Opinion: Labor Day

Today is May 1, 2020; a National Holiday in the Philippines. But this year's celebration was different from previous years.  

If we look back A year ago, militant groups will rally in Fuente Osmeña Circle in Cebu City. Mostly from PISTON, ALU-NUCP among others. It is a movement, a day of celebration. Expressing our sentiments to the government like wage increase, contractualization, labor laws and benefits.

With the ongoing Enhanced Community Quarantine (ECQ) due to the coronavirus disease COVID-19, everything has changed. We are advise to stay in our own homes. The government does not allow gatherings, in which social distancing is strictly implemented. The authorities believed that containment will take long and sacrifices must be done, It needs our cooperation.

We hope that this will end soon. We understand that the government is doing its best. Digging -out all its resources to support the country. It is rightful indeed we give our share and our commitment that we are one on this fight. 

We Heal As One!
