Tension heats up in Bayan Ko
MANILA, Philippines - In Bayan Ko tonight at 6:30 on GMA News TV, fate brings Mayor Joseph Santiago back to his old elementary school where the opposite of progress has taken effect.
He encounters malnourished students who have to use umbrellas inside their leaking classrooms and finds that several grades are being taught in the same room and at the same time by just one teacher.
Mayor Joseph brings up the sorry state of the province’s public schools during a forum attended by Gov. Antonio Rubio, causing the tension between them to take a very nasty turn.
Bayan Ko, which stars Rocco Nacino, Pen Medina, LJ Reyes, Ping Medina, Maria Isabel Lopez, Mercedes Cabral, among others, melds romance, conflict and the harsh realities of Philippine education and politics.
