Life is good, all the time? NOT ANYMORE for Sen. Ronald "Bato" dela Rosa.

Sen. Ronald "Bato" dela Rosa got his plot twist a day after his celebratory statement online

On Tuesday, May 26, before the online Senate session ends, the Senators are already bidding their goodbyes when dela Rosa was heard telling his colleagues enthusiastically, "Ang sarap ng buhay. Sarap ng buhay. Ganito na lang tayo palagi ha,"

Many people on social media slammed his insensitive statement knowing that the country is in a difficult time for two months already.

What makes this so enraging is that Bato had the audacity to tease us with something we already know-- na ang sarap ng buhay ng mga hintay-sweldo pero nganga sa trabaho.

His stressing the shameful obvious more than paying attention to people's silenced grievances is corruption. https://t.co/kwFs9rzJyL

'Ang sarap ng buhay. Ganito na lang tayo palagi ha.'

- Bato Dela Rosa (after a senate session)

It's so easy to say na 'sana ganito nalang tayo palagi' when you don't have to worry about losing your job & not being able to feed your family ano?

This man reeks of privilege.

habang ang mamamayan ay di makaranas ng mass testing, nagugutom at nangangamba sa kinabukasang mayroon sila,

si bato, sarap na sarap at nagpapakasasa sa buhay.

In the recent Senate session happened on Wednesday, May 27. President of the senate, Sen. Vicente Sotto III, ordered dela Rosa to attend the session on June 1 at Senate Plenary Hall in flesh along with other Senators, Panfilo Lacson, Francis Tolentino, and Sherwin Gatchalian.

Senator Zubiri added, "Tama yon, Mr. President. Para statement niya pagkatapos would be, 'Mahirap na ang buhay kasi hanggang alas diyes na siya sa senado.'"

It's true, your lack of compassion and empathy will come back to bite you in the ass. What a plot twist Sen. dela Rosa got in a span of 24 hours!
