Duterte says ‘Magsayawan na lang tayo’ during speech regarding the COVID-19 situation in the Philippines
President Rodrigo Duterte says this line during his speech on the night of March 12 regarding the COVID-19 situation, “Magsayawan na lang tayo“.
Because of this, several netizens recalled the movie Temptation Island, based on the article from Philippine Entertainment Portal. The first version of the said movie was released back in the 1980s while the second one was released in 2011.
The latter version featured Heart Evangelista, Lovi Poe, Marian Rivera, and Solenn Heussaff. Their characters are beauty queens who were trapped in a deserted island after their sea vessel capsized.
One of the most memorable scenes in the movie was when the four ladies danced in the middle of a desert and under the scorching heat of the sun. Solenn’s character said, “Buti nga may sounds tayo, e,” and the character of Lovi answered, “Well, of course. I have everything.”
