No Money for Rally! Cavite Protesters Return Home Early Empty Handed
At least 350 SONA protesters from Cavite returned home early today after a national organizer told them that there is no budget for them.
Mario Sanggalang, leader of Samahang Magsasakang Caviteño (SMC) and local organizer told DZMM that they are disappointed on how the Bagong Alyansang Makabayan (Bayan), headed by its secretary general Renato Reyes Jr., handled the budget.
“Isang buwan pa lang bago sumapit ang SONA napag mitingan na namin kung magkano dapat ang budget kada tao. Eh ang siste e nong dumating na ang takdang araw wala raw budget sa amin. Karamihan dito gumising pa ng medaling araw para wag lang maiwan angs ervice tapos ngayon sablay. Ang malaking problema naming ngayon eh kung papano bayaran tong mga jeep na inarkila naming”, Sanggalang said.
The militant leader said he could not find a single national organizer when he went to Bayan’s headquarters early today.
“Parang pinagtataguan tayo so pinabalik na lang natin ang mga tao na nasa Alabang na”, Sanggalang added.
Although he did not reveal how much money each protester was promised, a local source said they were promised to receive 1,000 pesos each.
“Nasa 250 kami so dapat mayroon 250,000 na nakalaan bukod pa yong bayad sa kada lider.” The source said.
Sanggalang added that this is the worst situation he experienced since joining protests 4 years ago.
Sanggalang, a local farmer from Amadeo, Cavite is said to build his 1.6M-peso house two years ago through organizing rallies. Last year, he also bought a new outrigger worth 560,000 according to sources. Although the group failed to join the State of the Nation rally, Sanggalang is said to have been paid partially last Thursday.
