On Twitter, a user with handle name @j3dph told her: “Comment naman Pia sa Community Pantry dito sa pinas, what you think?.”

To which she replied: “Thanks for asking me this! I took some time to really think about it and really understand better what we are faced with as a nation. For me, the community pantry is a really good initiative. Yet again, it is proof of the undying spirit of Bayanihan. However, I also understand.”
