HFMP National Convenor Peter Lavina told over 100 delegates from eight regions of Luzon and sectoral representatives that many challenges lie ahead that must be faced by the grassroots movement.
He cited the work now being done by the Consultative Commission headed by former Chief Justice Reynato Puno, the convening of Congress as a Constituent Assembly, the presentation of the new Charter to a people's plebiscite and the Transition towards a shift to the federal system.
He said with the continuing efforts of HFMP and other groups in pushing for Federalism and the determination of President Rodrigo Duterte, real changes in our government system will truly come.
The Luzon Summit was attended by special guests DILG Assistant Secretary Epimaco Densing III and the Administrator of the Local Water Utilities Administration, Jeci Lapus, who is Head of the HFMP Political Affairs Committee.
