Don't use force against Kadamay – lawmakers

Alliance of Concerned Teachers partylist Rep. Antonio Tinio on Wednesday said the “Makabayan block” is urging President Rodrigo Duterte and the National Housing Authority (NHA) to recall the eviction notices served last Monday on “invaders” in several resettlement sites in Pandi, Bulacan.

At the same time, the group asked the government not to use military force to evict members of the Kalipunan ng Damayang Mahihirap (Kadamay) who have taken possession of the housing units since March 8. The NHA has given the “invaders” seven days to vacate from the date the notices were posted – March 20 – on the doors of the units.
