Janine Gutierrez: #DefendUP #DefendUP
Frankie Pangilinan: “red-tagging students just proves how insecure and threatened this administration has become. protect our students. defend our rights. be brave… this sort of unprovoked desperation from the establishment only proves that change IS possible, and likely very close — continue to speak out and fight for what’s right. we stand with you. #DefendUP.”
Enchong Dee: “Because they are afraid of people starting a revolution. They’re in dire need to hold on to power and money as much as they can.”
Atom Araullo: “The DND should ask: why is the UP community troubled by the unilateral abrogation of the accord? Surely they don’t think all of the people there are communists.”
