In a press statement, Ka Norsen Manggubat, spokesperson of CPP-North Central Mindanao Region commended all cadres and members, all field commanders and NPA fighters, activists and members of various revolutionary mass organizations, and all the friends of the revolution on the victories they have attained in advancing the people’s democratic revolution.

“Above all, we offer this celebration to our revolutionary martyrs whose sacrifices took us to this present stage of our struggle.  For the eight fallen comrades who unselfishly offered their lives this year,” he said.

In the ideological front, Manggubat said, they have accomplished the task of raising the level of theoretical knowledge of our party cadres and members through the three-level courses that would equip them in assuming leadership roles on the various level of our revolutionary tasks.

Manggubat claimed that they have launched 31 batches of the Basic Party Course in order to provide 800 Party members the basic knowledge of Marxism-Leninism-Maoism where majority came from the localities.

“We need to double or triple these efforts in order to catch up with the required education of even just half of our Party members whose numbers increase each year. 122 Party cadres completed the Intermediate Party Course conducted in six batches while 41 cadres from the SRC, main regional NPA unit, and regional staffs finished the Advanced Party Course. We have overcome the limitations of cadres having low-literacy level in theoretical comprehension with the aid of high-tech audio-visual equipment,” he said.

They claimed that rebel cadres have attained a certain level of skill in conducting social investigation and class analysis (SICA) especially on the matter of feudal and semifeudal exploitation prevailing in respective area of operation.

This skills would become the concrete bases for the upsurge of widespread and simultaneous peasant movement in implementing the minimum programs of the revolutionary land reform that are closely interlinked with the anti-fascist and anti-imperialist struggles.

“The cadres’ and the peasant masses developed sharp cognition of class enemies as well as the intensity of exploitation and oppression of the landlords, big bourgeosie capitalists and the imperialist plantations which instilled class hatred into their consciousness,” he said.

Subject of the draft summing up of the region is  to draw lessons from the entire 12-year course of our revolutionary work,  distinguish correct from wrong practices and experiences, deepen our analysis of the situation and incidents, the problems and setbacks encountered and the steps taken to address them, part of the statement said.

Manggubat added “from these lessons, the region is certain to pursue its tasks along the right track set forth in the general program of the Party’s central leadership in attaining the strategic stalemate and total victory in the coming years.”
