THE MILITARY has intensified its operations against the New People’s Army (NPA) in Compostela Valley (ComVal) province following last week’s attack on two trucks of Sumifru (Philippines) Corp. First Lieutenant Daren C. Gapay, 66th Infantry Battalion civil-military operations officer, reported that NPA members flagged down the trucks loaded with Cavendish bananas along the Ngan Road in Barangay Tamia in the town of Compostela, and when the vehicles did not stop, they were fired upon. The military report said a mother and her five-year old son were wounded in the incident. The non-government group Center for Trade Union and Human Rights (CTUHR) has earlier reported on alleged labor rights violations by Sumifru. — Carmelito Q. Francisco
