Sen. Bam Aquino, pinipilit ang mga estudyante na bumuo ng mas madami pang KILOS PROTESTA!

The government should not use free education to “blackmail” or prohibit students from exercising their right to free expression and dissent, Sen. Benigno “Bam” Aquino IV said Tuesday.

“The free college law is a form of benefit to the Filipino people, and should not be used for blackmail or as hush money,” Aquino said.

Presidential spokesperson Harry Roque told University of the Philippines (U.P.) student protesters on Saturday not to “waste taxpayers’ money” by not attending classes to join protests. He said the Duterte administration’s Free College Education Act or R.A. 10931 would go to waste if students miss their classes.

 His comment came a day after President Rodrigo Duterte said that he would replace protesting U.P. students with bright lumad students from Mindanao.

“Earlier today, they walked out. Go ahead,” Duterte said Thursday. “If you don’t want to go to school, get out of there because I will bring [indigenous] students who are bright and put them there. A lot of Filipinos want to have an excellent education.”

Moreover, several students from U.P. Diliman walked out of their classes to participate in the National Day of Walkout Against Tyranny and Dictatorship held also on Thursday.

In addition, Aquino also called on student leaders from different schools to organize more protests and to show that government that students should not be ignored.
