Focus on local candidates while preparing for failure of elections

PLM will be running 15 candidates in the May 10, 2010 elections. They include one running for senator (JV Bautista of Sanlakas), one for congressman in the second district of Marikina (BMP leader Larry Punzalan), one vice-governor in Bulacan (Apen dela Cruz of PLM), one mayor in Pasig (Ric Reyes of PLM/Katarungan left coalition) and 11 PLM councillors in 6 cities and municipalities in NCR, Central and Northern Luzon, and some parts of the Visayas). The 11 councillors are all PLM leaders in the community chapters of the organization.

In the senate, PLM will also be campaigning for Danny Lim (former Brigadier General, jailed for mutiny against the Arroyo administration).

Justice for Journalists and Human Rights Heroes Murdered by Trapo Politics!

End Trapo Politics Now!

Partido Lakas ng Masa (PLM) condemns in the strongest possible terms the massacre in Maguindanao. We assert that this is not only a problem confined to Mindanao, but that it’s a symptom of a festering and rotten political system.  We predict that this violence will be the feature of the coming elections, as the political elite struggle with increasing desperation and ferocity for a share of the ever-dwindling national wealth and power.

The Philippine elections are veritable killing fields and the killings have begun!
