Meanwhile, Estrada earlier revealed that she will be joining the training to become an army reservist. Estrada announced this through a video, which received backlash from netizens because it featured the song “Ang Bagong Hukbong Bayan,” the anthem of the New People’s Army (NPA).
Estrada immediately issued an apology, saying it was not her intention to use the left-wing group’s song as background music to her recent milestone. EDV
