The Council of 15 was the group of 15 leaders within the Moro National Liberation Front (MNLF) that forged a unity agreement with the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF). The agreement was signed in Kuala Lumpur and coincided with the Filipino President's visit. Muslimen Sema is the current chairman of the group.[1] The government of the Philippines recognizes Sema as the chairman and representative of the MNLF despite the recognition of Nur Misuari as chairman by the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation, which the MNLF is an observer member to.[2] Sema's group together with Habib Mudjahab Hashim’s MNLF Islamic Command Council (ICC), agreed to reunite with the MNLF under Misuari.[3]
