A boy carries a stack of used cardboard boxes in a public market in Angono, Rizal. The problem of child labor in the country is rife, complex and is directly attributed to poverty.

    its time for noynoy to wand his magic. why charge toll fees for filipinos if the road is theirs. in other countries there is no toll fee and the road is good. if noynoy is the president who can remove toll fees, it will reduce poverty.
