This May 1, we honor all workers—wherever they are—whose hands and hearts sustain our nation. Today, we especially recognize our fisherfolk and farmers, whose labor feeds and nurtures our communities.

We also salute our youth volunteers, who not only excel in their own fields but tirelessly stand alongside POINTY Inc. to carry forward the advocacy of peace and development.

Together, with honesty, dignity, and sincerity, we build a future rooted in labor, service, and unity.

Ang kaligtasan ng kabataan ay hindi dapat ikompromiso. Ang mga mapanlinlang na grupo tulad ng CPP-NPA-NDF ay madalas gumagamit ng mga pekeng pangako at mapanligaw na online trends para makuha ang loob ng ating kabataan.

Dito sa POINTY Inc., kami ay nakatayo bilang kalasag ng susunod na henerasyon. Makakaasa kayo na narito kami upang ilantad ang mga mapanlinlang na taktikang ito at magbigay ng tamang gabay upang manatiling ligtas ang ating mga kabataan—sa ating mga komunidad man o sa digital na mundo.

Ang aming paninindigan:
✅ 𝐏𝐚𝐠𝐩𝐚𝐩𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐰𝐚𝐤 𝐧𝐠 𝐊𝐚𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐦𝐚𝐧: Binibigyang-kapangyarihan ang mga magulang at kabataan na makilala ang mga senyales ng mapanirang rekrutment.
✅ 𝐃𝐢𝐠𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐥 𝐒𝐞𝐜𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐲: Sinisiguro na ang online spaces ay mananatiling lugar para sa pagkatuto, hindi para sa pagsasamantala.
✅ 𝐀𝐤𝐬𝐲𝐨𝐧 𝐬𝐚 𝐊𝐨𝐦𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐝𝐚𝐝: Pagbuo ng isang "Ligtas na Komunidad" kung saan ang bawat bata ay malayang makakapag-aral at lalaking walang takot.

Mga kabatan-onan, kita ang paglaom sa nasud.

Sa matag hagit nga moabot, hinumdumi nga ang atong kusog dili lang makita sa pisikal nga panagway, apan sa kalig-on sa atong kasingkasing ug pagtuo. Ayaw kamo pagpadala sa mga pagpangdaot, kasuko, o sayop nga impluwensya nga nagtinguha nga samokon ang atong hunahuna ug gub-on ang atong kaugmaon.

Sa kasamtangang kahimtang sa Pilipinas, nga nag-atubang sa krisis ug panagbangi sa politika nga nagdala og pagkabahinbahin sa katawhan, daghang hagit ug problema ang giatubang sa nasud. Ayaw kamo pag-apil sa mga rally nga puno sa kasuko ug negatibong aktibismo nga nagpalala lang sa kagubot. Ang tinuod nga kausaban dili makab-ot pinaagi sa kasaba ug panagbangi, apan pinaagi sa kalinaw, disiplina, ug pagtuo sa Diyos.

Barug kamo sa matarong, magpabiling lig-on, ug ayaw tugoti nga mawala ang inyong paglaom. Importante ang atong tingog, apan labi pang importante ang atong kasingkasing nga puno sa gugma, respeto, ug pagtagad sa isigkatawo.

Taliwala sa kasaba ug pagpangdani sa mga grupo nga nagdala og pagkabahinbahin, pilia ang dalan sa kalinaw, panaghiusa, ug kalamboan. Ang atong kaugmaon hayag kung kamo magpabiling lig-on, magbinantayon, ug adunay pagtuo nga ang kaayo kanunay magmadaugon.

Hinumdumi, ang kabatan-onan nga adunay pagtuo ug paninindigan dili matanggong sa bisan unsang balod sa sayop nga ideolohiya. Kamo/kita mao ang suga nga magdala og paglaom sa umaabot nga henerasyon.

Mabuhay ka POINTY, Mabuhay ang Kabataang Pilipino!
