Netizens React to VP Leni Robredo’s Facebook Live + Idea of ‘Pink Museum’ to House Supporters’ Gifts

Netizens React to VP Leni Robredo’s Facebook Live + Idea of ‘Pink Museum’ to House Supporters’ Gifts

May 13, 2022   •   Meryl Medel

After a few days of limited appearances from Vice President Leni Robredo, she greeted her supporters again through a Facebook live. She hosted the livestream to sort through the thousands of gifts she received from supporters, read their letters and notes, and thank them on the spot. Throughout the live, VP Leni and her team carefully listed and audited each gift, sorting them into different categories according to what they will be doing with them while also preparing to send thank-you notes to each supporter.

 

‘Pink museum’

VP Leni also voiced out an idea to establish a museum that would house some of the gifts, ranging from paintings to sculptures and from scarves to handwoven bags that were all created in honor of the so-called ‘pink movement’ that her volunteer-driven candidacy has inspired.

“Ano ‘yung mga dreams ko ngayon? Ang dreams ko talagang magkaroon tayo ng isang lugar where we can display everything you gave us, kasi part siya ng kuwento ng awakening, part siya ng kuwento ng awakening na magbe-benefit ‘yung maraming kabataan,” she said.


Aside from the museum, VP Leni also sorted the items into piles of duplicates to share with her running mate Kiko Pangilinan, give away to other supporters, or even put up for auction. The funds that will be raised from the auction will be used to continue her anti-poverty program Angat Buhay even after her vice presidency ends.

“So pag-uusapan siguro by tomorrow sa ating pasasalamat, pag-usapan natin kung papaano natin mapu-put to good use iyong mga bigay ninyo, kasi ang sakit sa loob to part with all of these,” she added.

 

Netizens love her *and* her idea


Her first livestream lasted for one and a half hours and received over a hundred thousand viewers. Netizens flocked to the comment section to thank her, while others immediately shared screenshots from the live, and word of her plans spread.

VP Leni held another later at night after her meetings for the day, lasting nearly two hours, as she and her team continued to sort through the gifts well into the night.
