“In line with its counterinsurgency program, the Duterte regime kills 2 per week and arrests 20 individuals in the same period – many of the victims are farmers and indigenous peoples. No doubt this figure will be whitewashed to give way to the administration’s conjured version of an imagined state of the nation. The reality of the country under Duterte is tainted with the blood and sufferings of the poor, denied of their rights and continuously being burdened by the government’s repressive and anti-people policies,” said Karapatan secretary general Cristina Palabay.
