CPP denounces US increasing involvement in Oplan Bayanihan


CPP denounces US increasing involvement in Oplan Bayanihan

Information Bureau
Communist Party of the Philippines
December 14, 2012

The Communist Party of the Philippines (CPP) today denounced the increasing US military intervention in local counterinsurgency operations as indicated in the agreements signed yesterday by officials of the Philippine and US military.

Five new terms of reference were signed by Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) chief of staff General Jessie Dellosa and US Pacific Command commander Admiral Samuel James Locklear in a series of meetings by the Philippine-US Mutual Defense Board and Security Engagement Board over the past few days.

Among others, the new agreements call for the creation of a technology and experimentation subcommittee on civil-military operations, a humanitarian and disaster response working group and the activation of a counter-terrorism working group.

"The Filipino people must demand the full disclosure of these agreements which indicate further deepening US involvement in the internal affairs of the Philippines, particularly in the implementation of the AFP's Oplan Bayanihan war of suppression," said the CPP. "Oplan Bayanihan was designed by the AFP in accordance with the Counterinsurgency Guide of 2009 issued by the US State Department and is being implemented with the guidance of US military advisers."

"Involvement of US military forces in counter-insurgency planning and operations in the Philippines constitutes interference in the internal affairs of the Philippines," pointed out the CPP. "The US is using its puppet regime to carry out its war by proxy against the armed resistance and non-armed movement which are fighting for national liberation from US domination and oppression."

"Aside from providing strategic advice, US military forces have long been known to be involved in tactical operations, providing local operating troops with intelligence and logistical support and experimental armaments besides having American soldiers directly embedded in combat operations," added the CPP.

"The Filipino people must hold the Obama government accountable for the mounting human rights abuses being committed by the Aquino regime's armed forces, police personnel and state-attached paramilitary groups in the course of the US-directed Oplan Bayanihan," asserted the CPP. "Behind the rhetoric of peace and human rights repeated ad nauseum by Aquino and his military officials is the fact that cases of extrajudicial killings, abductions and disappearances, illegal arrest and detention, torture and other forms of military abuses continue to increase by the day."

"The US is using such catchprhases as 'freedom of navigation', 'regional stability' and 'counter-terrorism' to serve as smokescreens for its increasing military presence and interventionism in the Philippines and heightened presence in Asia," said the CPP. "In the end, it is only the ultra-nationalist interests of the US big capitalists that are being served by the increased presence of US military forces in the Philippines and in the Asia-Pacific region."

The CPP said that "the Aquino and Obama regimes are riding roughshod over Philippine sovereignty in collaborating to further increase the presence of US military forces, particularly the growing number of rotational US military warship and troop dockings in Philippine ports."

"The Philippines is being used by the US military as an operations base of its large flotilla of interventionist troops plying the sea routes in and around the Philippines," said the CPP. "This year, there have been close to 80 dockings by American warships at the former US naval base at Subic, in Manila Bay as well as other ports, which practically translates to the daily presence of American forces in some part of the country."

"Add to this the military base of the Joint Special Operations Task Force-Philippines (JSOTFP) inside Camp Navarro that permanently hosts at least 700 American soldiers."

AFP Hands Over P22-M for Neutralization of NPA, ASG Most Wanted

Camp Aguinaldo, Quezon City—Keeping up its end of the bargain, the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) formally handed over the reward money totaling P22-million to informants that were vital in the neutralization of most wanted terrorists and rebels, today at the OJ2 multipurpose hall.

The Deputy Chief of Staff for Intelligence, J2, Maj. Gen. Francisco N. Cruz Jr. presided the awarding ceremony. He was accompanied by the Commanding General of the AFP Civil Relations Service, Maj. Gen. Rolando B. Tenefrancia.

The rewards system, which was facilitated by the AFP and Philippine National Police (PNP) National Joint Reward Valuation Committee, encouraged individuals to participate in counter-insurgency and counter-terrorism activities by providing pertinent information on wanted personalities.

As a result, Abu Sayyaf Group (ASG) leader Ghumbahali Jumdail, alias Dr Abu, with reward money of P7.4-million, fell to authorities along with nine other ASG key members. Jumdail was among those that were neutralized in the air strike in Parang, Sulu last February that killed 15 known Jemaah Islamiyah and ASG leaders and members.

The other ASG members with rewards were ASG sub-leader Suhud Tanadjalin (killed), with P3.3-million; ASG key member Usman Said alias Kaiser Said (killed), with P1.2-million; and ASG members Imbo Bayani alias Sahibul Jamaani (killed), Harun Jaljalis (killed), Assan/Bin Laden alias Abu Usama (captured), Burrong Rasul Barro alias Abu Mohammad (captured), Rommel Abbas alias Abu Nick (captured), and Samsudin Musa alias Musa (captured) with P350,000 each.

Three members of the New People’s Army (NPA) were also on the list and they were led by Allan V Jazmines alias Tomas/Arthur with P5.6-million reward on his head. He was captured in February last year with 13 standing warrants of arrest for 14 cases of murder. The other two, Robertson Anchez alias Stanley/Felimon (killed) and Edgardo Sevilla alias Palong/Diego (captured), have P1.2-million each on their head for multiple cases of murder, robbery in band, and multiple frustrated murder.

The reward system for wanted ASG leaders and members was activated on June 12, 2001 as the government intensified its pursuit of terrorists that pose danger and threat to communities and individuals. Meanwhile, the reward system for wanted insurgents was activated in June 30, 2006. Cohorts and other terrorist personalities were then included in the reward system in October 2007.

“We recognize the efforts of these concerned individuals who continue to step up in helping the government, the AFP, and the PNP in the campaign to protect our people from the danger posed by terrorists and lawless elements. The monetary reward is a recognition and appreciation of their bravery in helping to curb criminality,” AFP Chief of Staff General Jessie D Dellosa said.

“As we move closer to our 77th Anniversary Celebration, the AFP continues with its intelligence-driven and focused military operations to neutralize threats to our democratic and free institutions with the help of selfless civilians who aspire for peace and safety in their communities,” General Dellosa added.

Public Interest on Framework Agreement Increases


Public Interest on Framework Agreement Increases


December 10, 2012 News: Officials of the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) including Datu Antonio P. Kinoc, an alternate MILF Peace Panel member that represents the indigenous people are now taking advantage of the momentum as interest and widespread support on the FAB increase and gaining ground even in Christian localities in Central Mindanao and among the indigenous people in Maguindanao. This was shown by series of invitations received by the Front and Datu Kinoc in recent days. Non-government organizations are also exerting efforts to intensify information drive through conduct of forums and other forms of public gathering to enlighten the people on the letter and intent of the FAB as well as the benefits that maybe derived from it. MinHRAC is one of the frontrunners of this campaign advocacy.


Datu Kinoc has been invited to various advocacy forums on the FRAMEWORK AGREEMENT ON THE BANGSA MORO signed last October 15, 2012 in Manila. On November 22, 2012, he was invited by the National Code NGO Assembly through MINCODE, its Mindanao Office headed by Ms. Pat Sarenas. Datu Kinoc spoke in the afternoon ahead of GPH Panel Member Bai Yasmin Busran Lao.

Last November 27, 2012, Datu Kinoc was again invited to speak on the framework agreement at the Mindanao State University, General Santos City Campus at Tambler, General Santos City. The forum was organized by the MINHRAC in coordination with the chancellor of the University. It was attended by more than two thousand students, faculty and community leaders who came as far as Glan. Many questions were asked and were ably answered by both Datu Kinoc and Atty Zainudin Malang of MINHRAC.

On November 28, 2012, the SIMM CARRD also invited Datu Kinoc at a forum on the same subject at the El Comidor Restaurant along Sinsuat Ave. Cotabato City. It was attended by a mixed audience of Christian and Moro stakeholders representing the urban poor, agrarian reform beneficiaries and ten (10) barangay chairmen and other officials of Cotabato City. Then on December 1, 2012, upon invitation of MINHRAC, a forum of similar nature was also held in South Upi, A large delegation of MILF Officials led by the General Staff of the Bangsamoro Islamic Armed Forces (BIAF) and other functionaries of the MILF notably the Chair of the Technical Working Group (TWG) of the Peace Panel on normalization, Mohammad Nassif and Atty Naguib Sinarimbo.  Mayor Abdullah Campong also attended the program.

They were able to explain the benefits that would be derived from the framework agreement and further explained that the intent is not exclusive but rather inclusive to those who are willing to be a part of the proposed Bangsamoro Region. On December 2, 2012, the group of Datu Kinoc was also invited to another forum at Barangay Manarapan, Carmen, North Coabato were more than 400 people attended. The audience was told that Carmen is prominent in the Bangsamoro struggle because it was in this town that the infamous Manili massacre took place sometime in 1971 that added to the sentiments and anger of the Moro people who later on waged a war of rebellion that engulfed Mindanao and Sulu. Another Peace Forum was also organized by the SIMM CARRD on December 3, 2012 at the town of Alamada, North Cotabato where the delegation of Datu Kinoc was present. Barangay chairmen and other local leaders attended the program. Mayor Bartolome Lataza Jr. of the said municipality opened the program. Vice Mayor, Leonegildo Calibara also attended. Upon hearing the clarifications made by the speakers about the FAB, the attendees had a positive response and even expressed their openness to be a part of the proposed region considering that they are adjacent to Buldon.

The forum in Aleosan, held at the Dualing National High School was a culmination program of the Mindanao Week of Peace, it was attended mostly by youth and students which comprised a crowd of more than 400, The School Principal, Mrs. Pastores opened the program but had to begged off later on as she has to go to the division office in Amas,North Cotabato. This forum was organized by the Balay Rehabilitation Center based in Kidapawan City. The curiosities of the students and faculty on the framework agreement were satisfied by the group and they were hopeful that it will succeed. It wound up before twelve noon as the MILF delegation have to catch-up with the TWG meeting scheduled in Cotabato City.

As these info disseminations were warmly welcomed by the people in the areas mentioned earlier, it is not far-fetch that even Christian areas would eventually join the Bangamoro Region as they foresee a wider and much bigger opportunities that lay ahead. It is only a matter time that Moro leaders will ultimately emerge, one that can prove once and for all that not all Moros are ill-managers but rather effective, efficient and competent housekeepers of government.

Similar gatherings in connection with the campaign dissemination of the agreement were also conducted in Shariff Aguak. Maguindanao; Midsayap, North Cotabato, Malapatan, Sarangani; and Mati City in Davao Oriental where top Front officials personally attended, including Ghazali Jaafar, MILF Vice Chairman for Political Affairs.
