Oppose Marcos II regime’s revision of history! Honor the martyrs of the people, join the New People’s Army!
September 21, 2022 | New People's Army | Bicol Regional Operational Command (Romulo Jallores Command) | Raymundo Buenfuerza | Spokesperson |

Romulo Jallores, Santos Binamera, Celso Minguez, Tomas Pilapil, Eduardo Olbarra. It is a crime to forget that they are heroes who had lived during Marcos Sr.’s dictatorship and had sacrificed their lives for the Bikolano masses. It is the highest tribute to name the unit commands of the New People’s Army in Bikol after them […]

Continue to make the Marcoses pay their blood debts!
September 21, 2022 | National Democratic Front of the Philippines | NDF-Bicol | Revolutionary Council of Trade Unions-Bicol |

Fifty years have gone since the inconceivable scourge of martial law gave way to the birth of countless nationalists, progressives and revolutionaries who had offered their lives to oppose, overthrow and stop the dictator from ruling forever. Until now, the Filipino people along with the families of the martyrs, have been condemning the Marcoses for […]

The spirit of struggle is the Bikolano peasants’ heritage to the current generation
September 21, 2022 | National Democratic Front of the Philippines | NDF-Bicol | Pambansang Katipunan ng mga Magbubukid-Bicol |

“Land for the tillers!” The peasants’ demand still reverberates especially now under Marcos II’s regime. This has never changed, wavered nor has been forgotten. Try as the Marcoses’ might, the generation after generation of peasants who have always been deprived of land and justice from the very beginning will be immovable cornerstones who shall protect […]

Neither imperialism nor bourgeois dictatorship but dictatorship of the proletariat led by the Party will prevail
September 21, 2022 | National Democratic Front of the Philippines | Christians for National Liberation (CNL) |

The Christians for National Liberation (CNL), the underground revolutionary political organization of Christians, vehemently denounces the bourgeois Philippine government’s claim that puppet, dictator, tyrant, and deposed Ferdinand Marcos Sr. left behind a “golden age of peace and prosperity.” We exclaim with a resounding voice that never it was. Instead, it was a “darkest age of […]

Women fight and be free! Continue the struggle!
September 21, 2022 | National Democratic Front of the Philippines | NDF-Bicol | Makabayang Kilusan ng Bagong Kababaihan-Bicol |

The 1972 Martial Law is one of the darkest chapters of Filipino women’s history. Thousands of women have fallen victims of torture, rape, sexual and psychological abuses, illegal arrests and even killings. There are a thousand like Yolanda Gordula, Lorena Barros, Liliosa Hilao, Rizalina Ilagan, Leticia Ladlad and Jessica Sales who if not illegally arrested […]

Youth, be good and loyal champions of truth! Never again to Martial Law!
September 21, 2022 | National Democratic Front of the Philippines | NDF-Bicol | Kabataang Makabayan-Bicol |

The nation marks the 50th year since the declaration of Martial Law in 1972 in the face of the tragedy of the disavowed Marcos family’s return to power.

Paglingkurin ang mga likha’t kataga para sa pagtatanggol sa kasaysayan ng mamamayan!
September 21, 2022 | National Democratic Front of the Philippines | NDF-Bicol | Artista at Manunulat ng Sambayanan-Bicol |

Isang aral na natutunan ng mga alagad ng sining sa panahon ng batas militar ni Marcos, Sr. ay na ang sining ay hindi para sa sining lamang. Ang sining ay para at tungkol sa masa. Ito ay may dapat panigan. Sumasalamin sa buhay at pakikibaka ng masang siya ring nagsulat at naghulma. Ang sining ay […]

Martial Law more like impending reality than distant memory
September 21, 2022 | National Democratic Front of the Philippines | Cordillera People's Democratic Front |

This is but the beginning of a reckoning. As the nation commemorates the 50th anniversary of the declaration of Martial Law, the Filipino people pledges its unwavering decision to resist the illegitimate rule of the junior Marcos and bring the family to long-delayed justice. There will be no rest for Bongbong Marcos and his thieving […]

September 21, 2022 | New People's Army | Bicol Regional Operational Command (Romulo Jallores Command) | NPA-Sorsogon (Celso Minguez Command) | Samuel Guerrero | Spokesperson |

“Sa bawat pang-aapi ay may paglaban, at sa paglaban ay may paglaya” ito ang ginintuang aral sa mapait at madilim na kasaysayan ng sambayanang Pilipino sa ilalim ng batas militar ng rehimeng US-Marcos noong Setyembre 21, 1972, 50 taon na ang nakalilipas. Hindi mapagkakaila na ang mga Sorsoganon, sa mahaba nitong kasaysayan ng paglaban sa […]

Fight US-Marcos II regime's gross distortion of history!
September 21, 2022 | National Democratic Front of the Philippines | NDF-Negros Island | Bayani Obrero | Spokesperson |

Today, we commemorate the 50th anniversary of the late dictator Ferdinand E. Marcos Sr’s declaration of Martial Law in the thick of systemic and all-out efforts of his son and namesake Ferdinand Marcos Jr to whitewash and distort history. Since assuming the presidency through one of the most fraudulent elections ever, Marcos Jr wasted no […]
