MANILA, Philippines — State forces will monitor the activities of organizations inside the University of the Philippines following the abrogation of the 1989 accord between UP and the Department of National Defense (DND), according to a military official.
Lt. Gen. Antonio Parlade the other night said in an interview on One News’ “The Chiefs” that the military would monitor the activities of organizations within the UP system, alleging that the campus has been the “center of gravity” for the recruitment of young cadres for the communist New People’s Army (NPA) through front organizations.
“Let’s just stick to the monitoring, we have been doing monitoring functions as part of our mandate. That is part of the job of the security sector,” said the chief of the Southern Luzon Command and spokesperson for the National Task Force to End Local Communist Armed Conflict (NTF-ELCAC).
