The Moro Islamic Liberation Front is a group based in Mindanao seeking an autonomous region of the Moro people from the central government. The group has a presence in the Bangsamoro region of Mindanao,the Sulu Archipelago,Palawan,Basilan,and other neighbouring islands. The armed wing of the group was the Bangsamoro Islamic Armed Forces (BIAF),although the name of its parent organization,the MILF,was often used to refer to the BIAF. In July,2018,the Philippine government passed the Bangsamoro Organic Law,giving more autonomy to Muslims. In return,MILF announced that it would disarm its 30,000 fighters.
The Moro National Liberation Front Executive Council of 15 is a faction of the Moro National Liberation Front (MNLF) in which the group of 15 leaders forged a unity agreement with the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF). The agreement was signed in Kuala Lumpur and coincided with the Filipino President's visit. Muslimin Sema is the current chairman of the group. The government of the Philippines recognizes Sema along with Misuari as representatives of the MNLF despite the recognition of Nur Misuari as chairman by the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation,which the MNLF is an observer member to. Supposedly,Sema's group together with Habib Mudjahab Hashim's MNLF Islamic Command Council (ICC),somewhat agreed to reunite with the MNLF under Misuari.
