Event Details
Who’s Afraid of UP?
The University of the Philippines Alumni Forum would like to invite you to a web-forum about our UP Nating Mahal’s most recent developments.
For its first offering, the Tambayan Series focuses on the Philippine military’s seemingly renewed hostility towards the state university.
Just consider:
The Defense Secretary himself terminated the decades-long UP-DND Agreement;
The DND, again, labeled UP as a breeding ground and recruitment base of the New People’s Army, and;
The Armed Forces chief tagged 18 UP students who he said joined the NPA and were killed.
