EN: to help
The OG 'bayanihan' spirit in verb form. This is what you do when your friend is moving apartments, or when your officemate is drowning in deadlines. It’s a simple act of kindness, but sometimes people say 'Huwag kang mag-alala, tutulong ako,' then they just watch you suffer. That's called 'drawing'.
