Gloomy Monday

Yesterday, the Philippines has once again got the attention of the world. I was truly sadden as I've seen the images of the tragedy happened last night. I know everyone does. I almost cried when I see this woman crying in despair, and the police trying to gain her trust and escort her to the emergency exit of the bus. It really broke my heart. I do not understand why such thing has to happen. All I know is, everyone of us wanted these hostages to be freed safely.

For our Chinese friends, we shared your bereavement. The sorrow that you are feeling right now is the same sorrow we Filipinos are also going through for what had happened. We are sorry. We never wanted anything like this to happen.

Our deepest condolences to our Chinese friends.

Let's continue to pray for the soul of those who lost their lives in the tragedy, for the comfort of the departed, for the healing of the casualties, for justice and for the restoration of world trust, especially the damaged friendship of the two nations.
