Bangsamoro Government Center

The Bangsamoro Government Center, also known as the Office of the Chief Minister (OCM), or simply the Bangsamoro Office, is a government building in Cotabato City, Philippines. It serves as the executive office of the Chief Minister of the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao and formerly served as the executive office of Regional Governor of the now defunct-Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao. Nicknamed as the "Little Malacañan of the South", it was built in 1976 by then-President Ferdinand Marcos. The building was formerly known as the Office of the Regional Governor (ORG). The building was renamed as the Office of the Bangsamoro People upon the completion of its seven-month renovation on July 30, 2014. The building also includes a 200-square-meter (2,200 sq ft) prayer room.[2][3]
