A short note why “Forgotten Warriors

Home

A short note why “Forgotten Warriors” was not used in my letter to President Gloria (already delivered yesterday to Malacanang). The reason is that our country is not engaged in war against any country – Afghanistan, Iran, or what. It would be foolhardy for the President to mention the phrase to describe our Filipino workers who are working as civilian employees as “warriors” forgotten or not in foreign wars in which our country is not engaged in. Those people are merely trying to earn a living under a most perilous situation – of course a sad commentary of the level of poverty our country is in. Senator Pimentel (As e-mailed to Bobby Reyes, editor of www.mabuhayradio.com)
