So it’s just a vindictive action of the Duterte administration to end the business of the Lopezes who own ABS-CBN. What do you make of that? Under this situation, Bayanihan socialism believes that in renewing socialism, the focus is not mainly on the theoretical level to explain the supremacy of the socialist system, but on the need to popularise socialism in order to mobilise the largest number of people under the single idea that the only solution to capitalist barbarism is the establishment of socialism in the Philippines and in the world today. But this time the data presented July 12, 2020, do you know that our deaths rose to 388? Karl Marx’s Ecosocialism: Capital, Nature and the Unfinished Critique of Political Economy with Red Library. So I want to go back to talking about the state of the left in the Philippines. This the reason why capitalism is used in the Philippines. Could you go into more detail about what effects the bill will have, especially during Covid? I think so. They are the ones consenting; they are patronizing the trapos. As in the case in Cebu, there is no armed rebel movement here. Additionally, Teody offers insight and context to the current economic hardship for everyday Filipinos during Covid. With the exception of communism where all ownership resides with the state, this theory is characterized by the social ownership of the means of production for society. He is now arrogant enough to say that they have stopped this part of the oligarchy, but it is a self-serving statement. That is the one that will intervene when the Supreme Court will have their decision. Seventy voted against, 11 for the renewal. Bayanihan socialism believes that the current state and its instruments (executive, Congress, judiciary and others) have been perfected by the elite classes to suit their rule and cannot be reformed by merely installing a number of representatives from the people. It’s been almost a month since he was assigned, and the COVID response is dramatically increasing. About 500 million pesos in March that was supposed to be given to every household in Cebu City. We have to also be more attuned to the online actions; we still have to maintain an online action that is very sensational, that is very informative, that will draw in many Filipinos to get that message we want in these actions. So what is this optimism all about, when in fact they can’t raise funds, it’s already at a loss on how to manage its program? TDN: Yeah. Can you talk about who that includes and what the effects of that might be for leftists? But unfortunately, that guy was the present secretary of Duterte’s Department of Environment and Natural Resources. Deploying 2,000 military personnel being posted at every checkpoint, every corner, at every street in Cebu City. So now let’s talk about what the opposition to the bill has looked like. Capitalism is an economic system under which private individuals own … Well, it’s really hard to organize, and we are still in the process of coming up with strategies in terms of organizing. The terms capitalism and socialism are both used to describe economic and political systems. A book on the history of the socialist movement originally written as a graduate thesis by then Philippine Army Captain Dante Simbulan was launched Saturday, June 16, at the University of the Philippines (UP). In addition to these left forces, there are traditional opposition forces. In the next years to come, he cannot fix what is going on right now. I’m not privy on if the Filipino people were able to comply with Tax Day [which was moved to June 15 this year] anyway. Ours is a painstaking, educating, going around in the communities, grassroots organizing, explaining the issues. So it’s not surprising the US will continue its encroachment in Philippine affairs, to maintain its US interests in terms of business, and in terms of presuming that they are the champions of democracy and as such the Philippines must comply with that. There was this initial money that was approved. So if ever the US will be able to provide what he needs, I think that will at least cement their relations. Basically, what does the class composition of the masses look like, and how organized are they? How can it defeat the bill? So how can you say that Cebuanos are hard-headed, and he doesn’t stay home because he is stubborn? And so I am looking forward to continuing engagement with you and thank you, thank you very much. Socialism is the economic and political theory according to which means of production in the economy should be owned by the society as a whole, or in other words means of production should not be owne view the full answer There were a lot of talks and open lines for talking to them, and then they were able to support some major unified actions that we pursued in the earlier years of the Duterte administration. He has a lot of sins. We need to really come up with an education that will fully conscientize them, provide them the more basic foundations, introducing them socialism, and then pointing out what kind of rampant system we have, so that many people will be awakened by this thing. This is what other socialist thinkers call as “solidarian socialism” (Michael Lebowitz, The Socialist Alternative). So from 33 deaths now is 388, and now the COVID positive is 7,500, and then the recoveries is, I think, 3,000 plus. TDN: If you asked me what will be the reception of the Supreme Court, totally I don’t think it will be favorable to us. Bayanihan socialism aligns itself to the new socialism, the socialism of the 21st century. There are a lot of major groups. Maybe we can still do that, and still maintain the physical distancing policy. The debt that we have right now have really ballooned during the Duterte administration. In that case, can you talk about what that outside pressure looks like right now and what you are building? Ok. Another important question raised in the paper is the restructuring of the working class, towards contractualisation and the growth of the informal economy and the urban poor, which is an important area for ongoing discussion and assessment. How they will maximize the situation and how such kind of forces would be organized into major organizations that will be part of the movement, the movement for change, the movement to overhaul the rotten capitalist system. Have there been any other reactions from imperial powers, specifically regarding the US-China rivalry playing out in the Philippines? Yes. Thank you. Good morning. The same predicament that these businesses lodge to the government is they have to open the economy for the interests of the big businesses. Yes yes. TDN: In relation to the US and China, I think the US has an edge right now because the Philippines is in pandemic mode. He has his own oligarchic people supporting him. There was this initial money that was approved. Yeah. In the context of Cebu, I think many Cebuanos were not able to comply with that. Capitalism Definition. TDN: Well basically, the role of the church right now, they are very much active in major issues of concern. What they did here is a military state solution. The ball is before the Supreme Court, and they have the discretion when or what particular time they will answer all the complaints. In fact, as far as the Supreme Court is concerned, there are already nine petitioners before the Supreme Court. This is more on popularizing the best offer that we can give is pursuing socialism. We have this reality that many are still devoting their political efforts, so many of them in terms of consciousness is really low, and we need to uplift. Capitalism vs. Socialism: An Overview . So it’s not surprising the US will continue its encroachment in Philippine affairs, to maintain its US interests in terms of business, and in terms of presuming that they are the champions of democracy and as such the Philippines must comply with that. RP: Do you think any Catholic Church groups will be involved in the united front? This working-class should stand against what is happening right now in the Philippines. It must be combined as an arena of struggle; it must be interconnected with our pressure outside. Thank you for that good background. 4.1. That the Duterte administration is already preparing for his graceful exit in 2022. The interview was recorded on July 16, 2020. But because of the passing of the law, that is now our predicament, that we might be tagged as a terrorist, that we will abide by what is being expected under the law, Anti Terror Bill. But if you would ask me subjectively how many forces there are, it’s still a far cry from during the Marcos era where in every community there was a lot of organization. Vigilance in terms of how the government is running its budget is running its money in terms of services to basic sectors, in terms of how the economy will work, and many other things. Solidarian socialism emanates from the explanation by the founder of scientific socialism himself, Karl Marx, who said that what we aim for in the ultimate is a society where “the free development of each is the condition for the free development of all” (Communist Manifesto). Have a good day, thank you. So what I am doing now is I am asking the neighbors for work. The budget he allotted for the pandemic response is not enough, he cannot fund the response. Women worked in farms on agricultural and other duties, were in charge of weaving, making pottery, or trading their own products. (Note: In the previous interview, Ryan made an error and wrote that Teody is the Secretary General of PLM. So it was no longer the city managing the response but the person from Manila, General Roy Cimatu5 of the Department of the Environment and Natural Resources. The ones managing the COVID response is the Inter-Agency Task Force. Of course there are the basic organizing efforts to rally the basic sectors which are affected by the pandemic. But the more painstaking for us is we have to really discover that we have convinced the people not by giving them money in return.Â, That is the hardest thing, convincing the people, explaining to them, and let them realize that they are not doing the right thing because really, there are a lot of ordinary citizens who still depend on the traditional positions.  Can you talk more about the economic sectors of the Philippines and how they are being affected? The government is very optimistic because they have a different framework from us. Repost an article or blog from another site, movement, revolution, protest, socialism, philippines, This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported License, Philippines: 'Forward, Bayanihang Sosyalismo!' Well they are of course very concerned with how a democracy works in the Philippines. We have this reality that many are still devoting their political efforts, so many of them in terms of consciousness is really low, and we need to uplift. RP: And last time we talked, you mentioned the Catholic Church was encouraging people to withhold paying their taxes to the government on Tax Day as a way to protest the Anti Terror Bill. I cannot numerically point out what are these organizations, but at least I have informed you of some major players. Also the Acquino administration before Duterte, during which GMA was jailed, did not want to bury Marcos in the Heroes’ Cemetery. 2.3. Teody is a spokesperson for the Cebu City chapter of Partido Lakas ng Masa (Party of the Laboring Masses — PLM), a socialist party in the Philippines. Our groups, PLM and BMP. For example, here in Cebu, I cannot decipher anything that can be considered “terrorist.” There are no extreme groups or extreme rebel movements like you can see in Mindanao, where you can really figure out who is a terrorist, if we are agreeable on that terrorists are those considered people who put others’ security at risk. For entertainment here in Cebu in hotels and in resorts, that will minimize clients. In Venezuela, Bolivarian socialism is the spirit of socialism earlier advanced by their national hero Simeon Bolivar almost in the entire region of Latin America. Our objective is to promote today the original spirit of bayanihan, and to integrate it to our description of the new socialism of the new time. Good morning. The shipping lines, the major docking points were under a lot, and the informal underground economy, this has stopped. Maybe this time around it’s more favorable to organize dissent in the country. Instead of this, the new socialism is measured by the social services and gains that it provides to the people, including decent housing, free health care, free education, free public transport, electricity, water, food and other people’s needs. What do the masses look like? You just mentioned eight million people were laid off, yet the government claims the recovery will be strong. Teodorico Duran Navea:  Hello Ryan. The Philippines is the texting capital of the world. The spirit of bayanihan means assistance given voluntarily and without any monetary consideration by a member of the community. As far as Cebu is concerned, we are still in Enhanced Community Quarantine. RP: I know you have to leave soon, so we don’t have much time left. What are the different forces and organizations you mentioned that may be involved in the united front PLM is helping to build? Cebu is considered as a tourism hub. And it’s now already they are trying to liberalize because they already learned, they realized that the militaristic option here is not the solution. One prominent person was Congressman Mike Defensor. If it’s not defeated in the court, we’ll still continue with our fight. 2.2. We want to ensure the overhauling of a rampant capitalist system. RP: Wow. The Philippines scored 35 out of 100, and the evaluators noted that any country with a score below 50 had a serious corruption problem, according to The Philippine Star. Introduction by Reihana Mohideen. The bill also specifically names communists and Islamists. 91.3k members in the Socialism_101 community. If the people now could maximize their planning, if these people complaining would be organized, then that could be a welcome force to reckon with in relation to the possible scenario that the era during the Marcos time will be repeated. It’s a. normal where you have to observe things which are detrimental to the economy. So what we did was a synchronized online community actions. They have to be replaced by alternative institutions (such as the People’s Congress, and people’s assemblies at the barangay, municipality, city and provincial levels) that will represent the political power of the masses, and the self-organisation of the masses outside the institutions controlled and dominated by the trapos and the political dynasties or political clans in the country. That’s why the first year of Duterte was the payback for Arroyo. The last time I think was during the extrajudicial killings when that issue was very very popular, it forced the church to issue a statement. It’s no longer as normal as before. TDN: The ball is before the Supreme Court, and they have the discretion when or what particular time they will answer all the complaints. Is France Socialist? Philippines On September 24, one day after the United Nations climate summit in New York once more failed to come up with any form of serious action to confront the climate crisis, Filipino socialist group Party of the Labouring Masses released the statement below. TDN: Well, there are still a lot of people to be organized. Yeah. These are actually framing why Duterte is trying to come up with some policies like the Anti Terror Bill. We need to really come up with an education that will fully conscientize them, provide them the more basic foundations, introducing them socialism, and then pointing out what kind of rampant system we have, so that many people will be awakened by this thing. What is the current state of the Filipino left? , Teody explained the imperial, economic, and political causes of the “Anti-Terror Bill.” Since then, the bill has passed, so Teody spoke with Ryan again to discuss the bill’s implications, the organized resistance to it, as well as its connection to the broader struggle for socialism. But this time the data presented July 12, 2020, do you know that our deaths rose to 388? Maybe in certain areas where there were more lax policies, maybe people there could comply, but I don’t think Cebu was able to. The bill was passed last July 3. Our groups, PLM and BMP6, and many other organizations are part of it. TDN: I think so. So when you say political blocs, there are also major factions who are also part of this. These are attempts to give local colour to the socialist system based on the particular history and characteristics of the countries concerned. Was the decision to rename it “Modified” Enhanced Community Quarantine in Cebu an economic decision? They are the ones consenting; they are patronizing the trapos tradition of politicians. He needs money, and that is now his problem. What they don’t realize is that people are trying to find ways on how they will eat, how they will find something to eat, so they are forced to go out to find ways—how they will be able to sustain their household. If you are witnessing the hearing for twelve sessions, and if you are on the outside, if you are an ordinary person witnessing the hearings, you would come up with a positive decision that ABS-CBN did not violate anything and their franchise should be renewed. Also the Acquino administration before Duterte, during which GMA was jailed, did not want to bury Marcos in the Heroes’ Cemetery.13 Now Marcos‘s surviving family and GMA gave a huge amount of money to finance the election campaign of Duterte, that’s why in 2016 Duterte gave these to Marcos[‘s family] and Arroyo, giving way to the burial in the Heroes’ Cemetery, and of course getting out GMA from jail. It’s been almost a month since he was assigned, and the COVID response is dramatically increasing. You mean the Communist Party of the Philippines (CPP)? We have to organize and make our Filipino brethren a socialist kind of thinking paving the way to an alternative to the capitalist, to capitalism. History repeats itself, and the people’s sentiments should be maximized and be welcomed as part of our continuing struggle to effect change in the country. RP: Okay, so I have one more question on the topic of opposition to the Anti Terror Bill. Many were already displaced or laid off, so in the case of Cebu, I doubt Cebuanos were able to comply. What is the current state of the Filipino left? We have to also be more attuned to the online actions; we still have to maintain an online action that is very sensational, that is very informative, that will draw in many Filipinos to get that message we want in these actions. I hope you can still further come up with activities like this, about changing updates of the Philippine politics and so and so. Most of their popularity is with Makabayan Bloc. So where did the 1,500 went? That’s like what happened to Estrada11 who was jailed, and just like what happened to Arroyo [also known as “GMA”],12 when she was not in the government, in the administration, she was jailed. RP: Ok, thank you. I just don’t know what will be the move of China, the other Duterte ally, in terms of getting some help. How they will maximize the situation and how such kind of forces would be organized into major organizations that will be part of the movement, the movement for change, the movement to overhaul the rotten capitalist system. Our standpoint, particularly as members of the PLM, is we are for systemic change; we are for the overhauling of the system, not replacing it with a new kind of law, a new kind of animal that will only preserve the interests of the big business sector. The leading manufactured goods include: electronics assembly, chemicals, food manufacturing, shipbuilding, textiles, fishing, petroleum refinery, and busine… Bayanihan socialism should also draw distinction from the “SocDem” type of socialism or the type being promoted by social-democratic groups, which merely aim to reform capitalism and the bourgeois state. What do you think the task right now is for the united front? The Communist Manifesto referred to them as the broad ranks of the proletariat, the broad section of the population who have nothing to lose in the struggle for a new system but the chains of slavery that bind them. RP: Right. Yeah. The Philippines is a democracy always being tested by violent anti-government rebel groups. Then just to make a compromise with them, the Cebu City government came up with a win-win solution. In the year 2000, the PDSP mobilized with civil society organizations and groups in support of the impeachment, which led to eventual removal of form… Why? Thanks for talking with me during this time. The last time they came up with this kind of status in Cebu is that the majority of the business, the majority of the businessman has already negotiated with the city government. There were so many surgical masks donated, 1 million here in Cebu, in the Visayas, the testing kits, and many donations from the private sector, and these were all not accounted until now. Well, there are still a lot of people to be organized. Of course there are the basic organizing efforts to rally the basic sectors which are affected by the pandemic. RP: Was the decision to rename it “Modified” Enhanced Community Quarantine in Cebu an economic decision? In the early surge of the socialist movement during the early part of the 19th century (1840s onwards), there was a need for more theoretical exposition of socialism. However, it is not ruled out that, as Arroyo fails to fulfil the promise of her 100-day programme for the poor, Estrada or his party at least, could become the beneficiary of their dissatisfaction. Socialism is an economic system characterised by social ownership and control of the means of production and cooperative management of the economy, and a political philosophy advocating such a system. Are you afraid that PLM will be targeted by the language of communism in the bill? The minority party. “Cebuanos are stubborn; Cebuanos are hard-headed; that’s why the COVID positive cases kept on increasing.” That is the main reason they give to the public; it’s because of you, you’re all stubborn, blah blah blah blah. The last time I think was during the extrajudicial killings when that issue was very very popular, it forced the church to issue a statement. Included among the working class is the broad and increasing ranks of the urban poor and the so-called “informal sectors” of society (the non-industrial sectors). TDN: Yes. Bayanihan also means solidarity (actually a more correct term than fraternity, which is based on family and clan). Because they don’t actually come up with a program that will totally solve the pandemic for the country. Before we were able to muster huge numbers in terms of mobilization. The goal of old socialism is measured on the volume of material production that keeps abreast with (or aims to surpass) the material production of the capitalist world. All the beaches were closed. Thank you for that good background. Where is the money? The Barangays3 have not seen relief from the government, so this is another reason why the COVID response failed.  by another landlord, by another big business capitalist. TDN: I think still education. But I think they are more worried that after the implementation of the bill, it will create chaos, and then the Duterte administration will be addressed, and it will affect not only the Philippine economy but the US as well. Bayanihan socialism promotes the women’s liberation movement, the feminist movement and the movement for gender equality. The draft document is being presented for discussion not only among PLM members, but also to the left and progressive movement, especially targeted at the new forces coming into the struggle. This is because the more widespread proponents of socialism at that time were grouped under so-called utopian socialism, a socialism that was based mainly on logic and reasoning, without much scientific or material foundation. With our remaining time, I’d like to ask how do you think the Anti Terror Bill can be defeated. History repeats itself, and the people’s sentiments should be maximized and be welcomed as part of our continuing struggle to effect change in the country. In the first half of the 19th century, early socialist thinkers like Henri de Saint-Simon, Robert Owen and Charles Fourier presented their ow… Why? where the democracy was already a failure. But this time around, if you broadly define terrorist, it exerts on I think legitimate rights just like doing a strike, like defending the communities and the poor from demolitions. How do we — how Cebu is able to get such kind of status, why? One of the ABS-CBN owners was once a Philippine Natural Resources secretary, Gina Lopez. Previously, they have been very active in environmental issues and of course the recent Anti Terror Bill. Countries That Are Considered Socialist China . So we are gearing toward preparing a unified action come July 27 during the State of the Nation Address of the Duterte administration. My mother is right now bedridden. The agricultural sector and of course other sectors depend on a normal situation.Â, So I don’t think if we will go down to the new normal, the real normal thing will be able to be regained. I think still education. Maybe we can enhance more on the lobbying, on some small dramatic actions where we can project our issues of concern, and make people participatory but not break whatever the rules will be in the new normal times. Some other points that were raised during the hearings that many of the congressmen lamented were about how the company projected them on the media, so these are personal motivations. That’s why the first year of Duterte was the payback for Arroyo. But still, as part of our own way of pressuring the government, we state that we think we have the moral grounds. This is more on popularizing the best offer that we can give is pursuing socialism. Now that we have discussed the Filipino left, I want to ask about the Filipino masses more broadly. But of course we are, in terms of how do we view these people, is that we are more comfortable with the other forces of the left, including the social democrats.
