Day XX of Quarantine, Death of Democracy and Loss for Words

If you’re from the Philippines or a Filipino — you are probably aware that the House of Representatives voted to deny the renewal of ABS CBN’s franchise — only the biggest media company in the Philippines. I have no words, I think most of my anger has been spewed off in person as it has been happening on Friday night. It’s been exhausting, weakening and downright anger triggering.

I never used to care this much about politics (like every other Filipino, highly likely). But this heart breaks for those 11,000 employees who doesn’t have a job anymore and those derivative industries leaning on ABS CBN.

What a very sad day.
