So you are just admitting MDS cannot solve internal insurgency problems of this country since you said "NO EASY WAY AROUND IT." well at least Du30 has action plans and if you are resourceful enough to watch the news the rebels as well as the moros have positive response to Du30 peaceful resolution some are even willing to give up arms struggle if he wins thats how confident they are to him. That being said, you can see that there is light by the end of the tunnel. Can MDS match that?? Let me remind you that insurgencies is one big factor that prevents nation building.. And FYI duterte is neutral and doesnt take sides since he is in the governement if you asked me what has he done?? Well he was able to negotiate the release of soldiers from being captive so many times and allow the NPA to visit his city as long as they don't create trouble to the citezens of davao as well as MNLF and MILF..
Watch AFP response about Du30 supporting NPA's hope this will enlighten you: [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-cfkNcnCnxs[/youtube]
I have heard about the news.. and I condemn NPA for doing that and it is the job of the police to investigate about the incident..
Sure, he had his hand in releasing hostages. Good! Thats it? Just because he can talk to them and negotiate the release of hostages you already believe that he can talk to them and convince them to entirely abandon their cause and lay down arms?
Again look at Davao. The NPA just attacked his very own beloved city. How can you believe without doubt that he can solve insurgency in the entire country when he cant even guarantee that his own city, a place where he served as mayor for very long, will not be attacked by a group that he had been talking to and negotiating with for a very long time as well?
The NPA just attacked davao city itself. Your city is not immune to insurgencies. After all the negotiating skills you are so proud of, your mayor have solved nothing.
