State of the Nation Address of President Rodrigo Duterte delivered at the Batasang Pambansa Complex, Quezon City on July 24, 2017.
When the battle between government troops and extremists in Marawi City erupted two months ago, 33 year-old Rosemina Mocsana, a mother of two children aged 11 and 12, evacuated with her family walking an estimate of four kilometers from the Mindanao State University?-?Marawi City compound going to Saguiaran town in Lanao del Norte to flee ?from ?the conflict area. They left their place at 8?:00 ?am and arrive in Saguiaran at 3?:00 ?pm. They had to pause ?every now and then to let ?t?he?i?r mother, who was suffering arthritis, rest.
Habang patuloy ang gyera sa Marawi, patuloy rin ang kahirapan ng libo-libong pamilya, lalo na ang mga nag desisyong makitira sa bahay ng mga kamag-anak. Sa harap ng pinagsasabi ng mga ahensya, marami pa rin sa mga home-based evacuees ang walang sapat na suplay ng pagkain, kaya, marami sa kanilang mga bata ay nagkakasakit.
It is thus with profound discontent and indignation that we, the National Union of Peoples’ Lawyers, join the Filipino people in denouncing the Duterte regime for its failed promises, bourgeoning tyranny, and oppressive disdain for the people’s lives and human rights.
