CNN Heroes featuring Efren Penaflorida

[MrAnye22]

Efren, you are doing one of the greatest things a human being can do to another, that is to show compassion even though circumstances does not always allow you to. Perseverance and good heart is what you have.  Kudos to you. A true Filipino characteristic. Another reason I am proud to be one.

we're so proud of you efren.

nakakalungkot lang na ang CNN pa ang unang nakapansin ng kabayanihan ni efren. kung di pa dahil sa CNN di malalaman ng bansa ito.

para sa ataing lahat, i think this is a call na kung may magagawa tayo para maalleviate ang kahirapan ng ating bansa ay tumulong tayo. kahit sa mga simpleng bagay lang, alam ko may magagawa tayo.

more power to you efren. inspirasyon ka para sa aming lahat.

[eccesignu]

Idol! Hindi na si Manny Pacquiao ang idolo ko! Ikaw na!

[09blahblah]

@jayzone43 tama ka dyan. si pacquiao nagboboxing lang para sa sarili nyang interest -- of course para yumaman! at and damot pa nya ha. Noong Ondoy, 1 million lang ang binigay nya! ALAM NAMAN NATIN NA MILYONARYO SYA.

AH BSTA, HINDI SYA HERO!

[DrumTVShow]

4 every bad person in the world they is 5 people who r good and willing 2 help. they pass that on 2 people that they help.

remeber evry good deed is charity, smile at someone let them hnow that u av acknoledge them. well done i believe that if u show a child love, warmth and happiness that they will grow into adults that will give love,warmth and happiness.

[eccesignu]

To everyone, Thank you for the response

[jollyringo2]

You are a true Pilipino and I'm so proud of you . I know that one day someone will save our country from those blood sucking politicians. God Bless !!!!

[anaur91792]

seguro we need to save ourselves. all help each other...pero nakakatakot to go against the powers that be...in the words of an unknown filipino author " in order to give light we have to be willing to burn"...i mean look at what happened to all the people around the world throughout history who fought against dirty politicians, lahat sila pinatay...pero, dapat talaga mag stand up tayo. these living conditions of any filipino, rich or poor is unacceptable. we have to be willing to fight and die

[ulfcel]

Ikaw ang bagong Bayani ng Filipino... More blessing to come...

[bokap1]

You're truly a hero Efren!
