                    [Summary] => Senate Minority Leader Aquilino Pimentel Jr. (PDP-Laban) batted for a three-step solution to the recurrent Muslim rebellion as he asserted that the use of superior force alone will not solve the problem.


Speaking at a forum on federalization sponsored by the Kusug Mindanao at the New World Hotel in Makati City last Friday, Pimentel said the use of all-out force against the Muslim uprising has never brought and will never bring peace to Mindanao unless a comprehensive plan is put in place to address the fundamental grievances of the Bangsa Moro as a people.
