What was Mrs. GMA thinking when she had the bright idea of drafting Former British Prime Minister Tony Blair to help solve the Mindanao Peace Problem just because Mr. Blair happened to stop by the Philippines as part of a world speaking engagement?
That Mrs. GMA has to import foreigners, especially for their “charm and charisma” to help solve the peace problem in the south only horrifyingly shows that she has no idea of what she must do to achieve peace in the south.
Mr. Blair’s and even that of ex UN Sec Gen Kofi Annan’s involvement in Philippine affairs as Malacanang has proposed will not do a thing to move the peace process forward. However, by their association and no matter how little, they might deodorize a government with a questionned legitimacy.
To a regime desperately seeking legitimacy, maybe this will do.
