Hidilyn Diaz won the gold medal despite being red-tagged, targeted and lack of funding. Margielyn Didal got into the top 10 (7th) of the olympic skateboarding event in a country without skate parks or open spaces to practice in a country where skaters are seen as a nuisance.

People may not understand the gravity of this. A passport may take 2 weeks - 1 month to get fixed. That passport is also connected to multiple papers for foreign workers beyond just the visa. The OEC (overseas employment certificate) can take months to get. Fuck this.

So if it hasn’t dawned on people yet and if people are still trying to defend it. The transportation system in the Philippines is so broken that people have been literally dehumanizing themselves by using transportify and lalamove and basically getting transported as human cargo

Add to this the Monetary cost: An OEC can cost up to a hundred USD. The process to even get to that point is extreme, there's also the insurance that people have to pay which depending on the contract will cost more than a 100usd. Yung linakad, trinabaho ng lang buwan nawala
