(Eagle News) –Several senators on Friday challenged those against the passage of a Bangsamoro Basic Law to visit Marawi City.
“Para sa mga tutol sa Bangsamoro Basic Law, please visit…. To end the extremist violence, please visit…and you will see ayaw ninyong mangyari ito sa inyo,” Senator Juan Miguel Zubiri said.
Senator Sonny Angara said agreed, noting that BBL critics should see the “extent of destruction” there.
“Para makita nila …kung gaano ka-grabe at kailangan yung recovery dito,” Angara said.
“Kung kontra sila sa BBL, dapat handa silang lumaban. Sila mismo ang handang lumaban sa mga darating dito na terorista,” Angara added.
Angara and Zubiri were among several senators who visited Mindanao in a bid to hold a public consultation on the BBL.
Earlier, the senators held a dialogue with Moro Islamic Liberation Front leaders, who expressed their gratitude to the government for its sincerity in ending violence in Mindanao.
