Bayan ensures big mobilization to counter Arroyo’s SONA

MEDIA STATEMENT

July 21, 2009

Bagong Alyansang Makabayan ensures Gloria Macapagal Arroyo of a mobilization that will reveal the real state of the nation as against her usual untruthful statements. This year’s SONA of Gloria Arroyo is the most crucial one knowing the possibility of her declaration that will either enforce martial law or will pave the way for the Congress to convene in a “Senate-less” constituent assembly and discuss and approve their amendments to the 1987 Philippine Constitution.

In any ways that Gloria Arroyo will try to push her filthy agenda, we are making sure that we have the people with us to oppose and deny her plans. What seems to be unusual with the rigid gearing-up of the Philippine National Police for this year’s SONA, as compared to the previous ones, is their anticipation of a strong opposition from the people. Whatever it is that they think will ignite the people’s resistance, we will ensure readiness among our ranks and be as peaceful as we have always been.

Our community forums in the city’s various barangays are successful in giving education about the real situation of our country amid the worsening global financial crisis and the looming effects of charter change to our sovereignty and patrimony. The people’s responses are overwhelming and we believe that their participation to our mobilization this coming July 27 is a result of their consciousness and willingness to be active against the manipulations of the Arroyo administration.

The Filipino people have expressed enough of their dissents against Gloria Arroyo’s corrupt, sham, and fascist regime. Apparently, Gloria Arroyo is too shameless and uncaring to realize that she has never won the people’s confidence and sympathy since the time she rigged the 2004 presidential election and be seated as a sham president of the country.

Gloria Arroyo has gone further with her sins after she initiated anomalous transactions and conspired with her allies in corrupting the people’s money. This is to remind us all of Gloria Arroyo and her family’s involvement to NBN-ZTE deal scandal, the P728 million fertilizer fund scam, and many others. Gloria Arroyo has also caused gross human rights violations and senseless deaths of thousands of innocent civilians through her implementation of Oplan Bantay Laya.

Gloria Arroyo has blatantly neglected the people’s economic rights by ignoring their needs for stable and decent jobs, lands, food, shelter, and access to basic social services. These are more than enough reasons for the Filipino people to ensure the end of Gloria Arroyo’s anti-people regime. There is no way that we will allow her manipulations to stay in power and be granted the immunity from any lawsuit.

Gloria Arroyo deserves nothing less than ouster. We need to stop and kick her out from Malacañang before her evil works succeed in exploiting more the Filipino people and our nation.

No to Charter Change!

Never Again to Martial Law!

Oust Gloria!
