Dear Pinoy celebrities, Here are some of the things I truly hope you considered before taking the icebucket challenge (just to give you some perspective): According to the ALS Philippines facebook page there are about 1000 recorded cases of ALS in our country, (which of course is hopefully happy with the awareness program you are taking part in, considering you did actually donated 100usd which is about 4500php). But did you also know that according to an SWS survey last year about 19.3% of 1200 of our kababayans, experience hunger in the first part of the year? And that is just a portion of our population. Now when you did the challenge and use the bucket of ice water, I hope you also consider that recent survey indicates that only 44.4 percent of the total population has household connection to water supply (Level III) with more than half relying on either communal water systems (Level II, 12.5 percent) or protected wells and springs (Level I, 31.8 percent). (Annual Poverty Indicators Survey, 2011) This shortfall seriously impacts economic growth, health and overall development of the country. manilatimes.net/giving-filipinos-access-to-clean-drinking-water/106389/ Sana lang ano, naisip nyo yan, bago kayo nag challenge. Kasi kahit sabihin nyo na chinallenge lang kayo or its for a good cause eh lahat ng bagay pinagiisipan lalo na kung me impluwensya ka sa paligid mo. So bale kung ganyan, me study rin na tumaas na ang suicide saten so pwede kayo ichallenge na tumalon sa bangil to create awareness, at sunod naman kayo since uso. So yun lang, good luck on your future endeavors!
