Optimizing Opportunities in the ARMM

"...and it may be that you dislike a thing which is good for you and that you like a thing which is bad for you. Allaah knows but you do not know." (Surah Baqarah: 216)



With that Notion, I am optimistic that some changes is possible if we will be able to optimize opportunities in the ARMM for the coming years


OPPORTUNITIES in Maguindanao - the command votes is minimize, ( I guess) election cheating, fraud, flying voters, vote buying, ghost voting and election related violence will also minimize (My prayer) with the automation of elections (perhaps)


People are vigilant. a sense of little hope that our votes will will be counted, at least.

* But when you look at the candidates in Maguindanao, most of them are old faces in the politics, traditional politicians who may just utilize this event for their turn to get power again.


My Proposal therefore is to have a Group of CSO leaders’ forum on Approaches for Optimizing Opportunities


One possible outcome the Forum will be a CSO Alliance or Political Party in preparation for the ARMM Election.


In this way, the like of Mr. Guiamel M. Alim, Prof. Moner Bajunaid, and Atty. Theng Ambolodto and Anwar Upahm will be push to serve the ARMM. While Atty. Anwar Malang bids to serve Cotabato City, Atty. Zen Malang is best alternative in the Congress. Brother Mujiv Hataman by the way is running for a gubernatorial set in Basilan, he deserve supports from us.


We need the idealism, dynamism, and youthful energy of these CSO leaders to transform ARMM from un-peace, corruption, poverty and poor education to prosperity, justice, development and peace.

Remember the Qur’an Verses:

[Allah will not change the condition of people as long as they do not change their state]


Now, who will change our conditions?
