Caravan set to call on GPH-NDFP peace talks resumption

An alliance of major peace networks – PHILIPPINE ECUMENICAL PEACE PLATFORM, WAGING PEACE PHILIPPINES, PILGRIMS FOR PEACE and SULONG CARHRIHL – who collectively call themselves as CITIZENS ALLIANCE FOR JUST PEACE, will be holding a Peace Gathering and a Caravan from Quezon Memorial Circle to Plaza Miranda on Monday, September 2 to kick-off the Peace Month celebration. The gathering is also a part of the commemoration of the Hague Joint Declaration, an agreement signed by the Government of the Philippines (GPH formerly known as GRP) and the National Democratic Front of the Philippines (NDFP) in September 1, 1992 which lays the framework of peace negations.

“This initiative is a part of our effort to gain the much needed support for the GPH-NDFP Peace Process. We believe that peace talks should immediately resume, thus we call on the GPH and NDFP to go back to the negotiation table.” Said Joeven Reyes, Executive Director of Sulong CARHRIHL.
The caravan will start at Quezon City Memorial Circle at 8:00AM and will head to Plaza Miranda in Quiapo, Manila. Few stops will be made along the caravan’s route, one in Sto. Domingo Church grounds and another in University of Sto. Tomas where short programs shall be conducted.
