Lakas ng Bayan ((英語:People's Power)) was a political party in the Philippines formed by Senator Benigno "Ninoy" Aquino, Jr. for the 1978 Interim Batasang Pambansa regional elections. The party had 21 candidates for the Metro Manila area, all of whom lost due to widespread election fraud. The party's acronym, "LABAN", is a Filipino word meaning "fight". After Aquino's exile to the United States, the party was managed by the brother of Aquino's wife, Jose "Peping" Cojuangco, Jr. By 1984, the party had formed a coalition with the Partido Demokratiko Pilipino of Aquilino Pimentel, Jr., himself a LABAN party member. By 1986, the two parties were completely merged to form the Partido Demokratiko Pilipino-Lakas ng Bayan party or PDP-LABAN The name "Lakas ng Bayan" would eventually be reused in the 1987 Philippine legislative elections, as the name of a coalition led by the United Nationalist Democratic Organization party of President Corazon C. Aquino and Vice President Salvador H. Laurel. ==Noise barrage== On April 6, 1978, supporters of the party came out in protest by asking bystanders and cars to make noise in support the opposition. However, on April 7, 1978, the first national election under martial law held for the 165- members to the Interim Batasang Pambansa resulted in the massive victory of the administration coalition party, the “Kilusang Bagong Lipunan ng Nagkakaisang Nacionalista, Liberal, at iba pa” or KBL. Only 15 opposition candidates in other parts of the country won. None of the members of LABAN were elected. The opposition denounced the massive vote buying and cheating in that elections. On June 12, 1978, the Interim Batasang Pambansa was convened with Marcos as President-Prime Minister and Querube Makalintal as Speaker. Some of the Opposition members ended up in exile or were driven underground fighting against the Marcos dictatorship. Alex Boncayao became a member of the Communist Party of the Philippines and the New People's Army, whose after his death a group carrying his name (the Alex Boncayao Brigade) became one of the groups trying to destabilize using urban guerrilla warfare against the Marcos and the Aquino regimes. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lakas ng Bayan」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
