Educator
• On platform for real change, peace and federalism
• On the current administration leadership and governance styles
Therefore, GANAP-KTP is part of the bigger movement for real social change. It will not be competing with other forces, but work in parallel with them, complementing them, in educating, organizing and mobilizing not only the solid FEDERAL forces, but also the broader segments of the Filipino communities who remain unorganized, and aspiring for real national and social change. It will work closely with and support other patriotic and democratic forces, the Muslim organizations, the Lumad communities, struggling for just and lasting peace based on social justice. It will thus support the struggles and agenda of the farmers, workers, fishers, urban poor, youth, women, indigenous people, professionals, small entrepreneurs, and migrant workers. Though serving as the citizens' arm of the current government, GANAP-KTP will maintain its independence and initiatives in all its undertakings, ensuring and defending foremost the interests and aspirations of the Filipino working class and the poor, oppressed and exploited.
