“The tipping point can come time anytime between now and let’s say middle of next year, probably. That’s a good allowance of exerting efforts in order to oust Duterte,” Sison said in an interview over ABS-CBN News Channel on Wednesday morning.

President Duterte is simply “lying and bluffing” when he claimed that the Communist Party of the Philippines is conniving with the Magdalo group, said CPP founding chairman Jose Maria Sison
