12th Day Of Invasion In Zamboanga City

My Parents and my Place

Where you can see the entrance to our compound. Where all my sibling 

Gathered together. The last time that we all met was last June 2009.

That is our last smile of our father together with his ten children

And grand children. Our last reunion. Now, no place for my nieces

And nephews to rest, to study, and to live peacefully. I cannot imagine 

The trauma they are suffering now, fears of another attack will come.

Our house still standing in this picture while the white smoke starting to

Come out from the corner. The green roof beside our gate on the right side

Of our compound is the hall and classroom for the kids (Imaus).

Funded from Italy priest. 

Here you can see the house has gone. It is more than a week now,

But my heart is still in pain and tears are still there. 

Keep asking WHY this happened? to whom should I blame.

Until today I could not accept that our house was burned.

This is the entrance of our residence, where the house built by my father

Adriano Yosores Sr, together with my brother Arden Argeo "BOY" Yosores

Who is working as architect, electrical, and civil engineer. Why I said so.

Because he does the plan of our house and approved by my father, the 

Wiring of electrical outlet, and working the house as carpenter.

Everything he does the most difficult job that I cannot imagine.

As Boyet said; A concept gate and wall by our world war 2 veteran-hero

Adriano V. Yosores, now background concept for our

Zamboanga Siege Hero... May his legacy lives....

After having gun fire yesterday between the govt. forces and
Moro National Liberation Front (MNLF).

Alhamdulillah! We are thankful to Allah (SWT), the war is almost over,
Ins Sha Allah we still have home to live in, the place safe for our children.

As we keep updating from the RMN news from Jimmy Villaflores,
Still there are some rebels hiding inside in our area, the scout ranger, and
The Philippine Army keep checking if they are still being hostage
Inside in Martha Drive, while Jimmy delivering news what is
Happening inside they hear some gun shot again.

According to Jimmy, at the back of Nonong Guingona's house
towards left, all the houses got burned until the housing project before
The land owned by late Ramon Evangelista.
Totally emptied from the entrance of Martha Drive.

Almost all the houses burned, we still don't know if
Our house is included, In Sha Allah, Allah (SWT)
Keep our house safe from fire,
Where the MNLF camp in Imauz building it is in our
Left side from the entrance of our house.
Regarding from the hostage who able to run out
From the MNLF, they are still holding some hostages and
One of them are West family's, hoping for them to

8th Days of Invasion

Being a Filipino I love my Country, my City, My Hometown.

Where I'm belong to the YOSORES CLAN.

I love my neighbors, my friends where I grow up, we are like brothers, and 

sisters as one family sharing each other, and love one another.

Mabuhay Tayong Lahat

In this picture above, (Bagets) we are all single, but now some died, some are married,

And some are not, and some are successful in their profession.

How I wish we could go back to our life before.

We are all believing the faith of Roman Catholic.

The happiest moment we had as family. 

I used to dream this place, I have no idea what it mean.

But now I realized and trying to figure out those dream I had.

That is something to happen in this area, I saw darkness from this place

I'm running toward Santa Barbara, Lustre Street then toward our home

Martha Drive. 

The smoke where you can see above the sky, this come from
Santa Barbara, on the right side building my college school,
Southern City Colleges where I studies BSC (Accounting Major).

7th Days of Invasion

The government negotiating what to do, we don't know what their

Meeting all about. We all the relatives keep waiting the result but,

Till when do we need to wait? we could not wait, we want the 

Positive result, we all want to go home to have full rest.  

Where you can see the Samal (thribe of Muslim) they want also a
Resting place where their children could sleep good.

Now, you can see here in grandstand full of evacuees, they just
Put some tent for them to have a place to rest.
I remember when I'm in my Elementary School we used to
Practice how to prepare the tent for emergency.
This tent they have remind me as a girls scout leader during those days.

6th Day of Invasion In Zamboanga City

The mayor wants to finish.. 

Us, the resident and relatives of the victims want it to end very soon too. 

The children wants go home, to sleep in the bed, to play and chat to their other relatives.

The photo here shows the fire from Santa Catalina, Santa Barbara,

Rio Hondo and  Mariki

It is really a scary time. We, the family, keep on calling our relatives

How they will cope up with the situation, I know it's not easy.

The way they suffer right now. 

We keep on praying to save our house from the fire, my relatives from the MNLF.
