El gobierno reaccionario de Filipinas expulso al activista holandes Thomas Van Beersum que fue detenido el pasado martes depues de participar en una manifestación contra la politica gubernamental.
El camaradas, un conocido defensor de la causa del pueblo filipino, fue detenido por agentes de inmigración acusado de actuar contra la seguridad del Estado. Diversas organizaciones populares de Filipinas y del resto del mundo habian reclamado su puesta en libertad.
UPDATE FROM THOMAS
Am now in Hong Kong
waiting for my flight back to Amsterdam. I was not allowed to board my
plane and to go back to my country yesterday morning. I got detained for
about 30 hours at the airport just so the immigration officials could
deport me. This harassment is obviously done to distract the people from
the actual problems that the country faces, such as the almost total
domination of its econom...y
by foreign capitalists and the complicity of comprador puppets such as
Aquino. And let's not forget the human rights abuses under Aquino's
administration either. So far there have been 142 documented cases of
extrajudicial killing and 164 frustrated killing; 16 incidents of
enforced disappearance; 76 cases of torture and 293 cases of illegal
arrest and detention.
I want to thank the people and groups that have been supporting me and although I've been blacklisted, I will still firmly support the just struggle of the Filipino people for social and national liberation. Mabuhay
