Malaya Movement condemns the increase of U.S. militarism in the Philippines and the continued collaboration of the fascist Marcos and Trump regimes, which will further endanger Filipinos as the U.S. ramps up its conflict with China. In early January 2026, the U.S. revealed its new Army Rotational Force-Philippines, which has already been covertly operating since July 2025, further stepping up its military presence in the country under the guise of protecting the region from "Chinese coercion".

On the 127th anniversary of Philippine independence from Spain, Malaya Movement USA calls on the Filipino people to continue the historic legacy of resistance and fight for the full realization of genuine independence and sovereignty in the Philippines. We must fight against Marcos Jr.’s selling out of our land, waters, economy, and labor to foreign powers and free our motherland!
