After more than four decades of conflict in southern Mindanao, peace is within reach. On 15th October 2012, the Philippine government signed a framework agreement with Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) that made way for the creation of Bangsamoro, a new autonomous political entity.

This gives rise to hope an end to the longstanding conflict but the peace process is susceptible to a relapse if the framework does not bring immediate and tangible change on the ground.

Cynthia Ng talks to Murad Ebrahim, Chairman of the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) & Tengku Datuk Abdul Ghafar Tengku Mohamed, the Malaysian facilitator in the Mindanao Peace Process.
