Duterte Gives Go Signal for Martial Law Remembrance Activities

Go ahead.

President Rodrigo Duterte is encouraging activities to commemorate the 44th anniversary of the declaration of martial law but it should not cause public inconvenience.

“The President encourages various activities to commemorate the occasion as long as they are peaceful and no public inconvenience or destruction of properties may ensue,” Communications Secretary Martin Andanar said in a statement.



Despite being a regular working day, Andanar 
said the significance of the event was never forgotten.

“It will be governance as usual. This, however, does not mean the significance of the day is lost to the collective memory of the nation,” he said.

Various militant groups are set to stage a rally in Mendiola, Manila to call for justice to the victims of human rights violation during the Martial Law years.
