Tayo ba ay ganap ng malaya?

Hindi po lahat ng OFW ay pinalad dito sa ibang bansa.

Nakakalungkot isipin at pinagmalupitan sila ng tadhana.

Mga kaawa-awang mga kababayan na pinagtabuyan ng mga pulis sa kanilang make-shift shelter- sa ilalim ng tulay ng khandarah at tanging bandila ng pilipinas ay syang nagsilbing pag-asa na sila ay makakalaya na sa kanilang kalagayan.  For those fortunate ones – count your blessings!

Roma – Mayo 24, 2012 – Mula sa Miss Italia World sa Miss World Italia. Maaari itong ipaliwanag ng ganito sa madaling salita, na inihayag ni Patrizia Mirigliani sa website ng pinaka-hihintay na beauty contest ng buong bansa.

“Minamahal kong mga kaibigang imigrante na naninirahan sa Italya, ngayong taon ay may partesipasyon din kayo”, ang sinulat na may halong paternalism ng organizer ng pagtatanghal.
