“Blocking the implementation of the national identification system is in the agenda of the National Democratic Front of the Philippines (NDFP) under the proposed Comprehensive Agreement on Social and Economic Reforms (CASER).”
What Vera Files found
Nowhere in the 180-page draft of CASER in 2018 is any motion or proposal to oppose the implementation of the national ID system included. The only security concerns NDFP proposed in CASER were reforms focused on job security, environmental protection, and the country’s disaster readiness. Also, no such contention was included in the agreed outcomes for CASER between the national government and the NDFP during their second round of formal talks in 2016.
