NAKATAKDANG bumoto bukas ang libong residente ng Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM) sa isang plebisito sa pagpapatibay ng Bangsamoro Organic Law (BOL).
Ang BOL ang magbibigay-daan sa pagpapalit sa ARMM na magiging Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (BARMM) na magkakaroon ng greater fiscal autonomy at sariling regional government, parliament at maging justice system.
Narito ang nag-iisang tanong na sasagutin ng mga botante bukas, ayon sa Commission on Elections:
“The plebiscite question will be in Arabic and Filipino; both languages will be used in the existing Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao areas while only Filipino will be used in the rest of the plebiscite’s scope. No ballots with English questions was printed.[24]
Voters in the existing ARMM will be only asked to answer one question:[14]
Payag ba kayo na pagtibayin ang Batas Republika Blg.11054 na kilala rin bilang “Organic Law for the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao
(Are you willing to adopt the Republic Act No. 111054 also known as “Organic Law for the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao)?”
Voters in Basilan will also be asked whether if they wanted to include the city of Basilan in the proposed Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in addition to the question above regarding their stance on the ratification of the BOL. The question will be presented as follows:
Payag ba kayo na isama ang lungsod ng Isabela, Basilan sa Rehiyong Awtonomo ng Bangsamoro
(Are you willing to include the city of Isabela, Basilan in the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region)?”
Plebiscite participants in the city of Isabela itself and Cotabato City will only answer one question; regarding if they favor their locality to be part of the proposed Bangsamoro Autonomous Region or not.”
