The Philippines Congress passed Republic Act 6734 (1989) and conducted a plebiscite on 19 November 1989 to determine the autonomous areas. Only four of the thirteen provinces envisioned in the 1976 Peace Agreement voted to be included in the ARMM. To accommodate the provisions in the 1996 Final Peace Agreement, RA 6734 was amended into RA 9054 as a new Organic Act on 13 March 2001. Only five provinces and one city voted to constitute the ARMM in a plebiscite on 14 August 2002. Meanwhile, the idea of establishing the National Reconciliation Commission (NRC) was initiated by 144 lecturers from 20 universities who sent an open letter to Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra on 14 November 2004. The letter called for a public apology to the victims of the Tak Bai incident and a review of the policy on the Southern Border Provinces, including setting up an NRC. The Prime Minister appointed the NRC on 25 March 2005. This study has the following objectives: (1) to find out how the government policies of the ARMM and the NRC came about; (2) to explain the implementation of the ARMM and the NRC; and (3) to describe the effectiveness of the ARMM in resolving separatism in Bangsamoro in the Southern Philippines and the NRC contribution to peace building in Southern Thailand. This research has three significant parts, as follows: (1) It identifies the roles of the ARMM and the NRC as peace institutions in peace building and development programs; (2) It emphasizes the importance of having the central and local governments evaluate the effectiveness of the ARMM and the NRC; and (3) It proposes alternative policies in coping with the political violence problem both in the Southern Philippines and Southern Thailand. This study is conducted using qualitative methods. The data collection methods were a study of the literature and in-depth interviews with stakeholders that are involved in the conflict in the Southern Philippines and Southern Thailand. The informants who were interviewed included government officials, NGOs, local leaders, and the liberation front. The research sites were Manila, Cotabato City, Marawi City, Davao, and Iligan City in the Philippines, and Bangkok, Pattani, Narathiwat, and Nakhon Sri Thammarat in Thailand.
