Emata: The future of the Philippines

Friday, January 27, 2012

THE economy of the country is quite bad and unless the present administration hit the right direction, chances are, we dive to the lowest level of poverty. So many problems that have been there remained untouched and still the things that trouble us so much. All these things seem neglected because what is happening now is the excessive exercise of political bickering, hatred and failures.

President Noynoy Aquino should form a team to handle his political activities with his enemies and everyone who belongs to the opposite side of the fence. Somebody should take charge of firing oppositionists in the last elections and everyone he hates so much. This can be handled by someone not the president himself. Political bickerings are things that never end despite the passing of time. It will go on for years and no end in sight.

Have something to report? Tell us in text, photos or videos.

Pres. Aquino should focus himself on the real problems of the country like the ever increasing unemployment problem, the lack of agricultural productions, the general aspect of the economy, foreign affairs like import and export of things badly needed in the country, the food, shelters, medicines and education of the people in the provinces and hinterlands areas.

It is plain politics and no other. It appears that the direction of the country is going nowhere and this is precisely the reason why it does not look good for the country. People are divided and so with their loyalty. Instead of uniting people, we scatter them in different places.

What is happening now is continuous firing of government executives who are political enemies of the present administration. Sending people to jail especially those who are identified with the side of the past regime. Running after those who belong to other political groups. Naturally, the problem of the economy and other major ones are forgotten and things go upside down.

The president should lead this country with friendship, honor and integrity. He must forget politics and proceed on a direction needed by the citizens. He must not show hatred towards anyone and instead let reconciliation prevail. In this way, people will look at him as an honorable leader and deserving of honor and respect.

Why so many Filipinos are leaving the country? I wonder if our leaders and politicians ever asked themselves on this issue. Right now, people go out of the country to foreign lands to seek for works and to live there permanently. They seem to have lost their desires to live in our country. They go to places even if sometimes there are dangers in foreign lands. It is surprising. The reason is that they cannot be happy here if ever they can live with contentment.
