Utang na hindi na nga napakinabangan, mamamayan pa ang magbabayad
October 07, 2022 | National Democratic Front of the Philippines | NDF-Bicol | Ma. Roja Banua | Spokesperson |

Baung-baon na sa utang ang Pilipinas. Sa pagtatapos ng 2022, aabot na sa lampas P13.4 trilyon ang utang ng bansa. Katumbas ito ng higit P120,000 utang bawat Pilipino. Ngunit sa kabila ng nakalululang halagang ito, binigyang-prayoridad pa rin ng rehimeng Marcos II ang pagbabayad-utang para muli na namang makautang ng mas malaki pang halaga. Para […]

Debts which the Filipino people did not benefit from but will be paid by them
October 07, 2022 | National Democratic Front of the Philippines | NDF-Bicol | Ma. Roja Banua | Spokesperson |

The Philippines is entirely covered with debts. By yearend 2022, national debt will already amount to P13.4 trillion. This is equivalent to more than P120,000 debt per Filipino. But despite this already staggering amount, Marcos II regime still prioritized debt payments to improve its credit standing and be able to borrow even larger sums of […]

Neutrality is different from impartiality: An Open Letter to all Bikolano journalists
October 05, 2022 | National Democratic Front of the Philippines | NDF-Bicol | Ma. Roja Banua | Spokesperson |

Make no mistake. Neutrality is different from impartiality. Impartiality allows truth to be told and justice to prevail. It gives chance for the disenfranchised. It gives voice for those who are silenced. It empowers the public. No matter how powerful, the impartial will hit those who have done wrong hard and relentlessly. No matter the […]

Ang hindi pagpanig at ang pagiging patas ay magkaiba: isang bukas na liham para sa mga Bikolanong mamamahayag
October 05, 2022 | National Democratic Front of the Philippines | NDF-Bicol | Ma. Roja Banua | Spokesperson |

Huwag tayong magkakamali. Magkaiba ang hindi pagpanig at ang pagiging patas. Ang pagiging patas ay nagbibigay daan sa katotohanan at katarungan. Binibigyan nito ng pagkakataon yaong mga nasa laylayan ng lipunan. Binibigyan nito ng boses yaong mga pilit na pinatatahimik. Binibigyang-lakas nito ang publiko. Gaanuman kamakapangyarihan, ang patas ay magsasalita laban sa mali nang buong-diin […]

Mahigpit na nakikiisa ang NDF-Bikol sa panawagang katarungan para kay Percival ‘Percy Lapid’ Manabas, isang batikang mamamahayag. Siya ang pinakabago sa mahabang listahan ng mga pinaslang na kagawad ng midya sa bansa. Ipinaaabot din ng NDF-Bikol ang pakikiramay sa pamilya ng napaslang. Gayundin, ang pagsuporta sa kampanyang itigil na ang pang-aatake sa mga tagapagtaguyod ng […]

Dapat salubungin ng paglaban ang 100 araw ni Marcos II sa pwesto
October 01, 2022 | National Democratic Front of the Philippines | NDF-Bicol | Ma. Roja Banua | Spokesperson |

Nangyari ang hindi inabot ng hinagap ng marami. Makalipas ang tatlong dekada, isa na namang Marcos ang nakaluklok sa kapangyarihan. Kasama niya sa trono ang anak ng tiranong si Sara Duterte. Magkasama nilang ipinagpapatuloy ang pagpapasahol ng sistemikong panunupil ng estado, pagbago sa kasaysayan at malubhang pagsasamantala sa masa. Pero hindi pa tapos ang laban […]

Marcos II’s 100 days in office must be met with all out resistance
October 01, 2022 | National Democratic Front of the Philippines | NDF-Bicol | Ma. Roja Banua | Spokesperson |

What many have thought to be unimaginable has happened. After more than three decades, another Marcos has been installed in power. Accompanying him on the throne is the tyrant’s daughter, Sara Duterte. Together they continue escalating the systemic state repression, historical distortion and the gross exploitation of the masses. But the nation’s fight is far […]

Magtulungan ang mamamayan sa panahon ng sakuna! Igiit sa gubyerno ang pananagutan sa pagharap sa sakuna at rehabilitasyon!
September 26, 2022 | National Democratic Front of the Philippines | NDF-Bicol | Ma. Roja Banua | Spokesperson |

Hinihikayat ng NDF-Bikol ang masang Bikolano na tulungan ang isa’t isa sa harap ng pananalasa ng superbagyong Karding. Gaya ng iba pang mga kalamidad at suliraning kinaharap ng bansa gaya ng pandemyang Covid-19, tiyak na ang pinakamalaking pinsala ay mararamdaman ng pinakamahihirap na sektor ng lipunan. Sa gitna ng sala-salabat na krisis panlipunan, ang pananalasa […]

The people must help each other in times of disaster! Demand the government’s accountability on disaster response and rehabilitation!
September 26, 2022 | National Democratic Front of the Philippines | NDF-Bicol | Ma. Roja Banua | Spokesperson |

NDF-Bikol rallies the Bikolano masses to help each other in the wake of supertyphoon Karding. Just like in previous calamities and adversities the country faced such as the Covid-19 pandemic, the worst damages will be felt by the most disenfranchised sectors of society. Amidst all societal crises piling up on each other, the typhoon’s destruction […]
