Manila Boy: HERO

It's almost impossible to find a real hero

in our country these days; when one surfaces,

that person deserves nothing less than our full support.

Our soldiers, specially those out in the frontlines,

those in the field, in constant danger from insurgents

and terrorists; the same soldiers who barely have enough

food to survive day to day; the same soldiers who would gladly

sacrifice their lives for the nation, yet aren't even provided with

the basic necessities like medicines, uniforms and boots, and bullets.

It seems that many of their top commanders,

have been playing a most sinister game: much of the AFP funds

is not spent for the troops' needs, but rather,

is saved for the Games of the Generals.

Game Over.

One lady, singlehandedly, with zero fear,

armed only with an unswerving dedication

to expose the corruption that rots our military,

has come forward to document the general graft.

Her extreme personal and professional sacrifice is epic.

Like our soldiers out in the war zones, she is truly heroic.

Thank You, Heidi.

The heroic volunteers of NAMFREL from 1986

had a motto which they lived up to during the

last dark, desperate days of the dictatorship:

"It's better to light a candle

than to curse the darkness."
