Beltran family reunion of sorts
Ka Bel was able to cast his vote for Anakpawis party-list yesterday morning past 10. It was the first time that he’d seen and hug his first great grandchild Jan Ray in months, and despite the stress of having to walk surrounded by armed guards like some dangerous criminal, it was nonetheless a happy reunion of sorts.
Sir Mon Ramirez of arkibongbayan.org took Ka Bel’s pictures while Ka Bel was actually voting. I stayed outside the polling precinct and kidded around with Anakpawis Sec. Gen. Sammy Malunes who wasn’t able to vote because he’s ‘wanted’ in Bulacan by the military (he was forced to relocate his entire family to Quezon City because their lives where in danger. There was the serious threat of Ka Sam being added to the list of victims of extrajudicial killings).
More later.
