Privatization of hospitals, electricity, water and other public services. Is it being done by the Philippine government, surely not for the benefit of the people who are suffering  as the result of it, but for whom and why?



The main and direct benificiaries of privatization of public services are the private corporations of the capitalists who dominate the government. They reap giant profits from these services that were formerly run by the government, both local and national. The government has yielded the operations of these public service utilities not to economize on the costs of operations, but because of the dictate of corporate capitalists and because the majority of the government officials were supported financially by, or asre wealthy capitalists. And because the national president himself is protecting the interests of his family who are big landlord and compradors.



As long as the government is possessed by the dynasties of the oligarchs, there will be no change in the exdploitative system  that flagellate the people. The few  wealthy not only remain rich, but will get richer and the poor which is the majority will remain poor and get poorer.



As a clear illustration of the greed of these capitalist private corporation is the increases made by the Water firms of Manila, who included by the their own income tax to the costs being paid by the people. They have made the subscriber pay for the taxes supposed to be paid by the Maynilad and Manila Water that amounts to billions of peso. Such profits they make at the expense of the people!



The privatizations of public service utlilities in the Philippines must stop. The control of these services must be returned to the public! The finance of the private corporations who were authorize3d by the government must be examined for excesses!



DOWN WITH THE PRIVATIZATIONS!!!

CONDEMN THE CORRUPT DEPARTMENTS AND BUREAUS OF THE GOVERNMENT WHO CONDONEDTHE PRIVATIZATIONS!!!


RETURN THE POWER TO THE SOVEREIGN PEOPLE OF THE PHILIPPINES!!!
