He also asked NDFP leaders to explain why the attack happened despite the truce offered by the government. Mr. Duterte warned leaders of the National Democratic Front of the Philippines (NDFP) that he would revoke the ceasefire order with the NPA if the rebels would not stop attacking government forces. Are we into this truce or are we not?” Mr. Duterte said, addressing communist leaders. LUCENA CITY, Quezon — Communist Party of the Philippines (CPP) founder Jose Maria Sison on Friday asked President Duterte for more time to investigate the attack staged by New People’s Army (NPA) rebels in Davao del Norte province that left a government militiaman dead and four others wounded. The New People’s Army is the armed wing of the Communist Party of the Philippines.
