“Government’s Neoliberal Policies the Number One Enemy of the Working Class!”
“For Labor Unity to Fight Neoliberal Policies!”
PLM’s affiliated labor organizations BMP (Bukluran ng Manggagawang Pilipino) and PMT (Pagkakaisa ng Manggagawa sa Transportasyon) will be conducting an overnight vigil on April 30, 6:00pm, at the Welcome Rotunda, Espana. On May 1, around 2,500 PLM members and affiliates will assemble at the Rotunda at 7:30am. Program will be held until 9:30am. The PLM contingent will then march to Mendiola to join the NAGKAISA! broad labor coalition at around 10:00am.
“Neoliberalism – contractualization, privatization, economic liberalization, and workforce restructuring in the name of ‘felixibility’ – have weakened and even decimated sections of the industrial working class in this country. Neoliberalism is not dead, it’s alive and kicking. In fact what we are seeing today is a monstrous version of neoliberalism being implemented in response to the capitalist economic crisis in Europe,” according to Sonny Melencio, Chairperson of the Partido Lakas ng Masa.
Partido Lakas ng Masa (PLM) is a newly formed national electoral party which is planning to contest seats for the first time at the national, congressional and local level in the 2013 elections.

Unity Statement, March 8, 2012
Filipino Women March against US Military Expansion in the Philippines and the Pacific
On the occasion of the International Women’s Day 2012, we, Filipino women declare in strongest terms possible, our opposition not only to increased presence but to U.S. military presence per se on Philippine soil.
The United States is increasing its military presence in Asia-Pacific, in particular in the Philippines, and the Philippine government is showing no qualms in allowing this to happen.
A news account recently reported of the United States’ plan to increase its military aid to “boost” Philippine defense; the promised aid will amount to US$144 million, reflecting an increase of more than US$20 million on the previous amount. In another earlier news article, U.S. Ambassador to the Philippines Harry Thomas was quoted as saying his government had spent US$50 million for the upgrading of Philippine military facilities.
