Abstract / Excerpt:

Before giving its point-by-point reply to the MNLF Proposal of February 20,1987, the Government Panel would like to state the basic principles that the Aquino Administration espouses in these talks.

President Corazon C. Aquino and her administration are deeply sympathetic to the demand of Muslim Filipinos for regional autonomy as a means of their achieving progress and correcting errors and injustices of the past. She believes that with their empowerment in the running of the affairs of their government and the support of the National Government under her direction, the poverty and retrogression of Muslim Mindanao can be reversed and replaced by the prosperity and progress of people.
