The People’s March vs Con-Ass Cha-Cha

Kodao Productions presents a short news report of the June 30, 2009 People’s March Against Charter Change. Filipinos showed their outrage against charter change and the Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo regime in a festive and militant march. In a touching display of solidarity, residents and working people poured out the streets of Manila greeting and cheering as the protesters, who came from three different assembly points, passed by. The mobilization converged at the Liwasang Bonifacio and staged a short cultural program.
