The Institute for Autonomy and Governance has released a report stating that the Special Geographic Area does not currently meet the population, land area, and income criteria necessary to be constituted as a province under the Local Government Code.

In a forum held at Notre Dame University (NDU) in Cotabato City, Atty. Benedicto Bacani, Executive Director of the Institute for Autonomy and Governance (IAG), shed light on the upcoming BARMM 2025 Elections and the associated challenges and opportunities.

Supported by the Australian Government, the forum provided a platform for stakeholders to discuss the challenges and opportunities arising from Sulu’s exclusion from the BARMM.

Christian Esguerra interviewed IAG Executive Director Benedicto Bacani to discuss calls for the postponement of the BARMM regional elections.

With support from the Konrad Adenauer Stiftung Philippines Office, IAG remains committed to fostering continuous discourse on Islamic law in the Philippines, ensuring it evolves to meet the needs of the community. We hope that discussions like this will contribute to paving the way for a more inclusive and well-understood legal system for Filipino Muslims
