The proposal would carve out a new Moro Province from eight municipalities in the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region, give it its own capital (Pahamuddin), its own congressional seat, and set up a full provincial government with appointed officials, fire stations, a jail, and a separate school division. A plebiscite of local voters must approve the change, and the new province would be barred from raising local tax rates for five years after it is created.
