It's too early for this..

I'm going back to sleep..

Amotolongbo:
Sincerely, it is possible.

There are some programs and initiatives happening in the core North which are not fully implemented here in the south. Don’t be surprised if told that school children in the north are being fed daily. Though the figures by the VP may be overestimated.

Ain’t trying to defend the Vice President, just talking based on some things I’ve seen.

If the government only focused on North..
What happen to South, West and East..
Lets be realistic here..
PMB government is ..
Government for the north, by the north and for the north.
