Luuk is one of the poorer towns of Sulu and only recently, under a mayor described as "development-oriented," has it seen new structures rise (public market, school, police station, street lights, concrete roads) and improved services (water supply, electricity, cable TV in barangays, irrigation) reach an otherwise static place.
Sulu is predominantly Muslim and is host not only to the Abu Sayyaf but to another anti-government armed group as well, the Nur Misuari faction of the Moro National Liberation Front.
Gen. Narciso Abaya, Southcom chief, said Sulu and Basilan differ in history and demography, but this will not make the Balikatan in Sulu "more complicated." There are hardly any Christians who can be used as human shields in Sulu, he pointed out, thus it may be easier to pursue the Abu Sayyaf.
