The human rights crisis in the Philippines has eaten much of my time these past few weeks. First there was the
Permanent People's Tribunal second session on the Philippines in The Hague. It was an emotional experience to listen to all these testimonies in the presence of some of the victims. Then, there was the campaign against the detention of
Satur Ocampo.
Fortunately, our efforts paid off this time. Satur was released today, although he had to post bail and the Philippe secretary of injustice already threatened to push for the start of his trial. Anyway, whatever they try
Bayan Muna will be no. 1 in the May 14 polls.

Hello. Last night Nilo Arado of Bayan Panay and Luisa Dominado of Selda were abducted. Their other companion, Leeboy Garachico from Karapatan was shot.
Hindi pa nakikita ang 2. Ang sasakyan nila na kinuha din ng mga abductors ay nakitang sunog kaninang umaga.
