Hosted by Ugnayang Pilipino sa Belgium
It was early 90’s when I first saw the couple, Benito Tiamson and Wilma Austria in Sierra Madre. She was then explaning the second great rectification movement in the Philippine revolution.
Two decades later, I was lucky to see them again in Europe as NDFP’s peace consultants.
With the widrawal of president Duterte’s government from the 5th round of peacetalk set in Holland early this month, the prospects of peaceful resolution of the armed conflict in the Philippines faces a rough journey.
Benito and Wilma joined the armed struggle as youths, now they are grand parents, but still vigorously participating in the national democratic movement, becoming a celebrity and ganining respects and adulation from the present generation of Filipino youth activists.
Come and join me, enjoy their company and learn from them in the discussion groups organized by Ugnayang Pilipino sa Belgium (UPB), on Saturday, 24 June 2017 in Brussels, Belgium.
