Goodmorning Darkness

It's 6.02 am and the sun is not yet out. I woke up at 5 w/c is about 8 or 9 pm back in Pinas. I'm not over my jetlag yet and will surely sleep on the road to wherever we're booked for the day. Agggh!

Let's go back to reality for a moment. A volunteer in DSWD's rescue effort for Ondoy and Pepeng's victims has posted photos of her experience and of what she saw and it's maddening. I hope one day Gloria will pay for this. It's not enough that she won't be able to run for the presidency next year. She should pay. (By talking Gloria, I mean THAT Gloria and her cohorts.)

Dear friends,

I’m asking your help to spread the word. Tulungan po ninyo akong ikalat ito. Beyond this, we should also demand action. I disabled a plugin so you can copy the photos of relief goods rotting in DSWD warehouses. You can link this post to your blogs, facebook, websites etc. You can also email the photos.

Philippine News (US based Philippine newspaper) will use this as its front page story this week. Every Filipino has the right to know where the tons of donations from the UN and other counties go. Kahit po nakakahiya sa mga nag-donate. Kung sa ganitong paraan, matutulungan natin ang mga nasalanta, then by all means, let’s do it.

For those who have the time, please try to volunteer sa DSWD warehouses. Getting in was not easy. A friend had to put in a word for us. Let’s see kung madali nang makapasok sa DSWD warehouse ang mga volunteers.

Please read on and good luck to us.
