Mr. Alwayne Cunanan is a government employee and a father of two. I’ve met him while we were shooting a video for a school project. He happened to be the gatekeeper of the organization we were working with. Like most of the interviewees, he got informed with the RH Bill through the news. Admittedly, at first he thought that the RH Bill supported abortion which really turned him off, but after some reading he did on his own, he found out that the RH Bill turned out to be okay for him.
“Tingin ko di naman ganoon ka laking issue kung mapapasa yan sa Congress. Kala ko kasi dati parang sinsasabi na pwede na abortion daw.”
He told me that he found the current family planning methods being taught to married couples were very helpful for him and that he also thinks that passing the bill would help young fathers like him to know how to limit the number of their children.
“Alam mo, sa hirap ng buhay ngayon, kailangan talaga mag-family planning eh… di talaga basta basta yan. Kaya tingin ko okay din yan RH Bill kasi diba magtuturo din yan ng Sex Education tama ba?”
Based from what I noticed from my interview with Mr. Cunanan, I’ve noticed that the basis for his answers were the positive effects of the current family planning program available. Which, made me realize that sometimes the best way to convince people that the RH Bill was really needed was to make them experience personally what the RH Bill was for.
