There are also repetitive cases about VAW incidents. The BLGU of Pasonanca with the supervision of the barangay Focal Person for VAW prescribes or suggests counseling to the victims and suspects of the incidents. The Local government unit updates and checks the after situation of the complainants and respondents. But then if the cases are unbearable by the BLGU of Pasonanca it will be referred to the higher court. Description on Data Collection Process Each case was interviewed and observed for 2-3 visits, as most often the survivors did not speak up on the first visit (Introductory) but on the second and/or third visits (familiarization and trust-building). In some instances, the husbands or partners had stern receptions and indirectly hampered the research. In few cases, the respondents spoke with the halo effect, in which they confidently show off their knowledge on the Anti-VAW Law as per taught by the Barangay authorities, most often identified as the Barangay VAW Focal Person. The data in Table 1 shows the distribution of respondents who displayed knowledge on the Anti-VAW Law or Republic Act No. 6292. By having been “told”, means the woman has been informed through an information material that may be a leaflet, brochure, booklet, ore ven poster or tarpaulin, or through a symposium or any other gathering. 28
