Moro National Liberation Front

The Moro National Liberation Front or Mindanao National Liberation Front (MNLF) is a secessionist political organization in the Philippines that was founded by Nur Misuari in 1969. The MNLF struggled against the Philippine Government (GPH) to achieve independence of the Bangsamoro Land (or Bangsamoro Nation, or Mindanao Nation). The MNLF-GPH Peace Process is ongoing since the 1976 and both parties are working together to negotiate the terms and conditions of the legal framework and implementation of genuine autonomy as a peaceful path towards independence. As defined by the MNLF, the territory of Bangsamoro Land covers Sulu, Mindanao and Palawan.
