Execution of 3 Filipinos
What would be the appropriate reaction of what had just happened a while ago? About the execution of the three filipinos accused of drug trafficking? Even if I personally do not have any personal relationship with the three of them, I still feel very sad about the incident. Who would not be? Just try to be in the position of the relatives of the victims and probably you will also feel the same way towards the unfortunate tragedy. However, if we also view it in a justifiable way, maybe it was them who put their own lives in that situation and they knew from the start that what they did is wrong but then they still pursue in that very bad decision. "The reflection of our actions represents who we are". Maybe it's not the executers intention to just kill these three people but they are just serving JUSTICE to every one whatever your race may be. In our history during theb Marcos adminiostration, chinese men were also executed because of drug traficking and they were shot in a firing squad position. Now after so many years, filipinos are also being executed because of the same reason. At exaclty 9:30 in the morning, 30th day of March, these three filipino OFWs waved their last godbyes to their families who were at that time chose to see them personally so they flew to China where the execution will happen. The same day on it's 12 noon, the execution ended. Even the government is mourning on the death of the three, sadness would not be appropriate for the feelings we felt but more on despair. At the very last minute of the execution, the families and relatives are still hoping for a miracle. A miracle not granted. These thre kababayans were execited through lethal injection. But first they were put into sleep before they proceed with the injection.
