The protesters called on Tuesday here for the immediate termination of the Visiting Forces Agreement (VFA) and the suspension of the Philippines-US joint military exercises. The VFA, effective since May 27, 1999, is seen by some critics as granting immunity from prosecution to U.S. military personnel who commit crimes against Filipinos. [Luis Liwanag/Xinhua] |
