secession
this word came into my mind when i was reading the title of ramon tulfo's on target: mindanao to declare independence if pgma is ousted.
secession is the act of withdrawing from an organization, union, or political entity. typically there is a strong issue difference that drives the withdrawal.
pgma's ousting through mob rule is the strong issue difference mindanao will declare independence.
i know mindanao can stand on its own if it will secede from the philippines, considering its vast resources [forests, mines, aquatic resources, rice, bananas, copra and many more]. with an estimated population of 20 million [with 2 million muslim brothers], thats more than enough human resources.
65 percent of the philippine's gross domestic product are produced from mindanao but it's very sad to know that the second biggest island gets only 30 percent of the national budget and 15 percent of the proceeds from foriegn loans reaches mindanao.
though this issue is not new to me, a certain ruben canoy, a political figure from cagayan de oro city have been discussing this one, many many years back. now the idea is back again. two political figures, davao's proud mayor, rodrigo duterte and former congressman and transportation secretary pantaleon alvarez are strongly advocating the idea to fellow christians and muslim brothers to the plan of seceding from the philippine republic.
they said that almost 60 percent of the military assigned in mindanao are for it. insurgency problems will not be an issue considering muslims will rule themselves and christians theirs. a federal republic government will be installed if ever this will might happen, the one advocated by sen. aquilino pimentel . when this issue erupted many years ago as canoy as the proponent, people in mindanao are divided of the plan. with many problems that continue to bombard the country, graft and corruption, financial instability, scandals, unemployment and many others, i think 60 to 70 percent of mindanaons support the mindanao independence. i am also for it and don't ask me why and don't base my opinion because i'm from mindanao.
whoever might be our leader, this country remains as what we are today facing huge problems that it doesn't know how to solve it. oppositions [as name implies] are not even rallying and supporting its leader, yet they have to find ways to cripple leadership so that will rule next. filipinos are sick and tired of all of this.
mindanao is also sick and tired and running its own government will might solve the problem for mindanao. if mindanao will push through with the secession plan, philippines will be crippled considering the 65% domestic goods produced are from mindanao but it will save 30 percent from its national budget.
on a lighter side, you will need visa even if you only want to go to bohol [the summer fiesta capital].

what will happen to the people living in the visayas and luzon area then?
are going to bring passports when travelling from cagayan to cebu?
are you coming back to camiguin or cagayan de oro if that will happen? are you?
what will happen to the people living in the visayas and luzon area then? - i think the two will remain as philippines. i think, mindanao independence will give a big impact on the country, philippines.
are going to bring passports when travelling from cagayan to cebu? - maybe
are you coming back to camiguin or cagayan de oro if that will happen? are you? - yes of course, i do have plans on returning next year...
I am just so disappointed at how she's running the country. I thought she could run the country better than the men presidents, I was hoping she could take care of our country like a responsible mother do without nepotism at all. Was I wrong about her?
I have a sorority sister who died in a crossfire in MSU, the setting of the movie "Munting Tinig" was in Mindanao where a lot of military encounters were presented. My uncle who just graduated from PMA was shot in Mindanao in his office. Ahhh... too many bad memories about Mindanao.
Is there still hope of peace? I hope so, we all deserve not to live in fear. Don't the people in Mindanao have the right to safety and security too like everyone of us?
I am being idealistic...which is not realistic
