"While the ruling classes are shielded from the economic crisis, the majority of the people wallow in worsening unemployment, further depression of real wages, rising prices of food, medicine, fuel and other basic commodities, deteriorating health, education and other social services, and environmental degradation," said the CPP.
"Habang ligtas ang naghaharing uri sa krisis sa ekonomya, mayorya ng sambayanang Pilipino ay nasasadlak sa lumalalang kawalang hanapbuhay, ibayong pagbaba ng tunay na sahod, pagtaas ng presyo ng pagkain, gamot, gas, at iba pang saligang produkto, papalalang kalusugan, edukasyon at iba pang serbisyong panlipunan at pangkawasak ng kapaligiran," anang PKP.
