PEACE MARCH

This Peace March happened last May 7, 2015 in front of the House of the Representatives in Batasan. It was a blast! The march supported the passage of the Bangsamoro Basic  Law (BBL) since it is the hot issue as of the moment. It was fun meeting people from different places with different perspectives and opinions. Yey! Anyways, I woke up at around 6 AM so I could go to the venue by 7 AM. The team had to go there early because we have to arrange the kits that are yet to be distributed for the CSOs. :) The kits contain t-shirts, pins and research papers about the Bangsamoro Basic Law and our Muslim friends, :) By 8 AM, we all started to walk from a parish near Ever Gotesco Commonwealth to House of Representatives.

Then finally, we were in front of the House of Representatives by 9:30 :)



The Akbayan Chairperson - Risa Hontiveros in the house yo!



I fancy seeing our thesis adviser speaking in front of many people about peace. Hooray! :) Hi, sir Kaloy Anasarias! :)




There was it! The peace march ended at around 11 AM. After the event, my boss invited me to a cafe somewhere in Cubao to have merienda. While having our merienda, we fixed the list of people who are going to be a part of the audience for a forum for the next day. Anyways, here's a picture of some of the food in the cafe lol



We ended at around 7 PM. Yeeeeaaaah!
