Amid the worsening socioeconomic crisis driven by imperialist wars of aggression, neoliberal plunder, and foreign domination, the people are called to confront the forces that keep the Philippines chained as a neocolony.
Themed “Imperialist Crisis and War: A People’s Alternative Forum to the ASEAN Summit 2026,” the forum will serve as a space to expose how ASEAN’s history and neoliberal policies have advanced the interests of imperialist powers and big capital at the expense of workers, peasants, youth, and other oppressed sectors.
Meet our speakers on May 8 at the Arts and Sciences (AS) Hall of UP Cebu as they discuss how these policies deepen dependence, exploitation, and repression—and why the people’s collective struggle remains the only genuine alternative toward national sovereignty and liberation.
