Bayanihan Online joins our fellow Filipinos in mourning the deaths of innocent civilians who were murdered on 23 November 2009. We condemn the killing of men and women, fathers and mothers, sons and daughters, public servants, journalists, citizens – all victims who have suffered in the hands of murderers who have no shame and conscience. We condemn President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo’s government who has fostered a culture of impunity and crime. We will be vigilant in rallying for justice. We will fight for the truth.
NEVER FORGET
