Propaganda article from the English language edition of Ang Bayan posted to the Communist Party of the Philippines (CPP) Website (Aug 7, 2021): Protest actions
Fight for the safe reopening of schools. Member organizations of the Back to School Network-Panay submitted a petition at the local office of CHEd and DepEd in Iloilo City on July 22 to demand the safe reopening of schools. They also demanded the regional agencies to provide a ₱10,000-aid to all students.
Students of the Holy Angel University (HAU) protested in front of their school campus in Angeles City, Pampanga on their first day of classes on July 15. They insisted that administration should heed their five-point list of demands for remote learning. Student leaders also appealed at the office of the university president on the same day.
Solidarity amid ECQ. The Defend Jobs Philippines mounted a campaign called Flag Brigade PH last August 6 wherein they conducted house-to-house dropping and collection of food donations. The group earlier distributed flaglets with various colors (orange for those who will donate; red for those who need donations) to indicate the particular needs and contribution of approximately 200 families in Sampaloc, Manila. The group said that the campaign is part of the movement to hold the regime accountable for its failure to aid residents amid the third enhanced community quarantine in Metro Manila.
Rollback oil prices. Workers under the Kilusang Mayo Uno mounted a picket protest near Philcoa in Quezon City on August 4 to condemn the new round of increases in prices of petroleum products and LPG. The price of gasoline increased by ₱1.05/liter, and ₱0.75/litro and ₱0.80/litro for kerosene and diesel respectively.
