We have always been transparent about our bias for the majority of Filipinos who are persistently marginalized and about our opposition to unjust and inequitable economic structures. We have likewise always been open about our belief in the capacity of people to change society and in the importance of organized movements to bring about a better future for all.<\/p>\n<p>We see the attacks on IBON as part of a larger campaign by government and military officials to project a false image of the country. It seems that \u2018truth\u2019 for the Duterte administration is not what is true but only what makes it look good. The Duterte administration cannot handle the truth and goes to great lengths to insist on its narrative.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7772\" src=\"http:\/\/ibon.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Ch-Infog-2019-0402-IBON-ProfileA-Whole.png\" alt=\"Ch Infog 2019 0402 IBON ProfileA Whole\" width=\"3000\" height=\"2988\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ibon.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Ch-Infog-2019-0402-IBON-ProfileA-Whole.png 3000w, https:\/\/www.ibon.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Ch-Infog-2019-0402-IBON-ProfileA-Whole-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.ibon.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Ch-Infog-2019-0402-IBON-ProfileA-Whole-100x100.png 100w, https:\/\/www.ibon.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Ch-Infog-2019-0402-IBON-ProfileA-Whole-600x598.png 600w, https:\/\/www.ibon.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Ch-Infog-2019-0402-IBON-ProfileA-Whole-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/www.ibon.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Ch-Infog-2019-0402-IBON-ProfileA-Whole-768x765.png 768w, https:\/\/www.ibon.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Ch-Infog-2019-0402-IBON-ProfileA-Whole-1024x1020.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.ibon.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Ch-Infog-2019-0402-IBON-ProfileA-Whole-135x135.png 135w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 3000px) 100vw, 3000px\" \/><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For over forty years, IBON has sought to explain socioeconomic and political issues to the public as our contribution to Philippine democracy and the cause of genuine progress and development.
