I had heard from a source that the Mandaluyong City Bahay Pag-asa was one of the better run places, and I was hoping to see for myself what it was like. When I set out to visit Mandaluyong City’s Bahay Pag-asa, I thought I would be writing a straightforward news report. He had been at the halfway house for three weeks at that point, after he was caught using drugs. ADVERTISEMENTI’m not sure if that story was my best but it was, for me, one of my most important. It validated my decision to return to the kind of reporting that I am doing now, the kind that sheds light on stories like Janmark’s.
