Let us learn through this siege in Marawi as a nation to somehow remember the pains that our brothers and sisters passed through in life in exchange with a big amount of money being bribed with our own people in Mindanao. That in the coming years we may learn to say no to such deals that would destroy our families and nation as well.
Revisiting the tragic backstory of the Maranaos at SM’s Picturing Marawi Photo Exhibit featuring the heart tugging photos of the Marawi siege aftermath immortalized by former journalist Mylah Reyes Roque from June 3 to August 31 in selected SM malls.
“The exhibit memorializes the tragedy in Marawi with the aim to engage mallgoers and help them have a better understanding of the conflict” said Jonjon San Agustin, SM Supermalls senior vice president for marketing.
Picturing Marawi narrates the aftermath of human conflict through images of the buildings, homes and mosques that are deserted by the war but nevertheless speak of the community that used to make it alive.
These are stories of a siege fought in close quarters.
Catch the photo exhibit in the following SM malls: Megamall (June 3- June 11), Southmall (June 24-June29), Rosario (August 5- August 11), and Telabastagan (August 25- August 31) . This endeavour is in partnership with National Museum.
