DEAR PHILIPPINE GOVERNMENT,

I NORMALLY DON'T TYPE IN ALL CAPS BECAUSE IT LOOKS SORDID AND UNORGANIZED AND IT IS IRRITATING. BUT I HAVE TO THIS TIME.
WE, YES, WE, AT LEAST MOST OF 110 MILLION FILIPINOS, WE DO UNDERSTAND THIS COVID-19 CRISIS ISN'T IN ANY WAY YOUR FAULT.

NOBODY SAID IT IS. THE VIRUS IS SMART AND DEADLY AND A REAL THREAT TO ECONOMY AND TO OUR LIVES. WE GET THAT IT MAKES SENSE TO STAY HOME AND OBSERVE PHYSICAL DISTANCING TO ABATE THE SPREAD OF INFECTION. WE FUCKING GET THAT. BUT HERE'S WHAT GRINDS MY GEARS: YOU ORDERED BUSINESSES..

TO STOP THEIR OPERATIONS, CEASE PRODUCTION, CLOSE NON ESSENTIAL BUSINESS UNTIL THIS CRISIS IS OVER. AND THEN WHAT? YOU NEVER HAD ANY ACTIONABLE PLANS. NOTHING CONCRETE. THE DECISIONS YOU MADE SINCE DAY 1 OF QUARANTINE HAVE BEEN NOTHING BUT ON THE FLY...

OR WHAT YOU THOUGHT WAS RIGHT. YOU TOLD EVERYBODY THAT YOU WOULD HELP. YOU HAD YOUR MONDAY NIGHT PRESS BRIEFING THAT COMPRISED OF LIP SERVICE, CURSES, INCONSEQUENTIAL STATEMENTS THAT MADE NO SENSE THAT WOULD CONFUSE EVEN THE MENTALLY CHALLENGED AIRHEAD AND THE INEPT.

YOU TOLD EVERYBODY YOU WOULD HELP. IT'S BEEN ALMOST 3 FUCKING MONTHS AND THE "BEST" THING YOU'VE EVER DONE IS EXTEND THE QUARANTINE AND PROLONG THE SUFFERING OF PEOPLE. PEOPLE WHON LOST THEIR JOBS, WHOSE WORK HOURS WERE REDUCES JUST SO THEIR COMPANIES CAN MANAGE THEIR CASHFLOW...

ALMOST 3 MONTHS AND MANY STILL ARE WAITING TO BE HELPED BY YOU. WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING? LET ME TELL YOU WHAT YOU'RE DOING. YOU'RE PRACTICALLY DOING NOTHING. NOTHING. YOU PAY MORE ATTENTION TO SOCIAL MEDIA POSTS, SENSELESS JOKES THAT EVEN DOGS WOULD TURN A BLIND EYE FROM...

BUT WHERE'S THE HELP? BILLIONS OF PESOS FROM WORLD BANK, ADB, FOREIGN AID, EMERGENCY FUNDS COLLECTIVELY AND STILL YOU FAIL TO PROVIDE SUFFICIENT HELP. INSTEAD, MINDLESS PRESS RELEASES, DISTORTED FACTS, EMPTY PROMISES, CONTRADICTING EACH OTHER, BULLSHIT RETRACTIONS...

...AND OTHER MINDLESS FUCKERY. YOU HAVE LAWS YOU PUT IN PLACE AND ARRESTED THE PEOPLE WHO WERE JUST TRYING TO FEED THEIR FAMILIES YET YOU ABSOLVED A GENERAL BECAUSE YOU THOUGHT HE'S HONEST AND IRREPLACEABLE. ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME? SERIOUSLY?;

MANY PEOPLE RENT, HAVE BILLS TO PAY, MORTGAGES, CAR LOANS TO ATTEND TO. HOW CAN THEY WHEN THEY EITHER GOT RETRENCHED OR THEIR WORK HOURS WERE REDUCED? YOU WANT TO HELP? HOW ABOUT YOU SHOULDER THOSE EXPENSES UNTIL THE BACK END? HOW ABOUT FINANCIAL AMNESTY?...

HOW ABOUT REMIND YOURSELVES OF THE HELP YOU GUARANTEED PEOPLE? HOW ABOUT THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE YOU'VE PROVIDED AND NOT CLAIM IT WAS FROM THE GOODNESS OF YOUR HEARTS? IT'S FROM THE TAXES WE PAID, YOU JACKASSES...

SO STOP PLAYING THE HERO HERE. YOU ARE NOT THE HERO. YOU HAVE A FUCKING RESPONSIBILITY TO THE PEOPLE WHO PUT YOU IN POWER. YOU'RE NOT THE HERO. YOU HAVE AN OBLIGATION TO THE FILIPINO PEOPLE. TAKE A LOOK AROUND AND YOU WILL SEE HOW MANY PEOPLE OUT THERE IN THE STREETS...

HOLDING PAPER CUPS, STRETCHING THEIR ARMS OUT TO COMPLETE STRANGERS ASKING FOR HELP BECAUSE THEY HAVE NO OTHER MEANS TO HELP THEIR FAMILY. AS EFFICIENT AS OTHER LGUs TRY TO BE, TRY HARDER BECAUSE THERE ARE MOTHERS AND FATHERS AND SISTERS AND BROTHERS OUT THERE BEGGING, PLEADING..

FOR ANY AMOUNT JUST SO THEY CAN HAVE SOMETHING TO EAT. AND YOU, YOU BUNGLING IDIOTS STAND BEHIND THE PODIUM WITH YOUR SUGARCOATED DECLARATIONS DO NOTHING BUT ENABLE THE INCOMPETENCE OF THE POWERS THAT BE AND PROTECT THOSE WENT AGAINST THE VERY LAW YOU SO THROW IN OUR FACES.

HOW DARE YOU?

YOU SAID YOU WILL HELP EVERYBODY. NO. YOU DIDN'T. AND YOU'RE NOT.

YOU ARE ONLY HELPING YOUR SELFISH INTERESTS.

YOU REALLY WANT TO HELP? THEN HELP ELIMINATE THE BURDEN OF SHOULDERING PILES AND PILES OF PAYMENTS. NO FURLOUGHS, NO EXTENSIONS. HELP THEM. HELP US.

HELP US UNTIL THIS IS OVER. THE KIND IF HELP THAT WE CAN SEE, FEEL, TASTE, AND REMEMBER. THERE SHOULD HAVE A REAL PLAN FROM THE VERY START. A PLAN TO GET THROUGH EVERYBODY THESE ALMOST 3 MONTHS. A REAL PLAN FOR EVERYBODY SO THEY DON'T HAVE TO WORRY. BUT NO. STAY HOME IS ONE THING

BUT STAYING HOME WITH NOTHING TO EAT AND NO LITTLE MONEY IS JUST DISASTER. A DISASTER YOU CREATED AND FEIGNING TO RESOLVE JUST TO APPEAR HEROIC AND RESPONSIBLE. NO. YOU ACTUALLY GIVE VILLAINS A RUN FOR THEIR MONEY.
YOU WANT TO HELP. HELP. DON'T WAIT TO BE CRITICIZED...

...AND CALLED OUT. JUST HELP FOR CRYING OUT LOUD. IF YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING ENOUGH, YOU'RE NOT. BECAUSE IF SO, THEN THERE WILL BE NO CRITICISMS, THERE WILL BE NO CLAMOR, THERE WILL BE NO PROTESTATIONS.

THERE WON'T BE THESE TWEETS.

HELP. JUST HELP.
