fritzified.com’s Blog Action Day post takes off from a news item on a fire that hit one of the many slum areas in Metro Manila:
A huge fire engulfed the homes of hundreds of families in that area beside the Loyola Memorial Chapels, a little past 2AM on July 5, 2008. We were driving down the opposite EDSA lane and headed for Boni when we saw it happen. Something suddenly hit me: sh*t, fire got the slums!
When huge fires such as this one hit a depressed area, the first thing that comes in my mind is “arson.”
and ends it by expressing hope that the next batch of leaders seriously confront the issue of housing and shelter for poor Filipinos.
