IQBAL Curriculum Vitae

Honorable Mohagher M. Iqbal

A revolutionary, writer, peace negotiator, man of patience and living hero. 

“Mohagher Iqbal” is a nom de guerre for Datucan M. Abas [Lubis Abas] before he joined the Moro National Liberation Front in 1972], a member of the Central Committee of the Moro Islamic Liberation Front and chair of both its Committee on Information and peace negotiating panel. He joined the MILF in 1977, rose from the ranks and eventually became the group’s spokesperson, information chief and peace negotiator.

Iqbal used the pen name “Salah Jubair” in writing two books on the Moro struggle, namely, “Bangsamoro, A Nation under Endless Tyranny: History of the Muslims in the Philippines” and “Long Road to Peace: Inside the GRP-MILF peace process.” A month before the BOL plebiscite, the Centre for Peace and Conflict Studies (CPCS) released his new book entitled, “Negotiating Peace: An Insider’s Perspective to the Bangsamoros’ Struggle for Self-Determination.”
