“In fact, the National Intelligence and Coordinating Agency has reported that COURAGE has been infiltrated by the Makabayang Kawaning Pilipino , an underground mass organization that advocates for armed struggle under the direct control of the CPP-NPA-NDF,’’ said Florece. Gaite earlier called out the DILG, citing the memorandum of DILG Assistant Secretary for Public Safety and Security Alexander Macario that supposedly “red-tagged” the group that Gaite.
But Florece said they would rather focus their attention on the pandemic: “The DILG has its hand full fighting the pandemic for more than a year now that it has no time and energy to engage in his wild schemes.”
