The Philippine Progressive Movement in the 1990s

Abstract

A how me to point out that while I am the President of Bagong Alyansang Makabayan (BAYAN), the views that I share here are essentially my own. Nonetheless, my political sentiments cannot be divorced from my experiences and convictions as an active member of BAYAN. The same holds true for my current responsibilities in parliamentary work as an active member of the Partido ng Sayan (PnB).

Taking off from the Third World Studies Center's eight guide questions, I wish to raise several counter-questions, firstly, to Clarify certain assumptions made in that invitation and, secondly, to serve as my frame of reference for the points I intend to focus on.
