Bayan Muna was established in 1999 to fill the need for a genuine alternative political party in the Philippine parliamentary arena. Our aim is to push the people's agenda for basic reforms based on the politics of people empowerment and social change. Our method is through the "Politics of Change" that ensures the people's representation and participation in all levels of governance, veering away from the traditional system of personalities and patronage that have dominated Philippine politics for decades.

The NDFP serves as framework for establishing revolutionary organs of governance at the municipal, district, provincial and regional levels. The national entirety of these organs of political power comprises the people's democratic government (PDG), albeit in rudimentary form. It administers justice and exercises such state prerogatives as taxation. It implements environmental and other policies in line with the people's nationalist and democratic aspirations. Under the Party's absolute leadership, the NPA serves as the PDG's armed force. It defends the PDG, helps strengthen and expand its authority and enforces its policies. It engages in civil war against the ruling Government of the Republic of the Philippines (GRP) which represent the ruling classes of big bourgeois compradors and big landlords under US imperialist hegemony. The NDFP represents the PDG until it can be formally established. As such, the NDFP has established proto-diplomatic relations with states and other international agencies. It has also represented the PDG in peace negotiations with the GRP since 1986. For more than 25 years, this has been governed by the terms set by The Hague Joint Declaration signed in 1992. The NDFP jointly signed with the GRP the Comprehensive Agreement on Respect for Human Rights and International Humanitarian Law (CARHRIHL) in 1998.
