Think of a politician caught stealing public funds who still runs for office. Or someone who cheats on their partner and blames the partner for it. Sila yung mga taong "kapal ng mukha" is an understatement. They have zero self-respect and will do anything, no matter how low, for personal gain.
From 'wala' (none, without) + 'dangal' (honor, dignity).
