Buwan ng mga Magsasaka, buwan ng pakikibaka
October 21, 2022 | National Democratic Front of the Philippines | NDF-Bicol | Ma. Roja Banua | Spokesperson |

Ginugunita ng buong bansa ang Buwan ng mga Magsasaka nang mayroong kakambal na malaki at kritikal na hamon: mapagpasyang paglaban sa mga atake ng rehimeng Marcos II. Tulad ng kanyang ama, ang mga patakaran ni Marcos II ay pulos patakaran ng pang-aapi at pagsasamantala. Walang ni kaunting pagpapahalaga ang pinakabagong kinatawan ngayon ng mga naghaharing-uri […]

Peasant month, a month of struggle
October 21, 2022 | National Democratic Front of the Philippines | NDF-Bicol | Ma. Roja Banua | Spokesperson |

The country commemorates the Peasant month this year along with an urgent and critical challenge: decisively combat all attacks of the Marcos II regime. Like his father, Marcos II’s programs are wholly policies of oppression and exploitation. The ruling elite’s current head does not value the primary force of this nation – the peasantry. Marcos […]

AFP-PNP, tigilan na ang pang-aatake sa mga kagawad ng midya!
October 19, 2022 | National Democratic Front of the Philippines | NDF-Bicol | Ma. Roja Banua | Spokesperson |

Wala talagang patawad ang pagkaberdugo ng mersenaryong hukbo. Kahit ang pagkakapaslang sa mamamahayag na si Percival ‘Percy Lapid’ Mabasa ay ginamit nilang tuntungan para pailalim na makapangharas at maiparamdam ang kanilang pagmamanman sa mga kagawad ng midya. Ilang mga mamamahayag ang nagsiwalat na pinuntahan sila ng mga hindi unipormadong pulis sa kanilang mga pribadong tirahan […]

AFP-PNP, stop attacks on members of the press!
October 19, 2022 | National Democratic Front of the Philippines | NDF-Bicol | Ma. Roja Banua | Spokesperson |

The mercenary army’s thirst for blood really knows no bounds. They hijacked even the death of journalist Percival ‘Percy Lapid’ Mabasa to justify their cunning harassment and muscle-flexing against members of the press. A number of journalists have revealed that police elements in civilian clothing have recently visited their private residences under the guise of […]

Pagtaas ng presyo ng langis, pahirap sa masang Pilipino
October 18, 2022 | National Democratic Front of the Philippines | NDF-Bicol | Ma. Roja Banua | Spokesperson |

Mabuti pa ang presyo ng langis, big time kung magtaas. Pero ang kabuhayan ng karaniwang Pilipino kahit small time na pag-usad, wala. Sa halip, ibinunga ng tuluy-tuloy na pagsipa ng presyo ng produktong petrolyo ang lalo pang pagkakalubog ng mamamayan sa kumunoy ng kahirapan. Ang masahol pa, pinagsasabong ng gubyerno ang taumbayan. Hinahatak ang usapan […]

Oil price hikes, burden of the Filipino masses
October 18, 2022 | National Democratic Front of the Philippines | NDF-Bicol | Ma. Roja Banua | Spokesperson |

Oil prices have it better, its increases are always big-time. Meanwhile, the ordinary Filipino’s life has not had even progressed a bit. Instead, successive petroleum products’ price hikes cause the people to slip further down the quagmire of poverty. Even worse, the government pits the people against each other. It turns the issue between the […]

Hindi nakabubusog ang mga pangako ni Marcos II
October 18, 2022 | National Democratic Front of the Philippines | NDF-Bicol | Ma. Roja Banua | Spokesperson |

Nang tumatakbo pa lamang sa pagkapangulo, isa sa pinakaenggrandeng pangako ni Marcos II ang pagpapababa ng presyo ng bigas tungong P20. Ito raw ang uunahin niya sa panahong siya ay manalo. Tulad ng mga nauna sa kanya, nakalista lamang sa tubig ang pangakong ito. Kaisa ng masang Bikolano at ng buong sambayanang Pilipino ang NDF-Bikol […]

Marcos II’s promises cannot appease the nation’s hunger
October 18, 2022 | National Democratic Front of the Philippines | NDF-Bicol | Ma. Roja Banua | Spokesperson |

During his campaign, one of Marcos II’s most ambitious promises is to lower the price of rice to P20. He claimed that this will be on top of his agenda once he won. But just like all those who came before him, this promise just vanished to thin air. NDF-Bikol is one with the Bikolano […]

Digmang bayan, solusyon sa kagutuman at kahirapan!
October 16, 2022 | National Democratic Front of the Philippines | NDF-Bicol | Ma. Roja Banua | Spokesperson |

Oras-oras, minu-minuto, nakikipagbuno ang malawak na hanay ng mamamayang Pilipino laban sa kagutuman. Sa kalunsuran, hindi na maipag-iba sa pagkain ng hayop ang pagpag o tira-tirang pagkaing pantawid-gutom ng maralitang lunsod. Sa kanayunan naman, hindi man lamang natitikman ng mismong mga tagapaglikha ng pagkain ang kanilang pinaghihirapan. Sa kada araw na pakikipagtagisan sa kahirapan, literal […]

People’s war, solution against hunger and poverty!
October 16, 2022 | National Democratic Front of the Philippines | NDF-Bicol | Ma. Roja Banua | Spokesperson |

Hour by hour, minute by minute, the Filipino people is battling with hunger. In the city, animal scraps do not differ anymore from pagpag or leftover food eaten by the urban poor. Meanwhile, in the countryside, those who themselves produce food for the society are driven further from the fruits of their own labor. Every […]
