COMMUNIST MANIFESTO

(PHILIPPINE CHAPTER)

By: Comrade Mark Cua

Part I 

The Bourgeisie and the Proletariat

The Lower Strata of the middle class-the small trades people, the shop keepers, and retired tradesmen

generally handicraftsmen and peasants-all these sinks gradually into the proletariat.

Partly because of their Dimunitive Capital does not suffice for the scale on which Modern Industry

is carried on, and is swamped into competition with the large capitalists

Thus the proletariat is recruited from all classes of the population."

-Communist Manifesto

(Philippine Chapter)

As the larger Capitalists and Bourgeisie are eating up the trades man, shopkeepers, and business owners small and medium ones, they are being likely to become the proletariat. First reason is that the income they had is either not enough or none at all. The Larger Capitalists eats them up and dominate the market these people are moving in as they are trading. 

The fierce competition with huge and large capitalists is often times bloody and unfair. They often oppress the small and medium business owners thus making sure they dominate the market and society. This is also same concept as to political dynasties.

They want to control more and more whats lacking is that their dead forefathers would rise from the dead and join politics too under the Philippine Democratic System. They eat up all the equal and wonderful opportunities as promised by the fallacies of Democracy. They want the power unto their own families just like the Spanish Encomienda system. 

Those victimized and oppressed are thus becoming the proletariat feared by the capitalists which they are trying to destroy.

Part I 

The Bourgeisie and the Proletariat

"Modern Industry has converted the little workshop of the partriarchal master into great factory of the industrial capitalists. 

Masses of Labour flooded into the factory and are organized like soldiers. 

As privates of the industrial army they are placed under the command of a perfect heirarchy of officers and sargeants. Not only they are the slaves of the Bourgiesie class but also by the Bourgiesie states.

The more openly this depotism proclaims gains to be the end and aim, the more petty, more hateful, and more embittering it is. "

-Communist Manifesto

(Philippine Chapter)

As you can evidently see that the Philippine Democratic Government are using the Filipino masses, proletariats, and workers as working slaves. As taxes are getting more and more, it is also more heavier to the part of the proletariats working for the capitalists. 

But what does the Filipino Masses, Proletariats, and workers get from those nothing. They just get oppressed from the corruption of the Philippine Democratic Government. When they steal billions and millions nothing happens to the Grafting and Corrupting Philippine Democratic Official. Justice is slow and is denied in the end. Police whom paid from the People's money are not doing their job and many of them are the criminals themselves. 

Often times they are the ones who are collaborating with the criminal elements in Society and keeping a blind eye from Justice. They themselves are the ones who are robbing people and giving information to criminal networks. 

Sometimes the officials in the Philippine Democratic Government are covering themelves and cover each others back thus making a fool out of the Filipino Masses, the proletariats, and the workers. The more these Philippine Democratic Officials does these and eludes Justice, the more the Philippine Democratic Government is despotic and hated. 

Justice is never served to the people and it is never fast especially to those guilty ones.

The Bourgesie and the Proletariat

"In proportion as the Bourgeoisie, ie Capital is developed in the same proportion is the proletariat

the modern class developed-a class of labourers who lived only so long as they find work

and who find work only so long as their labour increase capital.

These laborers who sell themselves piece meal are a commodity

like every other article of commerce and are consequently exposed to all vicissitudes of competition 

to all fluctuations of the market."

-Communist Manifesto

(Philippine Chapter)

The Proletariat are those who work for the Bourgoeisie for increase in income so they can have something to eat, spend, and feed their families. Proletariat are people who doesn't steal from others and yet they worked for the future within the Capitalist Company and payed their wages.

The Competition of labor force and their competency is indeed vital for the Proletariat because as time goes by modern technology is making life and work easier. The need of so much labor force is getting less and less. The Balance between the use of manpower and machines for production and other means are affecting the income and daily living of the proletariat. 

Sometimes they become the working ants of the Capitalist System yet they are deprived of their rights and their property. They are often even maltreated. As Greed of the Capitalist goes higher, the wages paid to the proletariat are lower to save more money. As wages are lower, the food prices and daily consumables needed by the proletariat are also getting scarcier. 

This is also a direct maltreatment of the labour force and the proletariat in reality without the soldiers of the industry which is the labor force or the proletariat production wouldn't be possible. The rich Capitalist gets richer and the labor force gets poorer. The Capitalists and the Democratic Government are neglecting the millions of families depending on those salaries. 

Democratic Government are also oppressing the Proletariat by siding on the capitalist and denying justice to the proletariat. They even tax heavily the labor force cutting off more portions of their salary and making lesser money for the proletariat to spend on their families.

The Bourgeoisie and the Proletariat

"The Conditions of the Bourgeoisie Society are too narrow to comprise the wealth created by them. 

And how does the bourgeisie overcome these crises?

On One hand by force destruction of a mass of productive forces

On the other, by conquest of new markets, and 

by the more thorough exploration of the old ones. 

That is so paving ways for more extensive and destructive crises

and by diminishing the means whereby crises prevented.

The weapons with which the Bourgoeisie felled feudalism to the grounds are now 

turned against Bourgousie himself."

-Communist Manifesto

(Philippine Chapter)

The conditions of the Bourgeisie on keeping their wealth and dominance above the rest are by eliminating the competitors either harm them or get rid of them. The Crisis of fierce competition especially in terms of politics are getting fiercier and fiercer. That the only ways the Bourgiesie and the capitalist would do is:

1. Get Rid of Competitors

2. Conquer others through Wealth Distribution

A Pattern you can see all the time under the Democratic Elections every 6 years. This indeed is slowly destroying the Democratic Government. Only they are the creators of their own destruction. As competition are getting hotter and intensified, These Political dynasties and these hungry for power so they can steal the peoples money and tolerate their fellow thieves are already provocative and using the means of getting rid of their competitors and paying off Religious Christian Organization which in turn playing sheep but within its wool is a wolf who only seeks the money. 

A very evident and obvious pattern in a democratic Government system especially under the Philippine Democratic System which caused Corrupt Officials, their political dynasties to reign over the Filipino People making the Filipinos lose their right to have Justice served and have the right to live in a prosperous and harmonious way of life. 

Due to these reasons, the kinds of people produced by are sexual predators, robbers, bandits, and immoral in characteristics.

it appears as if a famine, a universal war, a universal war of devastation  had cut off the supplies 

of every means of civilization. 

Too much Subsistence, too much industry, and too much commerce

The productive forces at the disposal of society no longer tend to the development of the conditions

(Philippine Chapter)

Because of the Media black out made by the AFP (Armed Forces of the Philippines) and Malacanang, Many doesn't know that the Philippines is now under a Civil War. The Civil War between the Philippine Democratic Government and the CPP (Communist party of the Philippines). 

Only those in the areas under the CPP (Communist Party of the Philippines) knows that the country is now divided into two factions. the Communist Faction whose members are the Filipino People, the farmers and others and the Democratic Faction run by the Corrupt officials and their political dynasties. 

Many Living in the cities cannot feel the Civil War because of the media black out with regards to these issue but you can see in the provinces the Civil War is getting much worse and Communist Faction is already gaining over the Philippine Democratic Government.

This is also censored by the ABS-CBN, GMA and other media under the Philippine Democratic Government. The Civil War turned Soldiers into bandits and robbers who torment the people in the provinces and even in the cities. If you can only see what is happening in the provinces, you can see there is a civil war going on in the Philippines. 

The Common Masses and the Proletariats are joining the Communist Party of the Philippines (CPP) fighting the Philippine Democratic Government.

"For many a decade past the history of industry and commerce is but a history of revolt of modern  productive forces against modern production, against property relations 

that are conditions for the existence of the bourgioisie and its rule."

-Communist Manifesto

(Philippine Chapter) 

In the past several decades, you can see the common masses and the people are revolting and rallying against the ruling bourgieousie. From Mendiola to NO to Pork Barrel Movement. The People had enough of these bourgeiousie and their abusive rule of Oligarchy. 

They are a burden to the Proletariats and merciless in terms of treating the proletariats. 

Revolts had been made not only CPP (Communist Party of the Philippines) but also by the Islamic Bangsamoro Freedom Fighters (BIFF) in Mindanao to end the rule of the Bourgeiousie and their abuse to the Filipino People. 

You can see many of these People in the Philippine democratic System are stealing peoples money and using them on their personal luxury. This include Political Families who almost everyone in their family are in politics like Estradas, Binays, Cayetanos, Enriles, Villars and others. All their properties are the hard earned money of the Filipino People and the tax payers. 

All they know was collect taxes and they give nothing in return of service to the people. The people each day are victimized and attacked by bandits and robbers and policemen did nothing but say blotter. When Politicians in power and position commits graft and corruption the Philippine Democratic Government keeps a blind eye and either Justice denied or delay justice. There are many others to be mentioned.

None of those in the Philippine Democratic Government were punished nor returned what they have stolen. These things causes Filipinos to revolt against the Philippine Democratic Government.

"Modern Bourgeousie society with its relations to the production, of exchange and of property, 

a society that has conjured up such gigantic mean of production and exchange 

is like a sorcerer who is no longer able to control the powers of the netherworld whom he called spells upon."

-Communist Manifesto

(Philippine Chapter)

  As you can see from the highest position in the Philippine Democratic Government to the lowest position, there are crooked officials. Even the Barangay Captain themselves are doing violations against the Filipino People themselves.

Their reason if the President and the Ombudsman is corrupt themselves why mustn't we? We should earn too the way the upper officials are. This is the chain reaction of the ineffective justice system and tolerance of the Democratic Government towards these Corrupt and Stealing Officials.

From Rape, to abuse of authority, these Democratic Officials are capable of doing these on a daily basis. The process of them winning the elections are through payments of Religious Organizations, Individuals, and even in exchange for something. Political Dynasties are unable to be controlled like a sorcerer unable to control his summoned creature.

Democratic Justice System itself is sick and ineffective. Where did you see a type of Government tolerating theivery, criminality, crookedness, and even corruption thus not even punishing them. Justice is not given to the Filipino people and let these crooks continue their crime spree inside the Philippine Democratic Government and even in the streets.

PNP (Philippine National Police) themselves are hiring criminals as their income earners and get their share  of loot. When accidents happen, you can see these officers are stealing from the victims themselves especially of things of value like Iphones. Bontoc Accident, and Don Mariano Accident you can see many of their belongings are missing as complained by the relatives and kins of the victims. On raids, when they see money they will photograph only the evidence and sooner or later you will see it spent by these crooked Officers and Officials in the Democratic System.

There are still many cases in the previous years with regards to the being a Clepto of Philippine Democratic Government.

The Clepto Illness of these Philippine Democratic Officers and Officials are out of control and doing their rampage. Who is the oppressed here? The Filipino People.

Bourgeisie and the Proletariat

"We see then the Means of production and of exchange on whose foundation the bourgeoisie built itself up

were generated by Feudal Society

At a certain stage of Development of these means of Production and of exchange, the conditions of feudal society produced and exchanged

Into their place stepped free competition, accompanied by a social and politcal constitution adapted in it

and the economic and political sway of the bourgeiosie class."

-Manifesto of the Communist 

(Philippine Chapter)

As you can evidently see in the production and exchange under the Democratic System, it is no different from the Spanish time encomienda system. Where only the few holds ownership and the others are just workers and even competition is just for those who have enough capital. 

Ayala Zobel, Pangilinan, and those influencial families from the Political Dynasties and Business Families are enjoying the Democratic Government system. Just like the Spanish times when the friars, the governor General, Alcalde, and those who belong to the Political clans are enjoying the Society run by Democracy. 

Under the conditions of this Democracy, they are the few, the influencial and those who have the right to get the money. The Filipino are deprived of their right to enjoy their own money and their own hard work. This is of no difference from a monarchial rule where Political Dynasties are reigning and abusing the people themselves. They are the warlords and these warlords just payoff mercenaries to get rid of the Filipino People who are fighting for their right to live, to see the NEW PHILIPPINES. 

The Villar Political Dynasty which has hectares of land and real estates which they used the stolen money from the Filipinos to purchase the lands as if it was their own bank accounts. The Villar Clan are Democratic Senator Cynthia Villar, Manny Villar, and their kins. Every property they own are the money of the Filipino People in which they stole from. 

The Enrile Political Dynasty which is in the Northern Cagayan and other Provinces. Enrile owned at least several mansions, luxurious cars, hectares of farmland, his son and daughter in law was one of the influencial in Cagayan. They are using the name Enrile to manipulate and threaten the people in the North. The Mining Companies are getting their ties closer to Enrile because they owned hectares of lands. The Enriles are one of the Political Dynasties involved in the PDAF Scam which is stealing from the Filipino People and using it on their own personal property but it wasnt their money. 

There are many other Poltical Dynasties in the Philippines who are involved and directly involved in stealing and using the People's money as if it was their own personal bank account.

"The Bourgeiousie has created more massive and more colossal productive forces

than have all the proceeding generations together. 

Subjection of Nature's Forces to man, machinery, application of chemistry to industry and 

Agriculture, steam navigation, railways, electric telegraphs, clearing of whole continents

for cultivation, canalization of rivers, 

Whole Population conjured out of the ground."

-Communist Manifesto

(Philippine Chapter)

If your Observant of the things around you can see what going on around the Philippines especially with Blessings from Bathala himself. In 1900s, Philippines was once covered by 95% lush green forests, clean rivers, wonderful scenery of Volcanoes surrounded by nature itself, and others. But if you can see it is barely the Philippines you see in the old photographs. 

This is because Philippine Islands are now populated in exchange for that huge population is the abuse of forests, rivers, and others. Statistics today is that only 5% or less of the Philippine Archipelago are the remaining covered land with lush green. The rest are either built by illegal settlers with shanties, or local Democratic Government consumed them for structures and other purposes including political practicing of their Political dynasty. 

Some are abused by allowing Mining into the said area causing the total destruction of the said River, plain, and mountains. 

You can see some are used by corporation as dumping sites for their toxic chemicals especially those belonging to the Capitalists owners. Before the advent of World War II, People burn down forests called Kaingin which caused destruction in the Natural environment. The Phases are these:

Lush Green to Farms

Farms to Towns

Towns to Cities 

Cities to Megacities

This is the never ceasing cycle of the Philippine Democratic Government operating and abusing our gifts from Bathala himself. We never denied Philippines is a gifted country especially with Natural Resources. But abusing it means it is being eaten alive and the vastness of these wondeful gifts of nature is getting smaller and smaller each day especially with the corruption of the Philippine Demcoratic Government towards mining activities, deforestation activities, and others.

"The Bourgeoisie keeps more and more doing away with scattered state of the population,

of the means of production, and of property.

It has agglomerated population centralized the means of production and property into a few hands."

-Communist Manifesto

(Philippine Chapter)

The Philippine Democratic Government is indeed leaving the major and minor industries into the hands of the few oligarchy. The Best Example here is Meralco abusing its monopoly and Big 3 of the Oil Companies found in the Philippines. 

The three big companies kept on manipulating and making Filipinos suffer more in terms of oligarchy. They raise the oil prices with their personal reasons if they want to and makes alibis. Look at the history of Oil Prices in the Philippines. 

In 1977 during the term of President Ferdinand E Marcos, it was only 2 pesos per gallon. But when Democratic President Cory entered it was raised to 8 pesos. After 30 years in the current times, it is now 33 pesos depending if it is gasoline, oil, or diesel. The History of Oil prices is an evidence the abusiveness of Oligarchy within the oil industry. 

Peso to US Dollar history of exchanges you can obviously see the ineffectiveness of the Philippine Democratic System. During the time of Carlos P Garcia and Ferdinand E Marcos, 1 Dollar is equal to 2 pesos. But after Former Democratic President Cory became the leader, it worsened into 10 pesos per 1 US Dollar. During the time of Ramos, it inflated badly to 46 pesos per dollar. 

The currency power is weakened is because it landed only on a few hands most of them are Pro US.

"In place of the old local and National Section and Self Sufficiency, 

we have intercourse in every direction, Universal interdependence of nations. 

And as in materials, so also is intellectual production.

National one sidedness and narrow mindedness becomes more and more rampant,and from numerous national and local literature, there arises a world literature."

-Communist Manifesto

(Philippine Chapter)

Before the Old Philippines, it was independent and widely interacting with the Chinese doing barter trades without being dependent with other nations. But when the Old Philippines (Philippine Democratic System) existed, it became highly independent to the United States and thus affecting its ability to be self sufficient. 

When the American Colonized the Old Philippines, they indeed erased the National Identity of the Filipinos and turning them into Colonial slaves. They taught them (Filipinos) dependence and censored what should be taught to them. 

The American Colonial Government brought world literature to erase the Local Literature which is the Soul of Filipino Culture. But the Chinese did otherwise instead of erasing the culture it manifested it by mixing both Chinese and Filipino culture which is now the way of life of many of the overseas born Chinese. 

The American Colonial Government are one sided and only taught their literature and thus doing what they did to the American Indians in the American Mainland. These literature especially those belonging to the great forefathers of the Filipino people are slowly dying and being erased from the minds of the Filipino youths today. 

Old Philippines is not doing its job protecting its own culture and improving its education system which is the main mold of the Filipino People.It should be mixed with the Chinese Educational System which molds the morality of the youths, the people inside and outside not just their intellectual knowledge.

To the great Chagrin of reactionists, it has drawn from under the foot of industry the national ground which it stood. 

All old established National Industries have been destroyed or are daily being destroyed

They are dislodged by new industries whose introduction becomes life and death question for all civilized nations

By Industries that no longer work up indingnious raw materials

but raw materials drawn from the remotest zone. 

In place of Old wants satisfied by the production of the Country

We find new wants requiring for their satisfaction the products of distant lands and climes."

-Communist Manifesto

(Philippine Chapter)

Philippines was once a beautiful country gifted by Bathala with wonderful forests, clean lakes, clear rivers, and high mountains. But it was abused badly by the Bourgeoisie and the Capitalists by destroying them and placing on them thick square kilometers long asphalts. 

Under the Philippine Democratic System, these are abused and daily facing the unceasing hands of human consumption, destruction, and over development. This includes the Gift from Bathala himself that made a postcard out of the Philippines as a country. 

Farmlands turns to Subdivisions

Farmlands that once sufficed the stomachs of the Millions of Filipinos around the Philippines was replaced by Subdivisions and Urbanized Areas that stopped the consumption and production of food supply. Forests that once lavish with rare wild life and rich Filipino ethnicity was endangered and daily swallowed by Corporate greed over exploitation of Natural resources and Over development of the places. 

People build houses over places that once lavished by hectares and vast Bathala gifted green lands.Thus leading to the development and destruction of the eco system. As human population grows in the area, so is its consumption of natural resources and along with its growth the consumption of vast green lands for human consumption leading to the balding of forests, the destruction of rivers, lakes and Bathala gifted ecosystems. 

These subdivisions are not producers of food and they are just homes that can be houses for millions of the population. Farmlands during the time of our forefathers once fed millions of our fellow Filipinos during their times. 

Dwindling Natural Resources and National Green Areas

Capitalists and Greedy Corporations take advantage of the Money faced Democratic Government Officials to buy green lands and destroy the nature around it. Some abuse it by chopping lumber and making them raw materials, while some use the land for mining of certain minerals which leads to the destruction of hectares of forests that once covered the land.

If you can see and compare the ecosystem in the Philippines for last 100 years, in just 100 years from 95% it dwindled to only 5% of the total land area are only covered by green lands and forests. These forests, mountains, rivers, lakes, and seas that are one of the main factors on tourism industry and one of the ace cards of Philippines. 

Natural Resources are sacrificed in exchange for the fast pace of growth on the total population. The Philippine Democratic Government doesn't even value the gift it had received from the heavens instead they succumb to the needs and to the overpopulation of the country.  

Losing Touch Filipino Culture and Self Suffiency

In Chain reaction with the losing of Farmlands, and fast dwindling of the natural resources in the country, Colonial Mentality is far worst than we think it is. Many of the Filipinos take no value of their own but sees foreign goods as more of value than their own special mention to western brands and those coming from the west. 

Instead of promoting and pushing Filipino Products, Philippine Democratic Government is fooling itself and making a monkey out of itself by allowing itself to be fooled by the American imperialists and western nations. 

Many of the Filipinos doesn't know how to value their own products, their own identity, their own Self Suffiency, and their own sovereignity. Philippine Tourism is also dying because of the Societal Security which is far worse than the time of our forefathers and our fathers. Robberies and theft is rampant causing the downsizing of the Tourism Industry in the Old Philippines.

Under the democratic System, there is so called "Padrino System". The System which implies I know who in the Philippine democratic Government and you cannot touch me. I can do whatever I want without being punished. They replaced the value system of credibility and trust with the Padrino which is no difference from being a mobster and gangster. 

However words spoken by the Democratic Government, they are just sweet words but no actions taken. They are just white elephants to fool people they can fool and make them believe the padrino system is gone.

"The Bourgeoiesie wherever it had gone upper hand had never put an end to all feudal ties that bound man to his 'Natural superiors'

and has left remaining other nexus between man and man than naked self interest than 'calous payments'

It had drowned the most heavenly ecstacies of religious fervour, of chivalrous enthusiasm, of philistine sentimentalism, icy water of egotostical calculations.

It had resolved the personal worth into exchange value , and in place of the numberless indefeasible chartered freedoms, 

has set up that single, unconscionable freedom- freetrade.

In one word the exploitation veiled by religious and political illusions 

it had substituted naked shameless, direct, brutal exploitation. 

It had converted physicians, lawyers, priests, poet, man of science into paid labourers.The Bourgeiosie has torn away from the family its sentimental veil, and has reduced the family relations into a mere money relations."

-Communist Manifesto

(Philippine Chapter)

The Bourgeiousie since the Colonial times had never done away feudal ties, and kingdom like Dynasty rule in the Political system. As evident and seen on the Philippine Democratic System, many of the Political families who had most of the offices and seats in the Philippine Democratic Government are abusive, arrogant, and will even take down political opponents if their power in the Democratic System is threatened. 

Look at the Estradas Political Dynasty, Binay Political Dynasty, Enrile Political Dynasty, Cayetano Political Dynasty, Aquino Political Dynasty, Revilla Political Dynasties and other families in the Philippine Democratic System who had everyone in their family and kins including cousins in the Philippine Democratic Government. They did nothing but steal from the people and use the hard earned money of the Filipinos for their personal luxury, mistresses, and pleasure. 

They never though of it that the money was from the broken backs of the Working class and those who pay their taxes. 

They bribe religious Christian Organizations, local officials, and even hoodlums just to make sure they stay in power in consecutive terms and make sure the flow of money they could steal from the people is constantly flowing. They would often use the money to pay off these organizations to be used as buying votes and block voting to the highest person who would pay the highest preachers and pastors in the said Religious Christian Organizations. Making the sense of elections worthless. This doesn't exclude the Roman Catholic Church and the born again religious Organizations.

When they are caught they would just deny it and payoff the judges and justice system. After recieving payment, the Philippine Democratic System would just delay justice until Justice is denied.  

If they are evil enough, they would even pay the lawyers of the victims and tell the lawyers to make the case lose. Many of the People won't work for you unless you have the money to pay them and they must be under your payroll. This include cops and army officers becoming personal bodyguards and private armies of these Political Dynasties.

Look at what happened to the cases of the number of charges to these Families, they are delayed and many of them are still on their mansions, luxurious cars, and mistress having the time of their life sweatless while the common masses Filipinos are working hard with a meagre salary just to have something to eat at the table. 

Who is the people abused here the Filipino themselves and the Philippines as country. There are many others that is expressed, and abuses of the Political Dynasties which is thousands which the Democratic Justice System is keeping a blind eye.

BOURGEOISIE AND THE PROLETARIATS

"Meantime the markets ever Growing, the demand ever rising

Even Manufacturers no longer sufficed. 

There upon, Steam and Machinery revolutionized the Industrial Production.

The Place of Manufacture was taken by Giant, Modern Industry

the place of the industrial middle class by Industrial Millionaires

The leaders of the whole industrial armies-Modern Bourgeois

Modern Industry has established the world Market.

We see there now the Bourgeiose is itself the product of a long course

of development, of series of revolutions in the modes of 

production and exchange"

-Manifesto of the Communist

(Philippine Chapter)

The Bourgeiose played a revolutionary part in the Local and National Industries in the Philippines. As you can see, Philippines was once a nation who produces rice, who exports shoes to other nations, who makes sugar cane an important part of Philippine Export. 

Also as Filipino Population grows they tend to neglect and forget how to live the way their forefathers taught them to live. The forefathers of the modern day filipinos are not robber or theives. They are honest barter partners thousands of years ago where you can leave a gold nugget there and come back to it a month after it is still there.

Now many of the Filipino are becoming dishonest and Graduating into Criminal minds. Just like those of Riding in tandems, petty theives on the streets and those who are lazy to work their way to success. They forgot the honest living and industriousness of their forefathers way back the pre spanish colonial times and the Spanish colonial times. 

The Dying Filipino Traditional Industries

None was left in the local and National traditional industry. Marikina was once a thriving shoe making place but as the Philippine Democratic Government stood on its way, it merely became a dying industry. Bicol regions were once known to make Jusi for Barong tagalogs. But as time goes by due to the incompetency of the Philippine Democratic Government, these traditional industries which marked the soul and the identity of the Filipino are dying in fast pace. 

They always think of Foreign foods and things are better than their own. Especially when it comes to Products from United States, France, and others. They had this Colonial Mentality. 

The Incompetence of many Filipino Youths

They are losing money fast and they are never passed down to the next generation. Tribal and Traditional Filipino values was even neglected by the very own Filipino youth themselves. If you can see 8 out of 10 of these youths are westernized. They have neglected their roots and their moral values as a Filipino and as Asians. 

Folk Dances and traditional culture was only practiced on small areas barely visible to the naked eye of the Filipino Youth. The traditional Filipino moral values of honesty and integrity was gone as some went to become robbers and theives out of greed and criminal mindedness. 

As the population of the Filipinos grew in the Philippines, so is their cultural value and moral values dwindling fast as their numbers increase. Where did you see a family who couldn't support and barely had the income had more children than those of the rich ones who is capable of feeding and bringing them to a better environment. 

The Modern Bourgioese himself have neglected his very own soul and his very own humanity as he dropped and forgot his moral values as a person. All he had in his mind in the Philippine Democratic System was how he or she gonna take advantage of the other person. Whether it is a sexual urge, or a business transaction they always want to prey with the other person. They always wanted to get the most benefits without even bothering to think of having equal benefits for the both for business transactions or financial in nature.  This mindset is called "crab mentality". 

The Filipino Youth themselves barely forgotten the language of their forefathers Spanish. They don't even know how to cherish the very identity that distinct them from the rest of the world.

Corporate Greed

Multi Billion Companies gather and form an alliance to eat away small ones. If they know this small business is a threat he will use financial resource to payoff the owner to get rid of the competition. Oligarchy is becoming common in the Philippine Democratic System. 

Just like what oil companies do they do Oligarchies. As for electricity and water services they monopolized and threaten the Proletariat.Giant Companies want to form alliances or get rid of competitors just to make sure they get all the money they wanted.The Democratic Government agencies themselves are cooperating with corporations to earn and get more money and benefits. 

The best example is ERC (Energy Regulatory Board) and DOE (Department of Energy) becomes the spokesman of Meralco itself. Instead of defending the Filipino people from the greed they are cooperating with them. A possibility of getting benefits from Meralco itself. They are even turning to become spokesman of Oil Companies who is hungry for more money from the Filipino People. 

Philippine Democratic Government itself is sick and hopeless now. If it is a person, he or she is already diagnosed with Aids or HIV. Communism is indeed the only answer if the Filipinos wanted to make the New Philippines a reality. 

Political Selfishness and Motives, Biased Justice System

The Philippine Democratic System is indeed good to the people because they need something from them. Due to their selfish aims and Personal Political Agendas the essence of elections are already losing its sacredness and becoming a mere tool for these Dirty Corrupt Political Dynasties, aspirants who wants to earn money and steal it from the people. 

These Selfishness are proven by only being active during elections and after that nothing happens, they would just forget their promises and and their officials and officers are day by day becoming stagnant and lazy to fulfill their sworn duties to the people. 

Often times paying off Religious Organizations to make sure they have fixed their winnings to become mayors, governors, mayors or other Philippine Democratic Positions. Which later they will just earn back by stealing from the people and remain unpunished. Using the people's money funds on paying these Religious Organizations and buying them to vote for them in elections through block voting. This had been happening for several decades of elections in the Philippine Democratic System. 

As they go up the ladder of Political positions, the more money they could steal but their morality as persons are downgrading until they merely become the problem themselves. This is done by many political dynasties which lacks their grandpas and grandmas would rise from the grave and join the Philippine Democratic Government too. Not only Political dynasties but aspirants and those who have close ties with political affiliations. 

If the Democratic Officials are threatened by being replaced in their desired positions, they would payoff hired gunmen and take down the competitor. This happens in all positions and places. This is done especially by Political Dynasties. 

Philippine Democratic Government's DOJ (Department of Justice) and the office of the Ombudsman is trying to cover up and whitewash the case of Pork Barrel and the misuse of the Billions of Pesos of the hard earned money of the Filipino People. 

They are trying to protect and delay justice for the Senators, Congressman, LGUs (Local Government Units), AFP (Armed Forces of the Philippines) Officers, PNP (Philippine National Police) and Cabinet members.

BOURGEOISIE AND THE PROLETARIAT

By: Mark Cua

"The Modern Bourgeoios Society that has sprouted from the ruins of feudal society had not done away with class antagonism. It had established new classes, new conditions of oppression, new forms of struggle in place of the old ones. 

Our epoch, the epoch of the bourgeoiose possesses however distinctive feature, it only simplified the class antagonisms. Society as a whole is more and more Splitting up into two great hostile classes directly facing each other-Bourgeoisie and Proletariat."

-Manifesto of the Communist

(Philippine Chapter)

Where did the Modern Bourgeoios come from? Had they done away the class antagonisms in Society?

The answer is that the modern Bourgeioise comes from the old Spanish Illustrados and Spanish Mestizas and Mestizos. Since Spain had ruled the Philippines for more than 333 years, they established an encomienda system which gives land to the officials and conquistadores who help the crown conquer the Philippines Islands. 

But the bad side of the encomienda system was the unequal rights and unequal treatment of the Filipinos by the Spaniards and the Spanish Friars. So After the successful revolution of 1892, Emilio Aguindaldo out of wishing to control the power plotted to kill Andres Bonifacio. 

Back in the days of the later years of the Spanish rule, Aguinaldo is considered a democratic leader and Andres Bonifacio is considered a radical leader who is willing to see real change. Just like our dear Comrade Jose Maria Sison and Ka Roger in the CPP (Communist Party of the Philippines) in our times.

If Andres Bonifacio wasn't duped and killed by Aguinaldo in the later years of the 19th Century, Philippines would never be the same now. This is where the Modern Philippine Bourgoeise came from and sprouted. From inability and greed of Emilio Aguinaldo. 

But now in modern times, the class antagonism is just simplified but it wasn't actually gone for good. As you can see, Bourgeoise are the Corrupt Officials (Senators, Congressmen, LGUs (Local Government Units), and the political dysnasties present in the Philippine Democratic System, Officers of the AFP (Armed Forces of the Philippines). 

The Proletariat are the Ordinary Filipinos, the businessmen, the workers or labourers who are not stealing from others. These are the oppressed through heavy taxation and abusive collection while the Bourgeoise class just steal, abuse their power, misuse funds for their mistresses, selfish luxurious ambitions, mansions, expensive cars. None of these Burgoeise are punished because they are oppressing the Proleratiats by making the Justice system blind as a bat.

Where did you see a Bourgeoise punished for his or her crimes and scandals? Where did you see the Proletariats who got their rights served and their Social Justice given to them without political colour or biased Justice?

Sad to say this is happening the Philippine Democratic System. 

The very officials who stole, misused funds, and abused their power through Political dysnaties and affiliations by manipulating elections and threatening the capable ones are still in offices, in their mansions, in their thrones unpunished savouring the luxurious life of what they stole from the Filipino people.

BOURGEOIS AND THE PROLETARIANS

By: Mark Cua

"The History of all the hitherto existing Society is the history of Class Struggles. 

Freeman and Slaves, Patrician and Plebian, Lord and Surf, Datu and Timawa, Guildmaster and Journeyman, in a word Oppressor and Oppressed. Stood on constant opposition to one another carried an uninterrupted now hidden, now open fight, a fight that each time ended, either in a revolutionary reconstitution of society at large or in common ruin of the contending classes."

-Communist Manifesto

(Philippine Chapter)

Philippine History has a long history since time reminisince. From the Pre Spanish Period to the modern times, there are countless fights between Opressor and Oppressed. 

PRE SPANISH COLONIAL TIMES

In the Pre Spanish Period, The ruling classes are called Rajahs, Datus, and Sultan. The People are subdivided into two the freeman and the Timawas (Slaves). In tagalog it is called "Alipin". During the Spanish Era, the Spaniards used the encomienda system to keep lands and enslave the Filipinos. Spaniards are considered landlords and the Filipinos are workers or farmers working for them. They are treated unequal. 

Alipins or Slaves are treated as under class and have no rights. Only Rajahs, Datus, and Sultans have the priviledge to enjoy the fruits and labour of the workers and farmers of those times. The Absolute power of the Datus are often times abused thus leaving the Alipin Saguiguilid and Timawas as working carabaos for the Datus. 

SPANISH COLONIAL TIMES

Since the Arrival of the Spaniards in the Philippines, the conquistadores of Miguel Lopez de Legazpi became landlords as payment for their services to the Spanish Crown. They took hundreds of Filipino natives and slaves into their encomienda or farms as slaved labourers. 

The Spaniards ruled the Philippines for more than 333 years. for 3 centuries this system lead to the abuse and unequal treatment of the Spaniards to the Filipino Natives and Illustrados. Spanish Officials who committed the crimes and abuses are not punished and stayed in power. 

Throughout Philippine History, there are number of uprisings against the Spaniards but they were countless times oppressed because of traitors and turn coats. But in 1896, under the leadership of Gat Andres Bonifacio the revolution of the Proletariats and the common masses toppled down the Spanish Crown in the Philippines. 

AMERICAN COLONIAL TIMES

After the defeat of the Spaniards, the Americans entered the Philippines and started to mock the Commonwealth Government. Although during the early 20th Century it is a colony of United States, United States set unfair and unequal laws for its colonies. The fight between the Filipino Patriots and the American ruling class is also in constant fight with each other. 

There are numerous unequal laws made and implemented by United States in the Philippines. How they treated Filipinos in terms of Education and Social treatments. They treated the Filipinos 2nd Class Citizens. 

American Officers and Colonial Officials have the priviledge to use the resources while Americans never allowed the Filipinos to enjoy the fruit of their labour. Taxes on lands are so high many Filipino common masses went from poor to poorer.

The Americans abandoned the Filipinos When the Japanese Imperial Army invaded the Philippines. it can be considered oppression. After so many people died in the side of the Filipinos and Filipina women are raped by the Japanese intruders, the Americans came with ease because the hard fight was fought by the Filipinos. The easy fight was done by the Filipino HUKBALAHAPS (Hukbong Sandatahan Laban sa Hapon). 

The Cowardice of the Americans after it was bombed and defeated by the Japanese Imperial Force in the Philippines. They retreated and Commonwealth President Manuel L Quezon and Manuel Roxas abandoned the Filipinos instead of staying in the Philippines fighting with them. The Mockery and abuse of the Americans to the Filipinos is indeed evident and considered Oppression.

How many Filipinas are already raped? How many Filipino and liberation fighters are already wounded and killed?

OLD PHILIPPINE REPUBLIC

During the time of the New Republic, The promises of good life was neglected by the Philippine Democratic Party. Although Philippines was declared independent from the United States but through Colonial Mentality it is reliant to the United States. You can see from the influence of the Americans in the Philippine Democratic Government. 

Officials only became active during election period but after that they became pigs in their throne. Even if they committed a crime they are not punished and Justice is denied. Sometimes delayed intentionally. 

NEW MODERN TIMES

Up to now, you can evidently see the same Opressor and Oppressed are in the Philippine Democratic Society. 

How many Senators and Congressmen are punished for their crimes against the People? Are there soldiers are punished for their abuse and purging of Political enemies? Are there an effective Social Justice when someone is killed or being killed? Where did you see Policemen just stay in their precincts and flirt with women while the people outside is at the mercy of these outlaws and lawless elements? Each year there are at least thousands of crimes including petty crimes all over the Philippines. 

There are many more cases similar to these happening within the Justice System of the Philippine Democratic Government. 

Justice is indeed selective and biased. A Democratic Government like this is indeed not a good government. The Continuous fight between Oppressed (The People) and Oppressor (Philippine Democratic Government) is indeed very evident in the daily life living under the Democratic System.
