A message to Ateneo faculty member Nathania Chua a.k.a. @PilosopoTanya

Dear Nathania Chua:

My professor in “Global Poverty, Local Solutions” did field work in poverty stricken areas in the Philippines. During our first day, when I introduced myself as a Filipino, he told me this immediately: “One of the major problems in your country is that the elite in your country is so full of themselves.”

The Ateneo de Manila University is one of the schools where the elite are educated. I noticed that you are an Assistant Instructor there. I fear for the future of our country with you as the teacher of our future elite. What a horrifying future for our motherland!

So when I worry about how hard it is for the laylayan in our lipunan to advance in our society, I’ll always think of you and imagine how you have connived in perpetuating a system that constantly rewards matapobres.  A University that doesn’t see any problem with a DOJ Secretary fncking her subordinate, her married subordinate, is a university doomed to produce the same elite that turned our country into a haven for pedophiles and drug syndicates.

That’s all.
