MANILA: Former members of the Communist Party of the Philippines-New People’s Army (CPP-NPA) belied claims that government forces tortured and maltreated former communist rebels who went back to the fold of the law.
During the “Pros and Cons” television show aired on Sunday, Ivylyn Corpin alias Ka Ivy, said government security forces are sincere in their commitment to achieving lasting peace as they encouraged more rebels to surrender.
Corpin added surrenderers are actually getting various benefits from the government when they decide to quit the armed struggle.
Who is Dennise Velasco? Dennise is an activist, labor organizer, and human rights defender. I consider him a good friend since our days in the student movement in the late 1990s.
He grew up in a working-class neighborhood in Valenzuela. He majored in management as an undergrad at the Polytechnic University of the Philippines. He became an activist after joining the Students for National Democracy.
I first met him in 1998 in Diliman when he represented activist groups from PUP for youth consultations on various social issues. This was right before the founding of Anakbayan. We were part of a group of students in Metro Manila who volunteered in a peasant immersion program in Southern Tagalog in 1999.
