collective in philippines

Asian governments have been keeping themselves quite busy with hackers’ activities this week. While Singapore is dealing with an individual (or group of individuals) called “The Messiah” who claims to represent the Anonymous collective, the Philippine government is now dealing with similar intrusions by a group claiming to be be part of the same group.
We received word today that a total of seven Filipino government sites have been hacked by Anonymous collective. Just like what happened in Singapore, the group posted a video and a message on the hacked websites explaining the reasons behind this attack. The video essentially says that the government hasn’t been at their best in providing what the people wish for. The message says:

The government, in many ways, has failed its Filipino citizens. We have been deprived of things which they have promised to give; what our late heroes have promised us to give. Let us remind the government that fairness, justice and freedom are more than words. They are perspectives.

The group also said that there will be a “movement” happening on November 5th called the “million mask march” and that this group of Anonymous collective “will try to be a part of the history” (sic). The YouTube video link directs people to access three sites: a Facebook event page, million mask march site, and Anonymous Philippines’ site.
Million mask march itself asks people to gather in locations all over the world in an expression of solidarity against oppression and despotism.
Those who are familiar with the Singapore incident might also be familiar about that date: it is the same date where “The Messiah” asks Singaporean citizens to start a public protest by dressing in black and red as well as blacking out their Facebook profile pictures.
