4. What particular topic (excluding those not discussed inside the classroom) has struck our
mind and why?
One particular topic that has retained in my mind which was discussed inside the
classroom was a tweet by an Ateneo student regarding Jollibee if I remember it correctly.
The tweet was regarding how these students refused to eat at Jollibee because it was
“pang-masa” or rather food for the common people. It has struck me of how the social
classes of the Philippines were so far apart. These students which probably belong to the
higher strata in the Philippines does not only prove the social inequality occurring in the
Philippines but also the discrimination against the common people. Also, it is truly
disappointing how instead of indulging ourselves on Philippine products some still prefer
those produced by other countries.
