Robi muling nanawagan sa kabataan na magparehistro at bumoto: Challenge the system…

Robi Domingo

KUNG may dalawang mahahalagang advocacy na ipinaglalaban ngayon ang Kapamilya TV host na si Robi Domingo, yan ay ang pangangalaga sa kalikasan at ang pagpapa-register para makaboto sa susunod na eleksyon.

Isa ang binata sa mga bagong celebrity ambassador ng World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) Philippines na tumutulong sa mga proyektong may kinalaman sa environment protection.

“My advocacy is about pragmatic sustainability. It just originally stems from I’m very kuripot. I’m sure lots of people in my life know that. 

“The thing is, I got this show called Lakwatsero and I was exposed to different environments especially here in the Philippines and my gosh, ang ganda ng Pilipinas. I got to be on top of Mt. Apo. I got to go to Moalboal and different, beautiful places in the Philippines.

“And sayang kung sisirain lang. And naisip ko being this kuripot being, in the process you could save more and you can save the planet. So yun ang naisip ko,” pahayag ni Robi sa online chikahan nila ni G3 San Diego.

Kasunod nito, nabanggit nga ng TV host na hinding-hindi siya mapapagod sa pagpapaalala sa sambayanang Filipino, lalo na sa mga kabataan na magparehistro na para makaboto sa 2022 elections.

“Another advocacy na I’m very passionate about ngayon lalo na we got 45 days until the registration ends is that certain ability to vote. 

“Especially for the youth kasi the question na palaging tinatanong sa akin or sentiment is, ‘Isa lang naman ako eh, ano ba ang effect nito?’ 

“But I just want to encourage everyone na let’s have a change of mindset and challenge the system. Instead of saying ‘Isa lang ako,’ say, ‘Isa pa ako.’ 

“Because what you’re doing is not just your right, it’s a responsibility. And that responsibility entails not just your story, my story, our story, but it’s part of history. 

“And it will have this ripple effect in the stories of the next generations to come. So we have that certain ability to put accountable people in power who have informed decisions and sustainable plans for the country. 

“So if you’re just wondering bakit kailangan gawin ito, I just invite you to really open your eyes, open your ears and see and listen to what’s happening right now,” dire-diretso pang pahayag ng binata.

Ipinagdiinan din ni Robi na ang bawat Filipino ay may karapatang magsalita tungkol sa gobyerno at sa mga nangyayari sa bansa, kabilang na ang mga taga-showbiz.

“As a brand, you have different caps to wear, you have different faces and as a human being, it’s not just being an artist, it’s not just being an interviewer, it’s not just being a politician, it’s being a Filipino.

“It’s being a citizen of this beautiful country. To the people who are very vocal, I am with you. And to the people who are just getting there, we’ll be waiting but we are for you,” lahad pa ng loyal Kapamilya star.
