After more than a hundred years of silence, the Rajah Buayan Sultanate of Kudarangan, Rajah Buayan sa Buayan, Cotabato, Mindanao, sprang to life with the proclamation and installation of the 19th Sultan of Rajah Buayan this past weekend. Amid pomp and pageantry, Sultan Haji Mohamad Amir Blao Nandang Bin Tambilawan Bayao II received the crown, sash, belt and kris that symbolized his reign as Sultan of Rajah Buayan Sultanate of Mindanao Darrussalam.
The importance of the occasion was defined by the guest of honor and speaker, Saeed A. Daof, director general of the Center for the Promotion of Peace and Development in Mindanao (CPPDM). A keen advocate of “culture of peace,” and in ending the war in Mindanao, Daof called upon the Sultan and his constituents “to unite and exert every effort in focusing their attention towards socio-economic development and education of the people irrespective of creed, color and religion, and use Your Highness suasive influence in attaining a lasting peace that could lead to speedy development, progress, and prosperity not only of the Sultanate of Rajah Buayan, but the whole MINSUPALA region, and the country in general.”
