Task Force Balik-Loob and the E-CLIP and Amnesty Program Cluster of the National Task Force to End Local Communist Armed Conflict (NTF-ELCAC) join the call for intensified vigilance against the infiltration of front organizations of the communist terrorist group (CTG) within government employees' associations.

The findings of National Intelligence Coordinating Agency (NICA) Director General Alex Paul Monteagudo are supported by statements from former members of the New People’s Army about the duplicitous nature of the various CTG front organizations disguised as unions of government workers.

Former NPA cadres, who have decided to return to mainstream society with support from the government, have become our indispensable partners in exposing the lies and crimes of the CTG in various sectors of our society, which unfortunately include the very halls of our government.

We therefore join the NTF-ELCAC in denouncing the continued delusions of the CTG and its front organizations to undermine the Republic and exploit the ranks of civil servants for their treasonous cause. We also call on our government workers, our lingkod bayani, to remain loyal to the Constitution and protect our democracy from those who would do it harm.

Let us all stand behind the path to peace and nation-building by finally ending the decades-long scourge advanced by these communist terrorists.
