The Communist Party of the Philippines (CPP) urged the Filipino people to push for the repeal of the US-RP Mutual Defense Treaty of 1951 and the pullout of all American military troops in the Philippines in order to ease military and diplomatic tensions over the Scarborough Shoal and Spratly Islands and pave the way for the peaceful resolution of the conflict and build mutually beneficial relations with both China and the US.
Mahigpit na nakikiisa ang Partido Komunista ng Pilipinas (PKP) sa uring manggagawang Pilipino sa pagdiriwang ng Pandaigdigang Araw ng Paggawa.
