Manila, Oct. 22 -- There is nothing wrong with tarpaulins set up in various parts of Metro Manila that condemn the atrocities of the Communist Party of the Philippines-New People's Army (CPP-NPA), Interior Secretary Eduardo Ano said on Thursday.

"I believe that these tarpaulins are expressions or manifestations of citizens or certain groups that they are already fed up with abuses and atrocities perpetrated by the CPP/NPA/NDF (National Democratic Front)," he told the Philippine News Agency.

Ano was referring to tarpaulins and banners declaring the CPP-NPA and its allies as 'persona non grata' in various parts of the National Capital Region.

Ano said it also sends a clear message to the communist terrorists that they are no longer welcome...
