I've heard that President Benigno Aquino III wants to seek a second term, which is somehow rare in Filipino Presidential election in the post-Marcos regime. So why i am criticizing this move? His parents were even against a second term. Well, Gloria Macapagal Arroyo did it with some clean loopholes as she succeeded from Vice President to President and got a fresh 6 Year term in 2004. How about Noynoy? Is he damn STUPID that his parents were even against longer terms. Even i am against a longer term. Trying to be above Ferdinand Marcos or much worse than him is what Noynoy could be having.
Remember the Marcos years? His mistakes was his cronies and Imelda. But is it just corruption?
No! He build a lot from hospitals to bridges, trying to catch up against the other Asian countries like Japan, Taiwan, Singapore and South Korea. There was discipline and order back then. When People Power came, and there goes all economic and social success.
Where is the change everyone is expecting? Prosperity? Simple answer. Prosperity kicked for the Cojuangcos, Lopez, Tan and other rich families. How about the poor people? They lay wasted by the irresponsible politicians that just want to fight for power and not for what the people need and want for their lives. Is this the extinction of my country as China slowly invades it?
