It would take more than an SC ruling to free the monopolized lands, and we can only count on the mass movement of the Filipino people to ensure that our tillers get what’s rightfully theirs.”, Merced said.

Students protest Charter Change revival»
“If the Aquino government and its cohorts push for Cha-Cha, it can expect thousands of youth and Filipinos to flood the streets in protest. We refuse to be merely employees and consumers in our own country. The Filipino people know better and have protested and stopped any move to approve 100% foreign ownership ever since. No amount of sugar-coated propaganda can lead us to thinking that this cha-cha is different from the rest!”

In Defense of Student Activism»We have to ask ourselves, what conditions would make us rage? We don’t rage when we comfortably watch the sensationalized news of a reporter too excited to get the scoop. We don’t rage against the news of the budget cut when it’s sandwiched between commercials of our favorite celebrities. We don’t rage against the violence committed against our farmers when it’s shown to us in class and we need to write an essay on it to get a grade. We rage only when we, ourselves, are held tight, suffocating. We rage when we see disorder, when we are in disorder. Thus, our cry is to heighten this disorder. The atrocities done cannot be countered by silence.
