Korap na Gubyerno, Dusa sa Pilipino SINGILIN! PANAGUTIN!
| Statement
Limampu’t tatlong taon makalipas ang paghudyat ng isa sa pinakamadilim na yugto ng kasaysayan ng Pilipinas, patuloy tayong minumulto’t binabalot ng pamana ng Batas Militar at legasiya ng Rehimeng Marcos Sr. Hanggang ngayon, lubog ang bayan sa korapsyon, katiwalian, at kawalang pananagutan. Sa kabila ng pangako ng kasalukuyang administrasyon noong panahon ng kampanya, hindi nasilayan ng mamamayang Pilipino ang ginhawang pinagmayabang ng UNITEAM. Malayong-malayo sa katotohanan ang pangakong bente pesos na bigas, hindi totoong mahihirap ang prayoridad sa programang pabahay, patuloy na tumataas na …
Postponement of the Confirmation of Criminal Charges Hearing only serves Duterte, NOT THE INTERESTS OF JUSTICE
| Statement
The ICC Pre-trial chamber 1 has just postponed the confirmation of charges hearing of former Philippine strongman Rodrigo Duterte. This is a blow to the thousands of victims of his brutal drug war and their families, who hoped for a swift confirmation that all evidence submitted truly warrant a full trial.

In Defense of Human Rights and Dignity Movement (iDEFEND) Analysis sa Tatlong Taon ng Gubyernong Marcos-Duterte Nagsimula ang pamumunong Marcos-Duterte sa pangako ng UNITY at beinte pesos kada kilong bigas. Makalipas ang tatlong taon, mas matingkad na usapin ang bangayan ng panig ng dalawang dinastiya kaysa sa pagpapababa ng presyo ng bilihin, pagtaas ng sahod ng mga manggagawa, at pagtugon sa problema ng kawalang paninirahan at katiyakan sa pagkain. Sa gitna ng pagkawasak ng tambalang Marcos-Duterte nagtala ng pinakamataas na antas ng kagutuman mula noong pandemic (27.2% ayon sa SWS).
Human rights, justice, and accountability cannot wait! The Senate's sabotage of the Impeachment process must be condemned!
| Statement
The Senate chose to protect the powerful instead of the people by its decision to remand the articles of impeachment against Vice President Sara Duterte to the House of Representatives. We are deeply alarmed and collectively outraged by this move that has effectively paralyzed the impeachment process, subverted constitutional accountability, and insulted the sovereign will of the Filipino people. The 18-5 decision showed that the majority of Senators chose to ignore the public clamor of Filipinos demanding this trial and the solid evidence of corruption in OVP/DepEd funds.
