It should be a happy celebration of Wowowee’s first anniversary show, but instead, it became a traumatic tragedy for the family of those who died and got hurt on the stampede. I seldom watch an afternoon show, but if time permits, I?d rather watch Eat Bulaga than Wowowee. But today, my attention was caught by Wowowee. The news was blaring that 61 people died already on the stampede outside Ultra, where the event should take place. It just saddens me that the lack of discipline among some Filipinos could be the reason of other people?s death. And what is more disgusting (I couldn?t think of any other word to describe it) is – besides the fact that they could already see the people getting hurt and worst, grasping for breath, they are still pushing each other just to make it inside. This tragic event shows that there are indeed many poor Filipino families. We could not blame the people who went there in hope of winning cash prizes. This should be a wake up call not only for the government, but also to every Filipino, that we should do something to stop poverty and learn the meaning of discipline. Or we could help in our own little way ? just by praying for those who died and get hurt and for their families as well.
