Mangmang at walang malasakit sina Sen. Cynthia Villar at Cong. Sandro Marcos para manawagang kumain na lamang ng kamote at magtanim ng dragonfruit ang mahihirap upang hindi magutom na para bang napakasimple ng solusyon sa kagutuman. Palibahasa’y sila ang nasa tuktok ng tatsulok. Hindi sila nakararanas mapuyat kaiisip kung saan kukuha ng makakain kinabukasan. Hindi […]
Sen. Cynthia Villar and Cong. Sandro Marcos’ are fiercely insolent and apathetic in telling the poor to eat camote and plant dragonfruit to avoid hunger as if the solution to starvation is as simple as that. Of course they would as they are on top of the societal structure. They have not had sleepless nights […]
Kung may pagdududa pa ang ilan sa kabulukan ng kasalukuyang gubyerno, tiyak na naubos na sa walang katapusang pag-alingasaw ng katiwalian sa gitna ng imbestigasyon sa pagpatay kay Percy Lapid. Institusyunalisadong krimen, negosyo sa loob ng mga bilangguan, mga misteryosong tunnel at nagkakandamatay na mga preso – hindi na bago ang ganitong mga eskandalo sa […]
If there is any lingering doubt about the rottenness of this government, it most certainly had already been dispelled by the endless corruption scandals exposed during the Percy Lapid slay case investigations. Institutionalized crimes, thriving underground businesses behind bars, mysterious tunnels and several unexplained deaths of inmates – these types of scandals are not strangers […]
Labingwalong taon na ang nakararaan mula nang maganap ang madugong masaker sa Hacienda Luisita. Gayunpaman, sariwa pa sa gunita ng mamamayan ang brutalidad ng estado at ang inutang nitong dugo mula sa mga magsasaka. Pitong magsasaka ang nagbuwis ng buhay para igiit na madagdagan ang animo’y limos na P9.50 nilang sahod sa naturang azucarera. Sa […]
It has been 18 years since the bloody massacre in Hacienda Luisita. But the state’s brutality and its blood debts are still imprinted on the nation’s collective memory. Seven farmers have given up their lives to demand an increase to their alms-like P9.50 wage from the said azucarera. In the following months, eight more individuals […]
As the Kalinga government unit celebrates a supposed ‘return to glorious days of Balatoc through responsible mining,’ the Cordillera People’s Democratic Front issues a reminder that the mining operation in question indicates glory not for the people of Pasil but for the profit-hungry mining companies. Under the leadership of known Red-tagger Allen Capuyan, the National […]
To the masses of Southern Mindanao, the recent announcement by the AFP’s 10th Infantry Division of of keeping its forces, including detachments, paramilitaries and retooled community support program (RCSP) units, proves how hollow its barely month-old “insurgency-free” declaration truly is. In describing what they managed to achieve as “fragile peace,” the fascist hawks are themselves […]
Iligal na dinakip at pinalalabas na NPA surrenderee si Raffy “Pingping” Bago, isang kabataang Mangyan, ng pinagkumbinang pwersa ng AFP at PNP sa Brgy. Bonbon, Mansalay, Oriental Mindoro. Papunta sa koprasan noong umaga ng Nobyembre 9 si Pingping, 19 taong gulang at isang kabataang estudyante, nang makasalubong niya ang nag-ooperasyong pwersa ng AFP-PNP MIMAROPA. Dito […]
Isang malaking kabalintunaan at gatasan ang hungkag na kampanyang kontrainsurhensya ng gubyerno. Patunay ang pagpapakabundat ng mga makinarya ng pasismo sa limpak-limpak na pondo para umano sugpuin ang komunismo. At upang bigyan matwid ito ay gumawa ng salamangka ng kayabangan na limang larangang gerilya na lamang umano ang natitira sa mga rebolusyonaryo. Kung totoong tinataya […]
