But more than two years after he assumed office, Duterte has instead disappointed several peace advocates and workers in Mindanao, as one major incident after another continue to threaten Mindanao&#8217;s overall peace and security challenges.  In this presentation, Prof. Rufa C. Guiam will provide some background information and analysis on the nature of the armed conflicts in southern Philippines especially in the Bangsamoro (Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao and related areas), and discusses continuing challenges to Mindanao&#8217;s peace and security situation.  She closes the presentation with several opportunities that are currently in place in many institutions in Mindanao, and of the growing consciousness of the distinctiveness of the Bangsamoro identity vis-a-vis that of the Filipino national identity, as well as of some incremental gains achieved through the peace implementation panels of both the Philippine government (GPH) and the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Works by Prof. Rufa Cagoco-Guiam<\/strong>:<br \/>\n&#8220;A Deadly Cocktail?
