"If the leaders and members of the NPA were driven only by the selfish aim of enriching themselves, they would instead simply join the government and allow themselves to be used by the criminal scalawags posing as politicians, officers of the military and police, judges and big bureacrats," said the CPP.
"Kung ang mga namumuno at kasapi ng BHB ay nabuyo lamang ng makasariling hangad na magpayaman ng sarili, dapat sana ay nagtrabaho na lamang sila sa gubyerno at hayaang gamitin ng mga sukab na kriminal na nag-aanyong mga pulitiko, mga upisyal ng militar at pulisya, mga huwes at malalaking burukrata," anang PKP.
