On behalf of the Office of the Presidential Adviser on Peace, Reconciliation and Unity, I congratulate the members of the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) and Moro National Liberation Front (MNLF) for passing the National Police Commission’s (NAPOLCOM) Special Qualifying Eligibility (NSQE) Examination that was held on May 29, 2022.

Passing the NSQEE is part of the initial steps in the application process of MILF and MNLF with the Philippine National Police (PNP) as contained in NAPOLCOM Resolution No. 2022-0081 “Prescribing NSQE as Appropriate Eligibility for Temporary Appointment to the Rank of Patrolman/Patrolwoman in the PNP for members of the MILF and MNLF.”

The entry of MILF and MNLF members into the PNP is integral in the implementation of signed peace agreements, specifically as provided under Article 11, Section 2, Paragraph 3 of the RA 11054 or the Bangsamoro Organic Law (BOL).

The entry of qualified MILF and MNLF members into the PNP will help realize the meaningful transformation process for these former combatants, and is a testament of our collective aspiration of bringing a just and lasting peace to the region and to the whole country.

Let us continue to support each other and work together to uplift the lives of the Bangsamoro people.

To our dear MILF and MNLF aspirants, may Allah (SWT) grant you the wisdom, strength and fortitude to successfully complete and pass the selection process so that you will have the opportunity to serve and protect your people, and become instruments of peace, reconciliation, and unity across the country. ###
