Pinoy music icon Freddie Aguilar expressed his sentiments as the third season of the Enhanced community quarantine (ECQ) hits the National Capital Region (NCR).
He suggested a plan for the government officials towards maintaining the economy during the difficult situation now.
He pleaded that the government officials would hear his cry over opening the restaurants, bars, malls, and other recreational establishments, but only for those who are fully vaccinated against COVID19.
In a Facebook post, he shared his sentiments:
“Pakiusap namin sa mga namumuno: dapat buksan na mga rest, bar malls etc. para magtrabaho na mga tao hirap na hirap na at wala ng pambili ng pagkain eh. Pero ang pede lang muna makapasok ay ung mga kompleto na ang bakuna,” Aguilar shared that remaining the economy open would allow people to work and would allow them to provide food on their table.
“Para saan pa at nagpabakuna tayo kung ganito pa rin puro ecq, gcq at PNCQ (Putragis Na Community Quarantine) etc. Pero ipatupad pa rin ang protocol (social distancing, masks etc). Pag ginawa ito tiyak na dadami ang magpapabakuna at maiibsan ang paghihirap ng ating mamamayan. Sana po pakinggan ang aming pakiusap.”
With the implementation of another Enhanced community quarantine (ECQ), the economy and situation of the people are worsening.
Aguilar is a former solid supporter of President Duterte. But now, it looked like he has changed his side in the tone of his pleas toward the government.
Will there be a change of Aguilar’s heart for good?
