"The Philippines was a colony of the United States in the early 20th Century and Washington started settling Christian families in the south, where Muslims were once in a majority."

Interesting comment.

The people in the Philippines should be aware that as the years pass illegal immigration from bordering countries, poor education, highest birth rates in the region, forced conversions to Islam, intimidation tactics forcing Christians to leave the area, a 50% unemployment rate, institutional corruption, arming of the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) (I could go on and on) could affect the demographics of their south.

Ultimately, war breaks out and eventually a new state will be declared.
