The Department of Tourism (DOT) is paying tribute to all frontliners serving amid the COVID-19 outbreak through a tear-jerking video titled “Smile.”
DOT pooled videos and photos depicting the spirit of kindness that Filipinos are showing one another during this time of a global pandemic.
It wrote, “Filipinos are known for their smiles. Even if we can't see the smiles behind the masks, their warmth can be felt in acts of compassion and kindness.”
“As we wait out the end of this challenging time, let us never forget to show the world who we truly are: a nation of kind, caring, and compassionate people. #WeHealAsOne”
The video made use of Ely Buendia's original composition and popularized by Eraserheads, “With A Smile” which was reinterpreted by Bea Lorenzo whose grandfather and father are both medical doctors.
