Published December 14, 2020 6:10pm The Bangsamoro peace process is “fundamentally on track” but more work is still needed in the rehabilitation of Marawi, among other concerns, the Third Party Monitoring Team (TPMT) for the Bangsamoro Peace Process said Monday. In its sixth public report covering March 2019 to October 2020, the five-man TPMT said there was “significant progress in establishing the Bangsamoro as an autonomous political entity.” It welcomed the appointment of Bangsamoro Transition Authority (BTA) parliament members, the formation of a Cabinet for the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (BARMM), the creation of an Inter-Governmental Relations Body, and the passage of the Bangsamoro Administrative Code.
