The Philippine Department of National Defense has sent a letter to UP President Danilo Concepcion notifying that the DND-UP Agreement executed on June 30, 1989 has been terminated effective last January 15, 2021.
This is a clear maneuver to discredit not just Chairperson Bongon and the UPLB SCs but the whole UP community's RIGHT and JUST call to defend academic freedom against state forces.
The UPLB USC would like to reecho the points raised by Chair Bongon,
