Slide
presentation recovered from a top ranking CPP-NPA-NDF.
It
discussed the role of the CPP-NPA-NDF’s revolutionary
urban-based mass movement. |
“What
can the public contribute to help ease the communist insurgency and end the
CPP-NPA’s reign of terror in communities they hold sway?” Victor asked.
“Share our stories, expose the real nature of the CPP-NPA-NDF. Don’t be
scared of being accused of ‘Red tagging’. For me, ‘Red tagging’ is just
a fictional term of the CPP-NPA-NDF so that the government will be
weakened and limited in its basic mandate to duly inform the people. It is
within the right of the government to inform and educate the people on the
nature of groups and individuals that threaten national security. Hence, the
term ‘Red tagging’ is only in the mind of those who want to subvert the
authority of the government. It is basically a scare tactic of the enemy of the
state against the government and those who wanted to expose the former.”
According
to Victor, “For one, the public must be aware of the propaganda being spun by
the CPP’s networks. There must be greater awareness on the CPP’s movements –
and the government, civil society, and the private sector have a lot to
contribute on this matter...”
“The
CPP is filled with master infiltrators and propagandists. Their efforts are
made stronger through well-thought communication strategies, supported by their
allies in the media. Government security forces must also take on the
communication and information battlefield, particularly the Internet, if they
are to win the hearts and minds of Filipinos,” Victor said.
