Controversy about Martial Law has been circulated in the media for many months already, and issues over the people that the President Duterte will sooner declare another martial law in his term.
Lately this month, people were again alarmed of the declaration that President Duterte has been announcing to the public.
“September 21 is not a holiday. I have declared it as a “Day of Protest.” Lahat ng gustong mag-protesta laban sa gobyerno, laban sa pulis, sa military o lahat, magbabaan kayo diyan, mag-protesta kami (All those who want to protest against the government, against the police, military or everyone. You all come down and conduct a protest action),” Duterte told reporters during a chance interview after his visit to the wake of a slain policeman in Caloocan City. (http://www.interaksyon.com/duterte-says-sept-21-is-a-day-of-protest-but-no-official-palace-advisory-yet-on-class-work-suspension/)
He said that September 21 will be the free day to protest for those who want, whatever your stand will be. You may join the 1 day allocated free protest day. The police officers will not banned you to do protest but make sure you will not override the law.
So the question here, is everybody knows about this matter? or are they aware of what will happen tomorrow?
Here are some insight from the public. (please watch the video)
"Para sakin, hindi (hindi agree na mayroong 1 day protest) kasi "martial law" yung nakikita ko sa balita, ang saklap nong mga nanyayari, thou mayrong mga positive side, more on kasi makikita natin ay ang negative side" said Imarie Machete, BSEd English student of Adventist University of the Philippines.
"Actually napakingan ko sya sa TV, na walang pasok, hindi ko alam kong bakit tapos nong napakingan ko, parang may rally, pwde mag rally. Pero hindi ko alam kong about saan ang rally, kaya naguluhan ako..." said Imarie Machete, BSEd English student of Adventist University of the Philippines.
"Alam ko (ang issue about dito), pero hindi ko alam kong ano ang "deniclare" said Fred, BS Accountancy student of Adventist University of the Philippines.
"Hindi naman sa ina-ano ko kung desisyon ng ating Presidente, pero disagree ako dun" said John Mark Eupalao, BS Management student of Adventist University of the Philippines.
Many people we asked about this matter does not have enough information about the declaration of President Duterte. One of the AUP faculty said that, she do not care about the declaration of free protest day, because she is not affected.
Moreover, most of the students of the Adventist University of the Philippines do not want to get involve about this issue, as long as they live peacefully they are all okey!
