Philippine Protesters Rally Over Controversial Anti-Terror Bill

By: Enrico Dela Cruz
MANILA (Reuters) - More than 1,000 Filipinos on Friday braved the threat of
coronavirus infection to protest a controversial new anti-terrorism bill, which
is awaiting Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte’s signature.
The demonstration, spearheaded by anti-Duterte activists, was held as the

Philippines marked the 122nd anniversary of its independence from Spanish
rule.
Human rights activists have raised alarm over the bill pushed by Duterte,
warning of draconian and arbitrary provisions, including arrest without
warrants, that they say could be abused to target his detractors.
“It looks like we will lose our basic rights because of this anti-terrorism bill,
especially our right to express our concerns with the government,” said Ofelia
Cantor, one of the more than 1,000 protesters at the University of the
Philippines’ main campus in the capital Manila.
Wearing face masks and observing physical distancing to protect themselves

from the coronavirus, the protesters held placards and chanted slogans such
as “Junk terror bill!” and “Activists not terrorists!”.
20
Presidential spokesman Harry Roque has defended the bill, saying elements
were modelled on those used in countries that had dealt effectively with
extremism.
Interior Secretary Eduardo Año said he had instructed the police to exercise
maximum tolerance while monitoring the protesters, even as he warned mass
gatherings are prohibited under the country’s coronavirus quarantine rules.

What is It
Excellent!
This is the time for you to learn new ideas that would help to increase your
knowledge and skills. So, get your pens and notebook now to jot down notes while
reading the lesson.
Let’s continue the discussion!
Based on the book of (Melegrito et. al 2016), a civil society

are comprised of groups or organizations working in the interest
of the citizens but operating outside of the governmental and for-
profit sectors. Also, it is state or situation of people living in a
community or nation having shared interest, values and
purpose getting benefit to have right of individuals, enjoying
liberty, and to have resources to develop personal potential.
The Context of Civil Society
• It is also an organization and institution that make up civil society that

includes labor unions, non-profit organizations, churches, and other service
agencies that provide an important service to society but generally ask for very
little in return.
• It is often populated by organizations such as registered charities,
development non-governmental organizations, community groups, women's
organizations, faith-based organizations, professional associations, trade
unions, self-help groups, social movements, business associations, coalitions
and advocacy groups.
The Context of Civil Society in the Philippines
• The basis for civil society in the Philippines comes from the Filipino concepts
of pakikipagkapwa (holistic interaction with others) and kapwa (shared inner
self).
• Voluntary assistance or charity connotes for Filipinos an equal status between
the provider of assistance and the recipient, which is embodied in the terms
damayan (assistance of peers in periods of crisis) and pagtutulungan (mutual
self-help).
22
• The Western notion of kawanggawa (charity) may have been introduced to the
Philippines by Catholic missionaries (ADB, 2007).
Historical Context of CSO in the Philippines (Abenir and Alipao 2016)
• The Roman Catholic Church and the religious orders established the first civil
welfare organizations in the Philippines.
• The Roman Catholic Church founded parochial schools, orphanage, and
hospitals that were mostly reserved for the local elite.
• The church also established foundations and cofradías (brotherhoods) which
encouraged neighborly behavior such as visiting the sick and helping with
town fiesta preparations.
• During the Marcos administration, many civil society organizations (CSOs)
built up strong relationships with poor communities.
• It is not legally mandatory for CSOs in the Philippines to register with the
government, and many people’s organizations and other small organizations
do not do so.
• However, only registered organizations gain a legal status that permits them
to enter into contracts and open a bank account.
Legal Bases of CSO in the Philippines: (1987 Constitution, Article XIII: Social
Justice and Human Rights, Section 15)
• The State shall respect the role of independent people’s organizations to

enable the people to pursue and protect, within the democratic framework,
their legitimate and collective interests and aspirations through peaceful and
lawful means.”
Local Government Code in terms of CSOs (Chapter 4. Relations with People’s
and Nongovernmental Organizations)
• Section 34. Role of People’s and Non-Governmental Organizations

• Section 35. Linkages with People’s and Non-Governmental Organizations.
• Section 36. Assistance to People’s and Non-Governmental Organizations.
Civil society groups in terms of legality
• Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) - many types of CSOs register

with the SEC, including development NGOs, including people’s organizations,
farmers’ associations, athletic organizations, and sports associations, social
