Dili na bag-o sa mga masa ang may mamatikdang nagpahi-ping tawo sa ilang komunidad. Siguradong may full operation na pod ang mga sundalo. Sayod si Nong Daniel, kalambigit na sad kini sa dinagkung pagmina. Dugay na kining plano sa gubyerno. Bisan wala pa ang bagyong Pablo, duna nay mga surbe-yor nga nanganhi. Nakadawat pod sila […]
It’s nothing unusual for the residents here to notice suspicious people lurking around their community. For sure, there’s a full military operation. Nong Daniel knows that this is surely connected to large-scale mining. This has been the government’s plan for quite some time. Even before Typhoon Pablo, mining surveyors had already come. The residents had […]
Daling naundang ang tingog sa chainsaw dihang may miabot nga mga tawo sa luna nga gipanggabasan og kahoy nila Noy Teodoro ug Oring. Nailhan ni Noy Teodoro ang niabot. Iyang mga si-lingan. Ang ilang Milisya. Mag duha ka semana na ang milabay human sa bagyong Pablo. Karon pa usab sila magkita. “Maayong buntag, Brad!” pagtimbaya […]
The sound of chainsaw came to a halt when the two men approached Noy Teodoro and Oring where they were sawing logs. Noy Teodoro realized it was their neighbors. Their militia. Almost two weeks had passed after Typhoon Pablo. They haven’t seen them until now. “Good morning, brod!” Noy Teodoro greeted his neighbors. “Good morning, […]
Hayag na ug hinay-hinay nang nihupay ang hangin. Taligsik na lang ang ulan. Nibarug si Eloy ug nagsusi sa iyang palibot. Nibarug pud ang iyang pamilya. Wala silay mailhan sa ilang nakita. Wala nay gatindog, balay man o kahoy o tawo. Ang palibot daw giagian og roundup, walay ni usa ka berde nga matang, murag […]
It wasn’t gloomy anymore and the strong wind has slowly subsided. It was only drizzling. Eloy stood up and looked around him. The rest of his family also got up. Their surroundings had suddenly become unfamiliar to them. Nothing was standing, neither house nor a tree nor even a person. It was as though the […]
(Editors’ Note: Pila ka bulan human sa bagyong Pablo, nagsuroy ang staff sa Pasa Bilis! sa mga baseng gerilya sa rehiyon aron makisayod kung unsa nay kahimtang sa mga masa ug eryang labing naigo sa kalamidad. Usa sa pinakasadya mao ang pakig-kukabildo sa usa ka aktibistang masa sa Barrio X. Taliwala sa usa ka halapad […]
(Editors’ Note: Months after Typhoon Pablo, the staff of Pasa Bilis! visited guerilla bases in the region to know the situation of the masses and the territories severely affected by the calamity. One of the most enjoyable was the conversation with a peasant activist in Barrio X. In the middle of a vast rice field, […]
Bukid sa Davao del Norte—Human sa pila ka oras nga daw pagtuyok-tuyok ug paglatas sa mga bungtod, sa dili kaayo hilayo, malantawan na ang hayag nga suga sa venue. Ug sa distansyang sapa lamang ang gilay-on ma-dunggan na ang kabibo sa lugar—mga katawa, mga palakpak ug syagit pampadasig sa mga masa ug kauban. Bisperas pa […]
HINTERLANDS OF DAVAO DEL NORTE—After a couple of hours of traversing hills and seemingly circuitous routes, from some distance, one can already see the lights emanating from the venue. And from the nearby river, one can hear the hubbub from the place—laughter, claps and ruckus of agitation from the masses and the comrades. It’s still […]
