Duterte asks all fronts to stop war By Lilian C. Mellejor

DAVAO CITY -- President Rodrigo Duterte on Friday expressed determination to pursue peace as he urged all Moro fronts including the communist insurgents to stop the war.

Peace in Mindanao would also allow government troops enjoy the peace and go back to their respective families. If the groups agree to peace, President Duterte promised to lengthen Sulu’s airport runway and bring Arab investors. “I, we understand each other…stop this war. If you agree to peace I will lengthen your runway and bring Arab investors here,” he said.
