Filipino youth today live in a society ridden with crisis as injustice and impunity only worsen under the Marcos Jr. administration. Human rights abuses continue to multiply, corruption runs rampant, and educational crisis deepens.

Nagprotesta ang iba't ibang student organizations at publications sa Maynila nitong Biyernes, Abril 11, para tutulan ang nakaambang pagtataas ng matrikula sa Adamson University.

Sa darating na pasukan, nagpanukala ng 5% na taas-matrikula ang administrasyon ng unibersidad.

“Kada taon na may tuition fee increase, iniisip namin kung uunahin pa ba ang pag aaral o pagkain ng aming pamilya," pahayag ni Atty. Renee Co, first nominee ng Kabataan Partylist.

Paliwanag ng grupo, isang karapatan ang edukasyon at hindi dapat ginagawang negosyo.

Throughout the years, many journalists have been imprisoned due to exercising their democratic rights and fulfilling their utmost duty as media stewards. Frenchie May Cumpio is in her fifth year in prison following trumped-up cases in February 2020.

LOOK: Students from various schools and universities protest on the National Day of Youth Action to call for the impeachment of Vice President Sara Duterte today, January 27, at Liwasang Bonifacio.

University of the Philippines Student Regent Cheska Duran scrutinized the misuse of public funds under the Department of Education, particularly the P125-million confidential funds under the agency, which was spend in just 11 days when Sara Duterte was the secretary.

"Bawat piso na ginagasta ni Sara Duterte ay pondo na dapat napupunta para sa aming mga classroom, para sa aming dormitory slots, para sa mga serbisyo na dapat natatamasa ng libre at aksesable ng mga kabataan," Duran added.

Meanwhile, the groups also denounced the incompetence of the government in addressing the issues surrounding the education sector, such as militarization, red-tagging, and budget cuts.
