What you(th) can do? Meeting PAHRA's baby (PhilRights)

Today was an exciting day yet sad because we left Los Baños, Laguna where we used to stay, enjoy and unwind especially when we visited Mount Makiling where we discovered a lot of things about nature. After taking our breakfast we took some group photo outside the hostel for some new memories to hold.

Then we ride the bus going to Manila, during our ride it was very quiet in the bus, because the most of us were tired. We conducted our last talk and workshop at Kabayan Hotel, which we met some representative members of NGO (non-government-organization) of PhilRights (baby-organization of PAHRA) and they tackled a lot of things about human rights specifically about Philippines and their mission to help others in need and make the youth as the instrument to spread out the information about the importance of the human rights in every individual. Because of the young representatives from PhilRights, we could easily follow their presentation. After the presentation our last task was "Sloganeering" - we felt like little demonstrators for human rights.

After our workshop most of us went to the mall Alaya Center to buy a "Hardrock Café" T-shirt. We took the MRT (Metro-rail-transit). It was completely overfilled, because it is one of the main transportation in Manila also the fastest and affordable for the citizens living in Manila. As we arrived at the mall, we were disappointed to recognize that the "Hardrock Café" got out the mall since January.

In the evening all of us went to bed immediately, because we have to get up early in the morning to catch our flight to Puerto Princesa City, Palawan.

PS: Tomorrow it could be difficult to write the blog, because of our presentation in San Miquel High School. And we will stay in our host families.
