BORACAY ISLAND, Aklan — For the next six months, Josephine Sastre would have to rely on her son for support. “I will just have to rely on the income of my son who is driving a motorcycle here in Malay. She grew up in Boracay and had witnessed how the island had slowly fallen victim to overcommercialization. SurvivalWhile she agrees with the temporary closure of Boracay, Sastre is worried how they will survive solely on the income of her son, whose wife is pregnant. What do you think will happen to us now because I still have a grandson to send to school?” Sastre said.
