Search on for 12 Outstanding Muslims

BAGUIO CITY – Nominations are now being accepted for the 12 Most Outstanding Muslims in the Philippines.

Sultan Moh’d Amin Baab Torres, whose foundation, the Sultan Moh’d Amin Baab Torres Foundation, is coordinating the search, said the event is meant to raise community awareness for their Muslim brothers and sisters.

The search is open to all Filipino Muslims who are involved in the promotion, preservation and development of Muslim culture and Islamic heritage, Torres said.

"We want to erase the misconception and perception that they (Muslims)are being humiliated and discriminated," he added.
