In the third quarter of 1998, Elena received a Party assignment. As a member of the Communist Party of the Philippines (CPP), she was designated as a cadre tasked with helping lead an NGO operating in Western Mindanao. On paper, the organization focused on disaster preparedness, disaster management education, and measures designed to reduce the impact of natural and human-induced disasters. Its programs targeted remote communities in the region's hinterlands, areas often expo

TULUNAN, COTABATO — Belly Berana Jr. was raised in a family where the revolution was not something distant or abstract. It was part of their everyday life. And long before he carried a firearm as a fighter of the New People’s Army, he had already inherited the war of his parents. He and his three siblings grew up under the care of their grandmother while their parents worked underground as cadres of the Communist Party of the Philippines and the NPA. Their community in Pantu

Twenty-one former rebels in Agusan del Norte have taken another step toward rebuilding their lives after receiving more than P1.78 million in government assistance under the Enhanced Comprehensive Local Integration Program (E-CLIP), reinforcing the government’s continuing push for peace and reintegration.

To them, the ruling does not mean that former rebel witnesses were lying. It does not mean that the support networks they described never existed.

The flyers are colorful. The slogan, “Tunay, Palaban, Makabayan” rolls off the tongue with practiced ease. The candidates smile from campaign materials, flanked by the word “independent” in careful, deliberate typeface. But no one is fooled. The Sulong Tayo! Coalition, which announced itself last Thursday with much fanfare and a five-point common agenda, is not a new political formation. It is not a fresh alternative. It is not an independent movement of students finall

Naglabas ng pahayag ang University of the Philippines Diliman University Student Council kasama ang iba pang organisasyon sa loob ng unibersidad, na nanawagan ng hustisya kaugnay ng pagkamatay ni Alyssa Alano, na kabilang sa mga naiulat na nasawi sa armadong engkwentro sa Toboso, Negros Occidental.

Youth organizations in Occidental Mindoro mounted a peace rally on Monday, April 6, 2026, at the San Jose Municipal Grounds, calling for an end to terrorism and reinforcing support for community security amid recent developments involving alleged New People’s Army (NPA) activities in the province. The mobilization was led by Hands Off Our Children, in partnership with the Sangguniang Kabataan (SK) Provincial Federation of Occidental Mindoro and the local chapter of Kabataan

Charlize “Ceeka” Garzon, known as “Ka Kaye” inside the movement, was captured by government forces on March 29, 2026, during an armed encounter in Sitio Salafay, Barangay Monteclaro, San Jose, Occidental Mindoro. She is a magna cum laude graduate of De La Salle-College of Saint Benilde, where she earned a degree in Arts Management. From the perspective of someone who was once part of the revolutionary movement, Garzon is a victim—but it would be simplistic to claim that it i

“Maraming hugot o pinag-ugatan ang concept,” paliwanag ni Eder. “Isa rito ang patuloy na economic crisis dahil sa mataas na presyo ng langis. Ngayon naman, ito ay panahon ng Kuwaresma — panahon ng pagtutulungan, pagbibigayan, at pag-asa. Ang ‘Rise’ ay gusto nating ipamulat sa bawat isa ang kahalagahan ng pagtayo sa sarili sa panahon ng krisis.”

Idinagdag niya na nakababahala na ang mga grupong tulad ng KARAPATAN ang mabilis na naglabas mismo ng litrato at impormasyon ni Garzon para sa propaganda, habang ang militar ay nagpigil upang igalang ang batas at humanitarian principles.

BACOLOD CITY, Philippines — The Commission on Human Rights (CHR) in Negros Island has issued a strong condemnation against the New People’s Army (NPA) for the killing of a 74-year-old civilian woman in Kabankalan City, Negros Occidental, describing the act as a “blatant violation of the fundamental right to life.” In a statement released on March 27, 2026, the CHR identified the victim as Leonora “Nora” Anguit, who was shot dead on February 3, 2026 inside her residence i

BKFI, a national federation of around 55,000 former rebels and people’s organizations, said the anniversary should serve as a reminder of decades of violence, loss, and stalled development in the countryside rather than a celebration of “revolutionary victories.” “Fifty-seven years of the CPP-NPA-NDFP armed struggle has proven to be a vicious cycle of violence that only harmed communities,” the group stated on March 26, 2026. “We speak from experience as former believers i

Ang unang nawawala sa pagsusuri ni Manuel ay ang pinakaimportanteng factor sa military threat assessment: capability. Sa kasalukuyan, ang Iran ay kilala na mayroong short- at medium-range ballistic missiles, karamihan ay may operational range na nasa pagitan ng humigit-kumulang 1,000 hanggang 2,000 kilometro. Wala pang kumpirmadong operational intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) na kayang tumama sa mga target na libu-libong kilometro ang layo tulad ng Pilipinas o m

The recent online attacks against former members of the Communist Party of the Philippines–New People’s Army (CPP–NPA) in Southern Tagalog suggest a shift in the group’s tactics. Instead of focusing on armed encounters on the ground, the movement’s regional leadership has increasingly directed its messaging and propaganda against former rebels who have left the organization. The Southern Tagalog Regional Party Committee (STRPC), in recent weeks, released a series of publ

Sa entabladong minsang tila napakalayo sa kanyang realidad, nakahanda ngayong umakyat si Erick Simogan, o mas kilala bilang Mimi — hindi bilang mandirigma sa kabundukan, kundi bilang isang magtatapos ng Senior High School sa Rizal.

Mariing kinondena ng mga dating rebelde (FRs) at ng pambansang pederasyon na Buklod Kapayapaan ang paglabas ng Communist Party of the Philippines (CPP) - New People’s Army (NPA) ng mga “wanted” poster laban kina Gerald Mangao at Erick Simogan. Sa magkahiwalay na post na lumabas sa Facebook page na “Villager’s Point of View 2.0,” pinangalanan ang dalawa bilang umano’y “kontra-rebolusyonaryo” at nakikipagtulungan sa Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP). Hinikayat din ang publi
