GS28038815   visits Manila and officially invites President Corazon Aquino

             Liberation Front (MNLF) demonstrate their anger at Aquino's
             decision to set up regional consultative committees to take
             care of religious minority interests rather than grant the
             Muslim fundamentalists the independent homeland in Mindanao
             they have been fighting for since 1973. date shot 25.3.88
