that TRO. Now groups are frantic looking for other solutions or points to agree; and second, this could be used by other MILF groups in justifying their presumptions that the government is ill-advised and not totally honest in looking for concrete solutions to end the decades-old conflict.
Really, politics continue to monkey wrench its way against peace and development.
