No person or nation is too poor to be unable to help others in times
of great need.
It is refreshing that our government immediately sent help to Turkey
and Syria as both nations were jolted by 7.8 magnitude temblor,
notwithstanding our own nation being battered by problems/issues left
and right like never before - from onion, inflation, corruption to
China invasion. Proverbs 11:25.
Do we often/usually do this as a country? Nope. What is common is our
nation being a recipient of compassion and all types of help and
assistance from other governments when natural calamities and
catastrophes hit our land.
President Bongbong Marcos was prompt in his action as he appears
genuine, having a heart for the victims of the massive earthquake that
caused and tallied 12,000 confirmed deaths as of this writing. BBM is
showing some signs that he's different from most of his predecessors
in this aspect and in some other areas that he can be lauded (thus
far), much less in his seemingly openness/receptivity to criticisms.
Kudos.
