Kabataang Makabayan-Southern Tagalog
April 22, 2023

Kabataang Makabayan – Southern Tagalog joins proletarians across the world in celebrating the 153rd year of Vladimir Ilyich Lenin’s birth.



Today, in our continued struggle against imperialism, feudalism, and bureaucrat capitalism, may we always be guided by Lenin’s teachings. His legacy in spearheading the worker’s struggle in Russia and the success of the Bolsheviks in the historical October Revolution continues to inspire workers across the world.

The Philippines has long been under imperialist rule as we live in a semi-colonial and semi-feudal society. Under the puppet regimes of Marcos II, Duterte, Arroyo, and those who came before them, the Filipinos have suffered enough just to placate their imperialist overlords. The enactment of the Visiting Forces Agreement (VFA) in 1999 has only cemented the US Army’s hold on our land by allowing them to have free reign on our Philippine soil. This has since been escalated by Aquino’s EDCA which not only strengthened the VFA but also enabled the US Army to use our facilities and build bases on Philippine soil tax-free. The ongoing Balikatan Exercises, which the AFP dubs as their “largest ever” is sure to be just another way to enable the US Army’s pilferage on our country.

Military intervention of imperialist powers, including their chokehold on our politics and economy only justifies revolt. Lenin’s teachings has now been more relevant than ever as we cannot move forward without abolishing imperialism and all of its faces. As we march through the anti-imperialist struggle, let us hold steadfast in our ideals and carry out the revolution under the leadership of the proletariat. Long live Marxism-Leninism-Maoism! ##
