Conflict in the Philippines has endured for five centuries. The contemporary conflict between the Government of the Republic of the Philippines (GRP) and the Islamic separatists in the Mindanao islands is the latest evolution of resistance in the Philippines. The GRP's enduring struggle with Islamic separatists has been exacerbated by the fits and starts at which the government attempts to arrive at negotiated settlements. Yet in this process, the GRP has experienced valuable lessons regarding the delicate combination of force, diplomacy and economic programs that are necessary in initiating and sustaining peace. While the elements of amnesty, reintegration and reconciliation (AR2) have been exercised in the Philippines, they have not been implemented as part of a cohesive conceptual construct. In the year 2010, the Philippines will hold its next presidential elections. In two years, the GRP will have the opportunity to inject new energy and resources into their current dilemma, a new initiative for peace within the construct of AR2 can succeed if it is pursued with sincerity and energy.
