Kaban ni D_BystandeR: KAWSA SA MGA MAMUMUO SA GAWAS SA NASOD ANGAYANG BULIGAN!!!
I always appreciate the kind of logic
that this columnist Jerry Tundag is using but this time his tirade against the
OFW's plight to make it look like his chopping block of the "palpaks"
committed by the government is unacceptable.
It is as if Tundag is equating the life of an OFW is on a trail with beds of
roses in the wayside without considering the possible death traps that lie on
its path as some of them happen to work in hostile environments and cruel employers that
unlucky OFWs come home inside wooden
coffins. And Tundag just seems to take for granted the personal concerns and
misgivings of the OFWs about the government's (BOC) imposing additional
restrictions over balikbayan boxes that Bert Lina of BOC (Bureau of Customs)
wants to give immeasurable headaches to OFWs by making it hard for them to send
something for their loved ones through the only means - balikbayan boxes. Good
that the hard-headed Bert Lina finally softened his stand against balikbayan
boxes through the relentless pounding of the irate lawmakers to defend the
rights of the OFWs.
