The CPP/NPA/NDF is losing not just in tactical battles, but in relevance as well. With the remaining 24 guerilla fronts, 19 of which are weakened and inactive, this leaves the Communist Party with five (5) fronts to pursue its violent means of achieving political objectives. With the relentless efforts of the government security forces to subdue insurgency, the CPP found its lower politico-military organs on the run, therefore incapable of implementing party programs, the lifeblood of its existence.
As the AFP calls for the remaining NPA members to return to the folds of the law, it also commits itself to sustain the offensive against lawless violence. With no mass bases to hide them, in no time the NPA will be destroyed by the combined strength of the government security forces. The CPP should accept that the battle is lost, that its programs need not be imposed with violence, and that it has the moral responsibility of saving its fighters from death and destruction.
Finally, we call on all the Filipino people to help us convey the message of unity and peace. Let the hatchet of hate be buried for our nation to move forward as one.///
