About Maguindanao
The Philippines is populated with many Roman Catholics, and so churches can be found almost everywhere. In the case of Maguindanao, however, instead of parishes and belfries, it has punctuating minarets and mosques. Visitors often see the Masjid dimaukom, famously known as the Pink Mosque, for its bright pink hues. Also of widespread interest is the mystical Blue Lagoon.
Of its dark past is the Maguindanao Massacre, which is also referred to as the Ampatuan Massacre. A mass grave of victims was found in 2009 in Ampatuan, Maguindanao. Among those killed were 58 people, including 32 journalists, making this incident the deadliest in news media history.
Lav Diaz, filmmaker of “Norte, the End of History” (entry to the 2013 Cannes Film Festival), Ameril Umbra Kato, founder of the Bangsamoro Islamic Freedom Fighters, and Samaon Sulaiman, a recipient of the National Living Treasure award for his mastery of the instrument Kutyapi, came from this province.
