                    [Summary] => ZAMBOANGA CITY – Government peace negotiators are finalizing documents before facing the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) at the negotiating table in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.


Jesus Dureza, chairman of the government peace panel, said they are submitting the documents to the Cabinet Oversight Committee on Internal Security (COCIS) in preparation for the planned meeting with the MILF.

"It is more on the substantial agenda items which are actually a draft of what could be an outline of the final peace agreement," he said.
