Bonifacio Day memorializes what’s not only foundational to Filipinos but a beacon for the world: our continuing and fierce resistance against odds is a model for world resistance against fascism, impunity, and corruption. Mabuhay ang protesta ngbayan laban sa Marcos-Duterte regime.

On Bonifacio Day, Filipinos all over the world took to the streets to demand that all those implicated in stealing from the Filipino people be held accountable for their crimes.

In the United States, the clamor for justice and accountability were echoed by Malaya Movement chapters and other progressive Filipino organizations, inspired by Bonifacio’s revolutionary legacy of fighting for genuine, systemic change.

We welcome the ICC arrest warrant for former PNP Chief and current Senator Bato Dela Rosa for his crimes in Duterte’s drug war. The Philippine government must immediately facilitate Bato’s arrest and transfer to the Hague where he must face consequences as chief architect of Duterte’s drug war.

As more than 200,000 people flooded the streets in the Philippines, Filipinos overseas took part in the widespread protest against corruption, impunity and fascism, including Malaya Movement USA chapters across the United States on the 53rd anniversary of Marcos Sr.’s declaration of Martial Law.

JUSTICE DELAYED IS JUSTICE DENIED! PUT DUTERTE ON TRIAL NOW!

The International Criminal Court’s indefinite postponement of Duterte's confirmation hearing is a disgrace. Duterte has been given more grace and leeway than was ever provided to his 30,000+ drug war victims and the thousands more in his all out war against activists and human rights defenders.

Malaya USA joins Filipinos across the U.S. and around the world in condemning today’s move of the Philippine Senate to “archive” the articles of impeachment against Vice President Sara Duterte. This Senate decision effectively kills the impeachment trial and ignores the Filipino people’s widespread demand to hold her accountable for charges of massive corruption of public funds and abuse of her office. Legal loopholes and procedural technicalities have been abused by the majority pro-Duterte Senate to protect the interests of the oligarchic political dynasties.
