Amplifying muted voices of marginalized Moro citizenry

Amplifying the muted voices of the marginalized Moro citizenry, I  view :

    - democracy not as a supremacy of the majority 50% plus 1. 
 
    - development not as longevity of lifespan neither of distance in longitude nor latitude of roads and bridges; 
 
    - peace amidst unpeace not perpetuated in the permanent war economy thriving amidst arms industry and arms trade.Total world spending on defense amounted to $1.63 trillion USD in 2010!  

I reiterate my stand :
With all due respect: The urgency of a separate and exclusive creation and establishment of HRO and HRC in ARMM including other parts of the Philippines, merely exposes the irony that the "HR in its universal concept and principle is generally NOT intrinsic in practice in our political/governmental system.

HR should have been integral and inclusive to EVERY legal department/division in ARMM and throughout the archipelago to fulfill, respect and promote the dignity of every Filipino regardless of faith. Right there and then, redress for HRV could have been served.

Thus, creating a semblance of equilibrium between  "respecting (rights of others)" vis a vis "asserting (one's own rights)." This must be paralleled by integrated HR approach in teaching.
