the Anti-Terrorism Bill of 2020. Nothing but a
weapon to silence criticism and
dissent toward the government, the proposed Bill
is a threat to the fundamental
constitutional rights of the Filipino people. </span><span

Bill grants
absolute power to the state and its repressive
apparatuses such as the Armed
Forces of the Philippines and the Philippine
National Police to violate the
Philippine Constitution and human rights. It
harbors a vague definition of
terrorism which permits the malicious tagging of
activists, critics, and
organizations as affiliates of so-called
terrorist groups. Furthermore,
the Bill undermines whatever “safeguard” it has
by giving free rein to the
Anti-Terror Council (ATC) to determine what
constitutes “a serious risk to
public safety” and the act to “incite others” to
commit terrorism. This paves
the way for the warrantless arrest of members of
civil society designated as
“terrorist.” This may paralyze the broad
grassroots movements and alternative
practices engaged by communities and civil
society organizations that counter
the state’s aggressive, profit-oriented vision
of development. No one is safe.</span><span

believe that it is
imperative that we put an end to terrorist
activities. Our hearts and
sympathies go out to all of those who have been
victimized by acts of lawless
violence. However, arming the government with
punitive instruments and granting
them a wide latitude of discretion, which the
proposed bill provides, is not
the answer. History will tell how current and
past regimes have exhausted means
to amass political power through anti-people
policies, as exemplified by the
late dictator Ferdinand Marcos who wore the same
“anti-terrorism” veneer to
quell critics and dissenters. Suffice to say,
the “Terror Bill” does not and
will not address the root causes of terrorism
which is poverty and the
corruption of power.</span><span

scholars and

to the passage of this bill,
especially under the current regime which has
not been shy to use violence
against the weak, powerless and the poor. We
believe that addressing terrorism
must not be addressed through punitive and
draconian measures. Quelling
terroristic activities is built through a
comprehensive approach towards
attaining peace, social justice, equity with the
genuine participation of its
people. We do not need to further arm the
coercive apparatuses of the state
which has operated with impunity and has
grotesquely performed its duties with
abuses. In order to end terrorism, what our
society needs are real
opportunities for its people, schools for its
children, protection for peoples
across races, sexes, and genders, an end to
discrimination and violence, and
genuine, open and transformative conversations
in our pursuit of development.</span><span
