KNOWN as an outspoken celebrity, especially when it comes to his political views, actor Enchong Dee said he has grown up not being afraid to let people know what’s on his mind, especially if it’s for the good of the people.
“Bata pa lang ako mahilig na ako manuod ng news. Tapos at the same time, parang ang unfair na kumuha ka ng edukasyon mo tapos tinuturo sa ‘yo ng magulang mo kung ano ‘yung tama at mali, pero bakit sa gobyerno natin bakit ganun? Kumbaga, ako naman, wala naman akong intention na (magsabi), ‘Okay, you’re a bad person. You’re a good person.’ Hindi ganun eh. Ang point ko lang, kung ano ‘yung ginagawa niyo sa amin eh mangyayari sa ating lahat. Kumbaga damay rin kayo. Kung hindi niyo kami tutulungan, eh anong mangyayari sa atin ‘di ba?” he shared.
The 31-year-old host also likened the situation of the country to the film industry.
“‘Pag gagawa ng pelikula, kailangan may writer, director, nasa isang direction kayo. ‘Pagka nasa isang direction kayo, maganda ‘yung kalalabasan. Pero kung kanya kanya kayo tapos nag-aaway away pa kayo dun mismo, makikita ‘yun sa pelikula eh. Lalabas ‘yung pelikula na panget ‘di ba? So ganun din ‘yung kalalabasan ng bansa natin. Pero kung meron tayong boses, meron naman tayong opinyon, gamitin natin para tulungan natin ‘yung ibang tao na (mag-isip na), ‘Maybe may point siya.’ So ako lang, gamitin natin ‘yung magagandang opinyon para mapabuti ‘yung kalagayan nating lahat. I won’t be fake and I won’t lie pero I like hanging out with people that I can learn a lot from,” he added.(Push)
