As chief international representative, Louie Jalandoni has presented the achievements of the National Democratic Front of the Philippines. My assignment is to discuss the united front policy in general terms. The Filipino people's democratic revolution constantly needs the revolutionary united front because this is the effective way to arouse, organize and mobilize the broad masses of the Filipino people in their millions in order to advance and win total victory. The need for the united front is more urgent than ever as the socio-economic and political crisis is rapidly worsening and inflicting intolerable suffering on the Filipino people and they must intensify their struggle against those who exploit and oppress them.
Dapat ibilang sa sosyalistang katangian ng demokratikong sistemang estado ng bayan ang pamumuno ng uring manggagawa at ng Partido Komunista ng Pilipinas, ang hukbong bayan bilang pangunahing bahagi ng estado poder, ang nasyunalisasyon ng malaking bahagi ng ekonomya, ang planadong pagsulong ng ekonomya sa landas ng sosyalistang rebolusyon at ang kooperasyon at mekanisasyon ng agrikultura, ang hegemonya ng isang pambansa, syentipiko at pangmasang kultura at ang isang nagsasariling patakarang panlabas ng internasyunal na pakikipagkaisa, kapayapaan at kaunlaran.
