PROF. TIMOTHY R. MONTES
University of the Philippines Mindanao
“ Th e word ‘Mindanao’ is more than just a geographic “
place: it is a landscape of the imagination being
shaped by its history, its politics, its art, and its
cultural pluralism. Mindanao’s dream of peace
and progress will not be defi ned by legislation and
military tactics but also by the articulations of its
homegrown intellectuals. Mindanao, in a way, is
still being dreamed into existence.
