    By vera files fact check  |  Sep 30, 2022 1:00 PM

    Sinabi ni National Task Force to End Local Communist Armed Conflict (NTF-ELCAC) Executive Director Emmanuel Salamat na ang international community ay “nakagawa na ng isang matapang na pahayag” at “posisyon” na nagdedeklara sa Communist Party of the Philippines (CPP) at armadong grupo nito, ang New People’s Army (NPA), bilang isang teroristang grupo.

    Named Enemies, hidden targets: The Precursors to the Anti-Terrorism Act of 2020

    By Miguel Paolo P. Reyes and Joel F. Ariate Jr.  |  Aug 16, 2020 7:44 AM

    On July 3, 2020, President Rodrigo Duterte signed into law Republic Act (RA) 11479 or the Anti-Terrorism Act (ATA) of 2020. The measure he certified as urgent before Congress took effect on July 22. It is a long time coming, but the acts it fosters have long been part of an undercurrent of corrupt and repressive practices that drive state agents to go after their enemies with impunity. It is an achievement of those who have dreamt of a draconian internal security act even right after the 1986 Edsa Revolution.
