1997 MIM Statement to the Communist Party of the PhilippinesA
Maoist Internationalist Movement (MIM) statement in celebration of the 28th anniversary of the Communist Party of the Philippines (CPP)'s reestablishment
26 December, 1997The Maoist Internationalist Movement (MIM) sends warm and enthusiastic greetings to the Communist Party of the Philippines (CPP) on this, the 29th anniversary of its re-establishment on the theoretical basis of Marxism-Leninism-Maoism. MIM is especially happy to congratulate the CPP on the continued successes of the rectification campaign it launched in 1992. The rectification campaign - which emphasizes the study of Marx, Engels, Lenin, Stalin, and especially Mao - was able to defeat the modern revisionists, petty-bourgeois adventurists, hidden Trotskyists, and other charlatans who sought to subvert the CPP's work from within. The rectification campaign helped the revolutionary movement regain ground lost under the influence of incorrect ideas and thus demonstrates the continued relevance of Marxism-Leninism-Maoism as a tool for liberating the oppressed.
The victories won by the revolutionary movement led by the CPP aid the struggles of the oppressed within u.$. borders and around the world, because these victories are a blow against our common enemy: Amerikan imperialism. MIM takes this occasion to reiterate its commitment to helping the revolutionary movement in the Philippines the best way it can: By hastening the day when the oppressed masses in North America overthrow Amerikan imperialism.
Victory to the Filipino people's war! Long live the Communist Party of the Philippines! Long live Marxism-Leninism-Maoism!
