In the seventh year of the establishment of the National Task Force to End Local Communist Armed Conflict (NTF-ELCAC). human rights advocates and various sectors will hold a protest on December 4, calling for the
abolition of what they called the "State terror machine," and said that government funds should be reallocated to social services instead of militarization and repression. 

The action also highlights growing concern over heightened militarization in communities under the Marcos Jr. administration. The protest will echo the calls:

• Abolish NTF-ELCAC!
• Pondo sa serbisyo, hindi sa pasismo!
