This edition of VOX POPULI is featuring the
netizens’ reactions, responses and comments to
questions posted on the FB page of the Managing
Editor of “The Bohol Tribune”.
The question is:
“Ma’am, unsay akong angay nga buhaton? Adunay
nangutang nako. Unya kapin na sa usa ka tuig nga
walay bayad. Magkita ra ba mi kada adlaw. Inig kita
namo, alang kaniya, susama lang gyud sa walay
nahitabo. Usahay, mora ug ako ang mauwaw. Unsay
akong buhaton?” (Ma’am, what am I supposed to do?
Somebody owes me money. It has been one year since
he received the amount, but he has never done any
payment at all. And we see each other every day. As we
see each other, it seems as though he does not owe me
anything. Sometimes, I feel embarrassed seeing him.
What will I do?)
