The push by Sen. Franklin Drilon to investigate the ₱19.2-billion budget of theNational Task Force to End Local Communist Armed Conflict (NTF-ELCAC) is a welcome move. The broad sectors of the people demand a stop to how their money is being squandered on wasteful and corrupt counterinsurgency operations and white elephant projects. We maintain that the […]
Revolutionary forces in Eastern Visayas unite with patriotic and democratic Filipinos in condemning Rodrigo Duterte’s withdrawal of the termination of the Visiting Forces Agreement. He has finally laid himself bare as a true puppet of US imperialism and traitor to the Filipino people. He continues to shed any pretenses to his “independent foreign policy.” Several […]
The National Democratic Front-Eastern Visayas condemns the cold-blooded murder of former University of Eastern Philippines president Dr. Rolando Delorino last June. We belatedly express our condolences to his family and the rest of the UEP community. This brutal act should be properly investigated and its perpetrators must be brought to swift justice. The NDF-EV vehemently […]
In revoking his “suspension” of the Visiting Forces Agreement, Duterte is consistent with his being a puppet of both US and Chinese imperialism and the fact that the US still has all-round dominance over the Philippines. Without having to violate the constitutional ban on foreign military bases and forces in Philippine territory, the US can […]
The New People’s Army-Eastern Visayas (Efren Martires Command or NPA-EMC) today laughed off as a loser’s bluff the Duterte regime’s latest deadline to only “contain” the revolutionary movement in the region by 2022, a stark difference to their previous declarations of completely “ending” the NPA which they have already adjusted several times over the years. […]
Dapat na kondenahin at singilin ng mamamayan ng TK ang rehimeng Duterte sa pabaya, inutil at walang puso nitong tugon sa daing ng mamamayang biktima ng pag-aalburuto ng bulkang Taal. Wala itong ginawa para ibsan ang kalagayan ng mga apektado ng sakuna. Mas malala pang sakuna sa Taal ang pagiging pangulo ni Duterte at paghahari […]
The announcement today that the Visiting Forces Agreement (VFA) will no longer be abrogated confirms that earlier pretend threats to terminate it is mere play-acting by Duterte to shamelessly and treacherously use the VFA and Philippine sovereignty as bargaining chip in his demand for more military aid to support his tyrannical regime. It is clear […]
Rebolusyonaryong pagbati at pakikiisa! Noong Marso 26, 2021, ika-9:00 ng umaga, naganap ang engkwentro sa pagitan ng yunit ng Bagong Hukbong Bayan (BHB) at tropa ng 9th IB Philippine Army sa Sitio Castilla, Napolidan Lupi Camarines Sur. Nagresulta ito sa pagkasawi ng isang elemento ng Philippine Army. Namartir din sa nasabing engkwentro si Alexander Vergara/Ka […]
I wonder why Gen. Esperon continues to serve in key positions of the defense establishment, when for around two decades now (except during the Benigno Aquino period), he has proved himself utterly incompetent having fared poorly at the helm of the government’s militarist counterinsurgency drive. He has been a continuing failure since the Arroyo regime with […]
The deployment of 51 of 82 Philippine National Police (PNP) Quezon City Police District personnel who were later discovered to be positive for Covid-19 as part of anti-riot phalanx against protesters last Monday along Commonwealth Avenue in Quezon City was a shameless act of public endangerment. The said police personnel were tested on July 23, […]
