It took a while to set it up but the Bangsamoro Normalization Trust Fund (BNTF), a key instrument to support the peace process in the Bangsamoro region in Mindanao, was finally launched on May 19, 2021. 
“This has been much awaited,” said Murad Ebrahim, chief minister of the two-year-old Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (BARMM) during the virtual launch. He is also the chairman of the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF).
