“Philippine history is pockmarked with painful legacies. When will you guys realize this rotten system Duterte seeks to dismantle would not just fade without giving a fight… the oligarchy, political opposition, the druglords and their protectors, human rights activists, NPAs, terrorists… all going against the president to stop change, not to mention the foreign intervention,” Vivian said.
She also stressed that the Philippines is now under the “correcting stage” in order to survive, “unity” will serve as a “lifejacket at this increasingly divisive time.”
Vivian also encouraged everyone to love the Philippines with its flaws and all. She also used the hashtag “Mahal Kong Pilipinas”. In the comment section, several netizens agreed to what the TV host stated and disagreed with Lea Salonga’s post.
