Multi-sectoral organizations on Tuesday urged the Commission on Elections (Comelec) to bar from next year’s elections some party-list groups that have links to the Communist Party of the Philippines-New People’s Army-National Democratic Front (CPP-NPA-NDF).
The Bayan Muna, Kabataan, Anakpawis, ACT Teachers, and Gabriela Women’s Party have been active in the CPP-NPA-NDF underground revolutionary tactics to push for a communist system. Makabayan lawmakers are not really pushing for the legitimate concerns and interests of the Filipino people, instead they are supporting the CPP-NPA-NDF by providing them financial support from their yearly budget.
