MARAWI CITY, Lanao del Sur, June 3 (PIA) --- In a bid to deepen public’s understanding on the Bangsamoro entity, public school teachers and city government officials gathered on Sunday, June 1, here for an education forum on Bangsamoro Basic Law (BBL).
Schools Division Superintendent Mona A. Macatanong said the gathering was intended to expand the knowledge and awareness of public school teachers on the BBL.
“As agents in the educational system, our teachers should be aware and informed on the changes in the government, they should learn what the comprehensive agreement on the Bangsamoro (CAB) is all about and how it will be implemented,” she said.
During the forum, former assemblywoman Samira Gutoc-Tomawis discussed the legal basis of the CAB. She also gave an overview on how the proposed Bangsamoro government will run through, and the benefits of the ministerial form of government.
Atty. Padoman Paporo, president of the Philippine Muslim Women Council, on the other hand tackled the difference between the Tripoli agreement and the CAB.
Meanwhile, City Mayor Fahad Salic commended the Marawi City Schools Division in initiating the forum.
Underscoring the importance of unity, the city mayor also called on the teachers to remain united and work collectively toward a better educational system for city constituents. (APB/PIA-10)
