Red salute to the victorious protest actions of the people in Mataragan, Malibcong, Abra against the Bravo Coy, 41st IB, AFP. The people expelled the military unit after finding the soldiers guilty of human rights violations, and disregard of laws pertaining to military encampment in civilian areas, particularly those of indigenous peoples.
Complimentary to the peoples’ protests were attacks launched by the NPA , such as the September 29, 2014 sniping operations and the burning of the said detachment on the night of February 8, 2014.
The incessant presence of the detachment of the Bravo in Mataragan has long been a problem of the people. According to laws and conventions, military camps should be located more than 500 meters away from civilian areas, to secure the people from possible crossfire; however, the said detachment is just a stone’s throw away from houses. Moreover, the soldiers’ flagrant disregard of the rights of women are rampant, making local women subject of lust and oppression. Farm animals, poultry and fruits and vegetables are robbed by the soldiers, and people are forced to serve as guides during military operations. The women, fed up with exploitation and oppression from the soldiers of the Bravo Coy spearheaded protests, that were later supported by the entire community, including the Barangay Council.
The people consolidated the various cases against the Bravo Coy, such as violation of laws and conventions pertaining to military camps, against oppression and disrespect of women, public disturbance and harassment and intimidation against the people. The people’s indigenous court found the Bravo Coy guilty and imposed ang P100,000 fine against the soldiers.
However, the military unit disregarded the people’s decision and instead left a measly P6,000, and sneaked out of the detachment on the night of February 8, 2014. Clearly, this incident unmasked the AFP, through the 41st IB, as a fascist military institution, fighting for the ruling classes and against the people. After sneaking out of their camp, an NPA team burned the deatchment left by the Bravo Company, to the delight and cheer of the people of Mataragan!
This exemplifies the strong bond between the people and the NPA, and the fact that people’s struggles are also fought by their true army, the NPA!
This experience have shown that the people’s protests and the NPA’s tactical offensives can, and will defeat the exploitative and oppressive enemies of the people. The unity between the people and the NPA have shown that the revolutiuon can never be defeated.
We call on all the people to actively fight for the dismantling of all detachments and military camps of the fascist AFP, CAFGU and PNP. Let us expose and oppose all human rights violations of the AFP, CAFGU and PNP. Let us use and advance all forms of struggles, from filing of cases, collective and militant actions, metalegal actions and armed revolutionary struggle. Join the New People’s Army!
Frustrate and defeat Oplan Bayanihan!
Advance the People’s War!
Achieve the estrategic stalemate until final victory!
