"Yung pambabatikos nga na tuwing may national event, inaakusahan kaming itinatago namin ang mga bata. Pero kapag ginagawa naman namin ito na walang national event, hindi kami kinikibo. Ibig sabihin ko, ang akin na lang pagtingin, makikinig ako kung totoong meron kaming maling ginawa aking wawastuhin. ‘Yung mga kritikong para maging nega lamang, pinapasa-Diyos ko na lang ‘yun.” (We are criticized every time there is a national event, we are being accused of hiding the street children. But when we do this even if there is no national event, we are not noticed. In my point of view, I would listen [to the criticisms] and if we really do have shortcomings, I would correct them. The critics who just spread negativity, I just leave [their fate] up to the Lord.)"
