Negotiations are ongoing between the government of the Philippines and the Moro Islamic Liberation Front. Moro spokesman Eid Kabalu said this week that negotiators were making some progress in sorting out the form that the new government would take:
Kabalu said negotiators were discussing how the Muslims will run the proposed new government, but he was quick to say that both sides are seriously studying new formulas based on model countries such as Sudan, Palestine, East Timor, Northern Ireland and Bougainville.Yep. He really said that. Model countries like Sudan.
And Northern Ireland.
And Palestine.
I know if I were designing what I hoped would become a peaceful and stable state, Palestine would be right at the top of my list of models. How about you?
