Dating trato pa din naman ng mga kapitbahay sa amin. Pero yun lang, yung mga customer dati sa kainan namin, di na pumupunta, takot din siguro. (Region I) There were also six women (1.3%) who said that the community was the same even after the EJK. One interviewee said that while she still feels safe in their community, she is not comfortable with the idea that even innocent persons can be killed (“susceptible to abuse”) (Region V). One woman also feels safer because “the peace situation improved due to the proclamation of Martial Law” (Region IX). For one mother, she and her family have nothing to fear because they are not involved in illegal drugs: Sa akin Ma’am, ta wala naman kaming gawain, na tulad ng inano nila kay [the EJK victim] na droga, hindi kami natatakot ng anak ko, ako, mga Uncle ko, asawa ko, hindi kami natatakot, dahil hindi namin nahawakan yang ganyan na trabaho [drug dealing] at hindi namin nakita kung ano yang klase, hindi kami natatakot. Sabi naman nila sa akin, baka lang pati kayo manmanan, kasi ganito. Eh, okay lang sabi ko, manmanan kami sa gusto nila, pero, bago naman nilang gagawin yung kagaya ng ginawa nila sa anak ko, sabi ko, makonsensiya sila dahil may anak din sila, may kapatid din sila. Huwag naman nilang gawin na parang ibon kami o parang isang hayop kami dahil hindi sila ang nagbigay ng buhay namin, hindi sila ang nagpalaki sa amin. Pare-parehas lang tayong hniram ang buhay. Walang dapat kukuha ng buhay na binigay ng Panginoon sa atin sabi ko, yun ang isasagot ko sa kanila Ma’am kasi yung ang talagang alam ko. Lagi kong napapanaginipan yung bata na yan. (Region II) 5. Access to Government Support More than half of the women interviewed (60.9%) did not mention accessing or being offered government support for various needs that might have arisen due to the death of their family member in the War on Drugs. This is prior to or apart from the CHR intervention or legal assistance to their case. Table 3.12: Access to Government Support Region Access to Government Support?
