"Ang plano kong ipalit ay mga laro pang-edukasyon. Halimbawa, social studies na laro. So nananawagan ako sa mga programers ng ating bansa, gumawa po kayo ng kabutihan para sa taumbayan. Ang gawin niyo po, mga subject na laro. Sa gayon, magdamag man sila sa internet cafe, hindi lang sila naglalaro kundi nag-aaral ng leksiyon," Lopez said.

(I'd replace DOTA with educational games, like ones tackling social studies. So I appeal to the country's programers. Do something good for the country, make some educational games. This way, kids who spend so much time on computer shops could play and learn at the same time.)
