EN: act of ignoring; giving the silent treatment; apathy
This is the ultimate Pinoy passive-aggressive move. When your mom gives you the silent treatment after you come home late, that's pagsasawalang-kibo. It's ignoring a problem, a person, or a political issue, hoping it goes away. The national sport of 'bahala na' and 'dedma.'
From `pagsa-` + `walang-kibo` (motionless, silent).
A compound word that signifies a deliberate choice to be silent or inactive. It can imply indifference, disapproval, or strategic silence.
