CPP/Ang Bayan: CPP releases historic documents

Propaganda article from the English language edition of the CPP online publication Ang Bayan (Jun  21): CPP releases historic documents

The Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Philippines (CPP) recently released historic documents including the Constitution of the Communist Party of the Philippines and the Program for the People’s Democratic Revolution (PPDR). The two documents were produced by the Second Congress of the CPP that took place during the second half of 2016.

The Constitution is divided into 13 parts, including the Preamble and other important articles. The CPP explicated on its primary task of applying Marxism-Leninism-Maoism to concrete conditions of the country and combining it with the concrete practice of Philippine revolution. The CPP is confident that it will succeed in the people’s democratic revolution because the revolutionary forces are growing in strength amid continuing and unrelenting local social crisis, while US imperialism is weakening strategically.

Meanwhile, the PPDR lays down the task of every revolutionary: Accomplish National Liberation and Democracy and Pave the Way for a Bright Socialist Future. In this light, the PPDR identified the particular tasks in the fields of politics, economics, military, culture, and international relations. The document also discussed the victories of the CPP, its relationship with the armed revolution and the united front, and self-reliance and international support. The document also discussed the essential critique on the semicolonial and semifeudal society.
