Protesters condemn Filipino President Duterte's government during remembrance holiday

Hundreds of progressive groups gathered today at the National Heroes Shrine in Quezon City, the Philippines on August 31 to denounce the regime of President Rodrigo Duterte.

Criticisms of Duterte's violent regime include his abuse of human rights and press freedoms because of his war on drugs campaign, anti-terror law, as well as massive unemployment and shutting of the largest broadcast station in Philippines during the pandemic.

Protesters bring roses to offer for all people killed for political reasons during Duterte's term, as the day is also National Heroes Day, and one of commemoration.
