Together, let us remember the life of our fellow Iskolar ng Bayan, Vince Francis “Ding” Dingding, and all the lives brutally taken by the AFP-PNP, at 5:00 PM at the UP Cebu Entrance Gate for a candle lighting protest, as we continue to call for justice.

Participants are enjoined to bring candles, flowers, and photos.

HUSTISYA PARA KAY DING!
HUSTISYA PARA SA CAUAYAN 5!

EXPOSE THE FASCIST AFP WAR-MACHINE! CONDUCT A SWIFT, INDEPENDENT, AND IMPARTIAL INVESTIGATION ON THE CAUAYAN 5!

It is truly in the line of fire where honor finds its truest home—in the lives of the martyrs that linger in the breath of every protest chant, in every clenched fist raised by the masses, and in every step taken forward in a struggle that refuses to die.

Vince Francis “Ding” Dingding was an Iskolar ng Bayan, a son, a student-leader, a friend, a writer and a poet, and most especially, a comrade. He dedicated his life to serving the masses.

In his college life, he was a graduate of UP Cebu’s Computer Science Program in 2016. He actively participated in the student movement: serving the students and the youth as being part of the UP Cebu University Student Council (UPC USC) for 3 years: as a 2nd-Year Representative, Councilor, and then the Vice Chairperson. He was also part of mass organizations in Cebu, particularly the Nagkahiusang Kusog sa Estudyante (NKE) and Kabataan Partylist Cebu. Throughout his years as a student leader, he collectively campaigned for accessible, quality, and free education, especially for students who are enrolled in State Universities and Colleges (SUCS). He opposed and rallied against the Socialized Tuition and Financial Assistance Program (STFAP), resisting the K-12 program, and fighting alongside the masses in their campaign against the Pork Barrel System, and the imperialist agenda of the state, such as the Enhanced Defense Cooperation Agreement (EDCA).

But more than that, Ding was remembered by his friends as an older brother and a great mentor—who dedicated himself to the struggle, who was willing to guide students and the youth despite differences in political stances.

In honoring Ding’s life, it is important to confront the material conditions that the farmers in Negros, and all over the country, are facing today: landlessness, extreme poverty, and feudal exploitation. Despite the richness of the island in sugar and agriculture, its wealth is not equally distributed to the farmers who till the land day and night, but rather, it remains concentrated among big landlords and elites.

Rather than addressing the needs of the Filipino people through genuine agrarian reform and social justice, the state has responded with continuous surveillance of communities, red-tagging of community organizers, and militarization. When farmers raise their fists in the struggle—it is never out of hatred, but it is born out of hunger and years of waiting for the land that should have been theirs long ago. And yet, the state too often answers with guns pointed at the very hands that feed the nation.

Tunay na “Ding” Pangkaraniwan

Even in the smallest corridors of UP Cebu to the vast streets of Fuente Osmena leading to the fast-paced Metro Colon, Ding stood beside students actively fighting for a Nationalist, Scientific, and Mass-Oriented Education; landless farmers struggling for genuine agrarian reform, workers asserting dignity and an end to exploitation, and communities against harassment and militarization.

His witty sense of humor gave light and hope to the militant struggle in spite of physically and mentally taxing moments, his humility that brought people together, and his relentless and ceaseless dedication to national democracy that seeks to liberate the Filipino masses from exploitation, landlessness, and corruption will always be remembered.

Yet in these moments meant for mourning, repression once again revealed its face with the recent intimidation and militarization where colleagues, friends, witnesses, and human rights groups were restricted by the military to go inside the funeral home’s premises to pay their last respects to Ding, despite being already allowed by the establishment owner. Because of this, friends and the groups were only able to perform a candlelight vigil outside the funeral home—still marked by heavy state surveillance and monitoring. What should have been a moment of mourning was reduced to a hushed remembrance of a martyr and a comrade whose life has been unjustifiably repurposed by the AFP-PNP-NTF-ELCAC to serve the state’s anti-people campaign, armed with long fi****ms and guns, risking the safety and security of the people in Negros.

Amidst all the state propaganda reducing his death to a mere statistic and his activism to a mere product of brainwashing, we know for certain that his death was never meaningless, nor will it fade into silence—it will continue to live on in every revolutionary youth forged by the struggle: youth who carry laughter amid hardship and exhaustion, an unwavering love for the masses, and a burning conviction to serve the people.

Together, let us remember the life of our fellow Iskolar ng Bayan, Vince Francis “Ding” Dingding, and all the lives brutally taken by the AFP-PNP, at 5:00 PM at the UP Cebu Entrance Gate for a candle lighting protest, as we continue to call for justice.

Participants are enjoined to bring candles, flowers, and photos.

WATCH: Athena Romulo of Nagkahiusang Kusog sa Estudyante (NKE) speaks on the situation in Cauayan, where friends and colleagues of Vince “Ding” Dingding were prevented from entering the funeral home to pay their final respects amid the presence of armed AFP and PNP personnel.

She raises concerns over the heavy militarization of the area, including surveillance and intimidation faced by mourners who travelled from Cebu to grieve and offer their respects.

NKE vehemently condemns the militarization of mourning and the harassment of grieving individuals, and calls for respect for the dignity of the dead and the right of communities to mourn without fear or interference.

MABUHI KA DING!
MABUHI ANG CAUAYAN 5!
HUSTISYA SA TANANG BIKTIMA SA PASISTANG ESTADO!

20/05/2026

Nagkahiusang Kusog sa Estudyante (NKE) strongly condemns the AFP, PNP, and NTF-ELCAC for turning the death of Vince Francis “Ding” Dingding and the Cauayan 5 into yet another spectacle of militarization, intimidation, and propaganda.

What should have been a solemn moment of grief and remembrance was instead transformed into an extension of the state’s counterinsurgency campaign. Friends, colleagues, paralegals, and community members travelled all the way from Cebu to Cauayan, Negros Occidental after learning that Ding’s remains would no longer be brought home. They came carrying flowers, candles, and prayers, simply to pay their final respects to a friend, colleague, and fellow human being.

Yet even this basic act of mourning was denied.

Despite prior agreement from the funeral home owner allowing Ding’s companions to enter, mourners were met with locked gates and a heavy presence of armed AFP and PNP personnel surrounding not only the entrance but the entire vicinity. The funeral home was effectively placed under military watch, with armed state forces positioned as though grieving civilians were threats to be contained.

Peaceful mourners who travelled for hours to light candles, offer flowers, pray, and say goodbye were blocked, monitored, photographed, and intimidated. Visitors were reportedly subjected to surveillance, with AFP-PNP personnel openly taking photos and videos of those present.

No grieving person should ever be treated as a threat for mourning the dead. No funeral home should become a militarized zone. No act of remembrance should be subjected to surveillance and harassment.

What makes these actions even more disturbing is the attempt of the AFP-PNP-NTF-ELCAC to reclaim Ding’s death for propaganda—portraying themselves as “saviors” while selectively releasing private communications and reshaping narratives to demonize activism and resistance. Ding was never theirs to claim.

Since May 16, the NTF-ELCAC has continued to push this narrative, selectively using family communications and state framing to reduce Ding into a cautionary tale meant to instill fear among students and activists, particularly those from UP Cebu and other institutions of dissent.

This exposes their real objective: not to understand or honor the dead, but to weaponize grief in order to vilify activism and suppress movements that challenge state repression, corruption, and exploitation.

Yet while the NTF-ELCAC accuses revolutionary movements of “breaking families apart,” it is the AFP-PNP-NTF-ELCAC machinery itself that has repeatedly torn families and communities apart through militarization, killings, harassment, red-tagging, and violations of human rights and international humanitarian law.

The state also remains silent on the realities surrounding the other Cauayan 5.

Accounts regarding Alex Languita note that he reportedly witnessed the killing of his father, a peasant activist killed during the Oplan Sauron massacres in Negros in 2018—an experience that shaped his path toward armed resistance. Another casualty, Jobert Casipong, was said to have attempted to return to civilian life but endured relentless harassment and death threats from military and intelligence agents before returning underground. These accounts reflect how state violence itself becomes a driver of resistance and radicalization.

History repeatedly shows that crisis generates resistance. It is not ordinary people who create conditions of poverty, landlessness, exploitation, and militarization, but a ruling system that sustains inequality through repressive state forces such as the AFP, PNP, and NTF-ELCAC.

Serious concerns also remain regarding the handling of Ding’s remains.

Karapatan Central Visayas reported that AFP personnel instructed funeral staff in the preparation and containment of Ding’s body, with unclear circumstances surrounding its transfer. It was further reported that the cadaver had already been placed inside a crate under military instruction, with staff allegedly unaware of where the remains would ultimately be taken.

Questions also persist regarding a handwritten letter from Ding’s parents later publicized by the NTF-ELCAC. Reports state that non-uniformed AFP Visayas Command personnel visited the family home on May 18, and that the letter was written in their presence—raising serious concerns about consent, pressure, and the atmosphere of intimidation surrounding the family’s decisions.

Instead of transparency, compassion, and accountability, authorities have responded with secrecy, militarization, surveillance, and propaganda—extending state control even into spaces of grief.

The events in Cauayan expose how far the state will go to control not only the lives of dissenters, but even their deaths and mourning. Funeral spaces become sites of intimidation. Grieving communities are treated as security risks. Human beings are reduced into material for counterinsurgency narratives.

This is not public service. This is psychological warfare against grieving families and communities.

We strongly condemn the AFP, PNP, and NTF-ELCAC for the harassment, surveillance, intimidation, and obstruction inflicted upon mourners in Cauayan. We condemn the politicization of Ding’s death and the exploitation of a bereaved family for propaganda. We condemn the militarization of mourning and the continued attacks against activists and communities resisting repression and injustice.

We call for an independent investigation into the killing of the Cauayan 5. We demand accountability for military abuses and human rights violations in Negros, transparency regarding the handling of Ding’s remains, and an immediate end to harassment of grieving civilians. We also call for an end to red-tagging, militarization, and state repression across the country.

Ding was more than the caricature produced by state propaganda. He was a son, friend, colleague, activist, and community member whose life and death deserve dignity and truth. The Cauayan 5 deserve remembrance not as trophies of counterinsurgency, but as human beings shaped by exploitation, injustice, and struggle.

No amount of propaganda or armed presence can erase collective grief and solidarity.

MABUHI KA DING!
MABUHI ANG CAUAYAN 5!

Nagkahiusang Kusog sa Estudyante (NKE) vehemently condemns NTF-ELCAC’s recent releases that entail shameful exploitation of Ding’s death and his bereaved family to reinforce their campaign in demonizing activists and revolutionaries.

Since Ding’s death at the hands of state forces on May 16th, the NTF-ELCAC has made it its primary duty to propagandize their own narrative and claims. By releasing internal and private communications between civilian offices and the bereaved family of Ding and twisting its narrative and context to affix their own interest, they have made it clear that their intention is to exploit the death of a revolutionary to demonize activists and the movement itself. The NTF-ELCAC themselves have shown where their intention lies as they are silent regarding the other 4 red fighters that were killed alongside Ding. Their releases show their intent to capitalize on Ding’s identity as a former student-leader and activist to sow fear, intimidation, and demonization towards activists that continue to oppose their mercenary ways.

While they claim that the CPP-NPA-NDF breaks families apart, it must be known that it is the state forces themselves — they who continue to barbarically murder and harass activists, defy international humanitarian laws, and serve the elites who have done nothing but exploit our country and the people — who are the true breakers of families. Tearing down humble peasant communities, killing and harassing activists who are mothers, fathers, sons, and daughters and community members who have done nothing but expose and oppose the status quo of our semi-colonial and semi-feudal society that continues to tear even more families apart.

History has shown time and time again that crises will lead to resistance. It is the material conditions of the masses that ignite the flame of militance within them to ultimately take up higher forms of struggle to liberate not just themselves or their families, but the entire nation. Our material conditions are not dictated by the masses. This is dictated by the 1% that continues to maintain and assert their political and economic power through their repressive state apparatuses such as the AFP-PNP-NTF-ELCAC. It is the US-Marcos administration that continues to assert this superstructure and exploitation, so it is them who pushes the masses to take up arms and revolt against hunger, landlessness, poverty, and corruption.

While the private letter between a civilian office and the bereaved family released shamelessly by the NTF-ELCAC to propagate their ideals may be cited as an example of how the movement breaks families, it must be known that even the family’s hesitance is an outcome of the circumstance that is dictated by state forces through their continued surveillance, harassment, and intimidation. Just this May 18th, two days after Ding’s death, his family was visited by a non-uniformed personnel by the AFP Visayas Command causing immense fear to the family before they ultimately decided to withdraw their supposed plan to claim Ding’s remains. The said letter was written in the presence of the military in their home.

Moreover, it is more alarming that friends and former colleagues of Ding who went to Negros to pay respects and deliver his body to his final resting place reported that the cadaver was put into a crate. According to them, the funeral parlor said that they have been instructed by the Philippine Army to do so, and that parlor had no idea as to where his remains will be taken.

As new developments of the truth behind Ding’s and the Negros 5’s death continue to surface, our calls remain unresolved and resolute. We call for an impartial and independent investigation of the Killing of the Cauayan 5! We must hold the AFP accountable for military abuses and human rights violations in Negros! Amplify our call to end militarization and state repression! We must uphold our call for justice for all victims of counterinsurgency violence!

BATUKAN ANG PAMASISMO SA ESTADO!

In the face of intensifying state repression, fascist attacks, and the continued culture of impunity, we gather to study, struggle, and organize.

This educational festival stands as a collective response to the people’s call for the ouster of Marcos and Duterte regime and the arrest of Bato dela Rosa, while exposing the fascist machinery of the state and its long history of brutality against the masses. We remember and honor the martyrdom of Ding and the Cauayan 5, alongside the Toboso 19, who were victims of a system that thrives on terror, militarization, and persecution.

Let us advance the revolutionary spirit in our times, building collective strength, deepening political consciousness, and uniting the masses against oppression. Through organized struggle and education, we move to challenge and dismantle all systems of fascist repression. Join us as we deepen our understanding of fascism, state violence, and revolutionary resistance!

TINUOD KANG DING PANGKARANIWAN!

The countryside of Negros has long been forced to carry two burdens at once. One is the endless weight of exploitation where peasants remain trapped in poverty despite generations spent cultivating the land. The other is the constant presence of militarization imposed upon communities whenever the people begin asserting their rights and organizing for meaningful change. In this environment, violence does not emerge accidentally. It becomes part of the ordinary machinery used to preserve a deeply unequal social order. The killing of Vince Francis “Ding” Dingding and the rest of the Cauayan 5 belongs to this wider reality.

On May 16, Jobert Casipong, Gilbert Tingson, Rolando Dantes, Alex Chavez Languita, and Vince Francis “Ding” Dingding were killed in supposed encounters with troops from the 15th Infantry Battalion under the 302nd Infantry Brigade in the hinterland areas of Barangays Abaca and Poblacion. Their deaths now join the growing list of massacres and military operations across Negros where the AFP repeatedly presents violence against communities and revolutionaries as necessary acts of “peacekeeping” while deeper social conditions remain deliberately unresolved.

There is something profoundly revealing in how the state repeatedly responds to people who dedicate themselves to collective struggle. Organizers are vilified. Communities are placed under military control. Democratic dissent is absorbed into the language of counterterrorism. Entire rural populations are taught to live under the permanent threat of surveillance, armed operations, and displacement while the AFP presents these conditions as necessary for “peace.” Yet the deeper crisis remains untouched because the roots of unrest were never military in nature to begin with.

Negros continues to produce enormous wealth from sugar while the people responsible for producing it remain among the poorest in the country. Farmers continue to survive through unstable work, low wages, and landlessness while political dynasties and landlords maintain control over vast agricultural estates. Whenever demands for land reform, workers’ rights, or democratic participation begin to intensify, the state answers not with structural change but with battalions, checkpoints, and counterinsurgency campaigns. This is the political atmosphere that shaped Ding’s generation.

Vince Francis “Ding” Dingding graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science from UP Cebu in 2016. During his years in the university, Ding dedicated much of his time and energy to student leadership and advocacy, serving the UP Cebu Student Council as 2nd Year Representative from 2013 to 2014, Councilor from 2014 to 2015, and eventually as Vice Chairperson from 2015 to 2016—where he ran under NKE and was a member of NKE throughout his student leadership journey. Throughout his years of service, he consistently fought for accessible, quality, and genuinely free education, especially for students in State Universities and Colleges. He helped lead campaigns against the Socialized Tuition and Financial Assistance Program and the Socialized Tuition System, opposed the implementation of the K to 12 program, and actively supported initiatives advancing student rights and welfare. Beyond campus concerns, he also participated in broader national movements including the Anti-Pork Barrel Movement and the campaign to junk the Enhanced Defense Cooperation Agreement or EDCA.

For many youth activists emerging from universities and mass organizations, activism was never detached from the worsening realities outside the campus. The struggle for education naturally connected itself to the struggles of workers facing exploitation and peasants confronting militarization in the countryside. Ding represented this continuity between student activism and broader mass movements because he understood that social problems do not exist separately from one another. The same structures producing inaccessible education also reproduce poverty, state violence, and exploitation among the broader masses.

The deployment of the AFP into rural communities functions not only as military strategy but as a political warning directed against anyone who attempts to challenge existing relations of land, power, and wealth. Every fascist operation seeks to discipline the masses into submission while portraying collective resistance as criminality. Yet history in Negros has consistently shown that repression only deepens political consciousness among the people.

Every massacre exposes the violence required to preserve the current system. Every fabricated encounter reveals the desperation of a state unable to solve the conditions producing unrest. Every martyr strengthens the collective memory carried by communities who continue to witness militarization unfolding within their daily lives. Ding’s martyrdom now becomes part of this historical memory.

And indeed, Ding was never ordinary. He carried himself with humility and simplicity, yet his contributions to the masses reached far beyond what many could ever hope to achieve in a lifetime. He stood beside students fighting for accessible education, workers demanding dignity, and communities resisting exploitation and fascist violence. He gave his life to the people without asking for recognition in return. Even in the smallest spaces, among classrooms, discussions, campaigns, and communities, he helped shape a generation that learned to struggle collectively instead of surrendering to silence.

And he will be remembered not through the lies manufactured by the fascist state but through the life he genuinely lived among the masses. He will be remembered for his unwavering commitment to the people, his humility despite his immense contributions, and his courage to continue struggling in a society that punishes those who choose solidarity over silence. He will be remembered for dedicating his years to students, workers, and oppressed communities without seeking recognition or reward for himself.

His death now weighs heavier than mountains because it carries the grief and rage of all those who know what was taken from the people. Yet even in martyrdom, his memory continues to strengthen the collective spirit of resistance among the masses. The state may attempt to erase his humanity and reduce him into another military narrative, but his life has already left a mark too deep to be buried by propaganda, fear, or repression.

And as long as exploitation, fascism, and injustice persist, his memory will continue to live in every struggle for genuine national democracy.
