As the Zamboanga City standoff enters its fifth day, soldiers and policemen on the ground now have to contend with a new challenge that face them in Zamboanga aside from the bullets and bombs of the Moro rebels they are fighting – hunger and running out of ammunition to fight with. Eyrhil Tom Bulahan, a resident of Zone 4 barangay veterans in Zamboanga, knows the plight of the soldiers fighting in Zamboanga’s streets too well. He narrates the plight of government soldiers in one of the photos he took and shared through social network site Facebook during the opening days of the Zamboanga standoff. In the photo, he narrates how a soldier approached him and asked him in the local dialect if they had any leftover rice for them as they had run out of food and had not eaten since early that morning. mb.ph/hungry-soldiers-fighting-in-zamboaga-resort-to-begging/
