meralco

There is only one company that supplies electricity here in the Philippines and that is MERALCO (may liwanag ang buhay). Last night there is a patrol car announcing in our street that there will be a black out tomorrow around 10am to 2pm because MERALCO is adding a transformer to all the electricity post here in our street. I woke up around 1030 because the electricity went off. When I look at the window of my room, I saw these men adding transformers to the post that is near our house about two houses away from ours. They don’t have harness when they climb the post. They saw me and they wave their hands saying hi, I just smiled at them.

police brutality

This morning before leaving the house for school, I notice the news about the accused holdaper that is being tortured by a police. The accused was on the floor curled up naked while the police is pulling a string tied on the organ of the accused. I don’t want to see something like that knowing that they are police officers. My trust on our police officers vanished. From now on I will never respect them. They have the duty to protect this country yet they show something undesirable. Police brutality is one of the biggest crimes committed by the police officers. I think it is enough that a person who commits crime, fraud or negligence suffer from a lifetime imprisonment. They should not torture them because being in prison is kind of torture that may be done to a person. I hate police officers like that. I think they are paid to do that. They are not worth of respect.
