SECURITY GUARDS. Upon knowing that Rep. Mikey Arroyo was in town recently to see the bereaved families of the two security guards slain the Robinson robbery, two sikyus wanted to see him to air their concerns. Mikey being the partylist rep of the security guards.

NO MEETING. The two sikyus failed to see their congressman. Someone said to them: “Nianhi to siya aron makigkita sa duha ka patay’ng sikyu, dili sa buhi nga sikyu.” The two guards said they were e-mailing a letter for Mikey where they laid bare their concerns about the problems of the blue guards here.
