On pigs and ebola....

Last night I was watching news regarding the massive depopulation of pigs in Bulacan. Per statistics, 6,000 of them will be stungunned and then burned. Syempre where there are animals involved, the presence of animal rights groups particularly PAWS and PETA is expected to ensure that these creatures are humanely 'killed'... what they're asking for is a quick death so as not to stress the animals.

On one of the interviews, it was mentioned that owners of the pig farms refrained from feeding the pigs since last week tuesday... also, she was hearing a different kind of 'ugong' -- because the pigs were hungry. When the owners were requested to feed the pigs, parang lalo daw silang nagwala kasi alam na nilang papakainin sila. I myself have been to pig farms ... and true to her word, I've seen pigs really shout when they sense that they're going to be fed. Going back.... She also mentioned that witnessing this event is a horrifying one and she'll never forget it for as long as she lives... the sound of screaming pigs... the sight of seeing the live pigs sniffing their dead brothers and sisters... Nakakaawa, nakakalungkot...

*sigh*

Hindi ko pinangarap magkaroon ng farm na may manok, baboy at baka... pwede actually... aalagaan but not to be killed for meal purposes. Which makes me think, okay... chickens -- they could lay eggs... cows -- they give us milk.... but pigs? what about them?

*sigh*

Sorry for being sentimental at the moment. I just feel bad for the situation.

Alam ko...

I don't really deserve it and it would make me feel better siguro if somebody else will have it.

I've seen the contenders and I would gladly give them the opportunity.... wholeheartedly.... Some people would call me stupid.... na I will only realize its importance later.... pero to be honest, okay na ko sa ganito...

Kung ibigay, thank you... kung hindi, thank you thank you.... I think it's better this way... pero isa lang ang hiling ko... (please God....) yung lang... alam mo na yun....

Naga as promised....

Before I leave towards my next assignment, allow me to fulfill my promise on the pics I took while in Naga. It was a brief trip so pardon me on the quantity and the variety of the subjects.

We arrived there on a Sunday... so we heard mass at the famous Our Lady of Penafrancia Basilica...













They have this famous food chain called BIGGS DINER... It's like the Jollibee/Mcdo of Naga. One article said that they attempted to introduce themselves to Manila. The location is good... a busy road... lots of people walking in the vicinity... but what went wrong? According to the manager, the appearance of the restaurant made an impression that it's expensive so they had no choice but to fold... but they're willing to give it another shot sometime in the future.







One week lang e... and with all the work we had to do, we didn't have time to go around... much more, take pictures.... Next time na lang .....
