Good afternoon, Sir Vince.

Before we begin, we’d like to thank you for sharing your

knowledge and experiences in research with us, that we were able to come up with our
own study proposal and get to this point where we could share it with others. Thank
you.

To begin, we would like to introduce ourselves once again.

I am Czarina Alimajen Legarde,

We’d like to propose a study about the:

Maguindanaons’ Search and Experience of Comfort in Times of Covid-19
Pandemic
The covid-19 pandemic has put every one of us through a variety of trying
circumstances. Now, the questions arise. How did the Maguindanaon people live at the
time? Compared to ours, were they different? How did they feel, and what did it look
like? Through this study, we will be able to learn more about them and find our answers.
(Basahin ang gen problem) This study seeks to explore the search and experience of
comfort of the Maguindanaons in times of COVID-19 pandemic.

Specifically, it seeks to answer the following questions:

1. What kind of lifestyle and struggles did Maguindanaons have during the Covid-19
pandemic?
2. What efforts have Maguindanaons made to meet their needs during the Covid-19
pandemic?
3. How did the Maguindanaons find comfort and cope with their problems in the
outbreak of Covid-19?

1. What kind of lifestyle and struggles did Maguindanaons have during the
Covid-19 pandemic?
  A lifestyle is the manner of life of an individual or community.
Several of us were compelled to live very different lives during the
pandemic.
 We have to change a variety of things, including how we interact
with one another, go about our daily lives, even how we eat and
dress.
 Was the Maguindanaons' way of life the same as it was prior to the
COVID-19 epidemic, or did they experience significant changes to
their way of life like the rest of us? How did it feel for them?

2. What efforts have Maguindanaons made to meet their needs during the
Covid-19 pandemic?
 It’s not uncommon to hear people complain about the lack of
resources during the pandemic. We faced great economic crisis.
 Some people were hoarding goods. Some did not have the right
resources to continue on with their lives the normal way.
 A good way to explore this issue is to ask, “How were the
Maguindnaons able to meet their needs during the covid-19
pandemic? What efforts did they make to survive?”

3. How did the Maguindanaons find comfort and cope with their problems in
the outbreak of Covid-19?
 The impact of the pandemic was felt in every area of our lives. Our
habits, social relationships, physical and mental health, and
surroundings have all changed.
 We need an adjustment and adaptation in order to live. In order to
keep a balance in our well-being and retain our sanity during such
times, it was a natural impulse to look for comfort.
 Every one of us has experienced the need to find consolation. How
did the Maguindanaons do this? What coping techniques did they
employ to deal with the issues they encountered?
 How, in the midst of everything that transpired, did they manage to
maintain their lives? How did they get comfort? And how did they
feel afterwards?
 In this study, we want to learn more about those things?
The purpose of this research is to explore the aforementioned areas. We wanted to
learn more about the Maguindanaons' daily lives and get a sense of what life was like
for them during the Covid-19 outbreak.
