Suzette Doctolero aired her opinion on the controversial DepEd illustration of farmers, which showed a farmer and his family dressed in tattered clothing.
Her comment came after the agency went viral on social media because of the said illustration.
The GMA-writer, on her part, took to Twitter and said that the illustration is correct because farmers' lives are miserable as they only get to have new shirts if it is a giveaway during an election or when hardware stores would hand out free shirts.
"Ah e ano ba akala sa damit ng mga magsasaka at pamilya? Branded? Tama ang drawing. Miserable ang buhay ng mga magsasaka natin. Nagkakabagong damit lang ang magsasaka ‘pag may libreng tshirt sa hardware (tuwing pasko) o give away sa election.'"
Philstar reported some of the comments made by netizens on the said illustration.
Ang mali po at ang nakakabahala ay ang unang larawan. Walang problema sa kwento, ang mali ay ang unang illustration at ang nag-approve niyan.
Sobrang makaluma, mapang-api at napag-iwanan na ng panahon ang mga konsepto na tinuturo sa mga bata.
My Grandfather was a farmer and so are my cousins and uncles/aunts. I rarely see them dressed in rags. All of them made professional kids, us included. DepEd has a really big cut in each year's budget but can't hire a decent editor or proofreader.
