Good BBC programme, here:

About 19 / 20 minutes in, on remedies, is quite alarming. Pampa Regla to control pregnancies. Right outside the church.....

So, lets say the bill gets passed with or without the church's blessing...you you honestly think the Philippine population are going start popping the birth pills and the guys gonna start wearing condoms at will?

I really dont think so....these anti contraception measures run deep in there minds...its been known for women to completely give intercou a miss rather than take contraceptives measures..no goverment bill is gonna change this mindset overnight..even over decades

It isnt just about that. It is also about education and raising awareness. Sure it wont happen overnight.

That church porch is actually well known as the place to go to for "medicines to regulate menstruation". It's the Church of the Black Nazarene in Quiapo.
