This year’s commemoration of Andres Bonifacio Day has been preluded by massive mobilizations in indignation against corruption such as anomaly in budget insertions, ghost flood control and farm to road projects.

Treading the path of the armed revolution means to live a life committed to defending the exploited and oppressed masses.

The National Democratic Front (NDF)-Negros denounced the recent scandalous move of Negros Occidental Gov.

The National Democratic Front (NDF)-Negros firmly salutes the people and their organizations in Negros Island for the temporary suspension of operations of Consunji-owned HAPI’s (Hacienda Asia Plantations Incorporated) oil palm plantation in Candoni, Negros Occidental.
