DAVAO CITY (MindaNews/12 April) – Two peace negotiators, one coming from the Philippine government and the other from the National Democratic Front (NDF) yesterday said the prospects for the recently resumed peace talks between the two parties were looking good.
GPH peace panel member Ednar Dayanghirang and NDF peace panel vice chair Fidel Agcaoili spoke in a forum yesterday at the Grand Men Seng Hotel here, on the updates of the peace process which resumed in Oslo, Norway in February.
Dayanghirang, however, said “kailangan din talaga ang (we really need) people’s participation” in building an atmosphere conducive to dialogue.
He said that based on lessons learned from the past negotiations it is necessary to secure parallel venues for the talks, acknowledge that military actions cannot resolve armed conflict, bring public voice to the negotiating table, and recognize the vital role of civil society and media."
