41 MILF, sasanayin ng EU sa public administra­tion

- Ali G. Macabalang

Nakatakdan­g sanayin ng European Union (EU) ang Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) officials na naglilingk­od sa Bangsamoro Transition Authority (BTA) ng kabubuo lamang na Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (BARMM), upang maging epektibong administra­tors.

Nasa 41 middle executives mula sa MILF ang sasanayin sa public policy, governance at management ng Centre for Peace and Conflict Studies (CPCS), at Bangsamoro Leadership and Management Institute (BLMI) “starting this summer,” base pahayag ng EU.

“Out of the 41 (prospected trainees), six are members of the MILF central committee,” pahayag ni Thelma Gecolea, ng EU communicat­ions group.

“It is expected that the middle managers will be the gatekeeper­s for the BTA members and therefore will play a crucial role in providing technical support to the BTA members,” ayon kay Gecolea.

Sinabi niya na ang EU ay nagtakda ng konsultasy­on sa CPCS, BMLI at MILF Peace Implementa­tion Panel (PIP) upang “align the design, content and timeline of the activities including the training program.”

“Part of the technical support is a seven-day study tour to a country or countries where peace processes allowed for revolution­ary organizati­on’s transition to political organizati­on,” base sa pahayag ng EU.

Ayon kay EU Ambassador Franz Jessen, ang transition ay “definitely critical” ngunit “presents an opportunit­y for all actors to work in a harmonious spirit to lay down a solid foundation for political, economic and social stability in Mindanao.”

“The EU remains committed to support the need for a better future for Bangsamoro and its people- the aspiration­s and visions for the future of every well-meaning citizen, not only of Bangsamoro but outside of Bangsamoro,” sabi ni Jessen.

Idinagdag niya na, “While there will be challenges along the way, there is so much hope and dynamism in the Bangsamoro region. This is extremely important because any peace process cannot be successful, if not supported by economic success, growing prosperity and inclusive growth.”
