NEWS & LETTERS, May 2002
Coming next month
In-person report from the Philippines
The U.S. military presence in the Philippines is expanding in Mindanao, home to many indigenous communities which have successfuly resisted foreign domination for centuries. Support for the administration of Gloria Macapagal Arroyo has declined drastically among workers and the urban poor, and a public outcry, including by the revolutionary women's group Gabriela, backed by a credible threat of a massive general strike, forced the administration to back down after announcing a change of dates for the May 1 international workers' day. |
