On the eve of the 32nd anniversary of the EDSA uprising, a protest action is set to be held at the front of the Philippine Consulate in Sydney, against Charter Change, Philippines' President Duterte's scheme to extend his term.


The Movement Against Tyranny (MAT) in Australia, an alliance of groups and individuals that aims to unite all Filipinos and freedom loving people against tyranny and for human rights, will lead the protest.
