vs Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo, George W. Bush, et. al.

IBON Books and the International Coordinating Secretariat of the Permanent People’s Tribunal (PPT) Second Session on the Philippines published in November 2007 the full verdict and proceedings of the tribunal, which was held in The Hague, The Netherlands on March 21-25, 2007.

Produced in book and CD formats, the comprehensive chronicle entitled “Repression and Resistance: The Filipino People vs Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo, George W. Bush, et.al.” was launched in the Netherlands and the Philippines on November 3 and December 13, respectively.

The Tribunal found the Arroyo regime, the US government and multilateral agencies acting as their accomplices guilty of grave crimes against humanity including gross and systematic violations of human rights, economic plunder and transgression of the Filipino people’s sovereignty.

The book will be promoted in several cities in Europe and in the US, Canada and the Asia-Pacific in order to drum up more support for the campaign to stop rights violations by the Arroyo and Bush governments.
