The Maguindanao massacre, also known as the Ampatuan massacre (after the town where the mass graves were found), occurred on the morning of November 23, 2009, in the town of Ampatuan in Maguindanao province, on the island of Mindanao in the Philippines. The victims were about to file a certificate of candidacy for Esmael Mangudadatu, vice mayor of Buluan town. Mangudadatu was challenging Andal S. Ampatuan, Jr., son of the incumbent Maguindanao governor Datu Andal Ampatuan Sr., in the forthcoming Maguindanao gubernatorial election,[1] part of the national elections in 2010. Those killed included Mangudadatu's wife, his two sisters, lawyers, and aides.
I got frightened when I heard this news. Specially when most of the victims are women. They were killed brutal. This happened before the start of the campaign... and what do we expect when during the campaign period or the election day?
People now can dared to kill for the sake of the politics...
I condemn this Massacre and the people who can do this.
They don't have the right to be alive in this world.
What really happened?
This is a big problem to our government?
What can they do now?
