Ikaw ba naman e kung campo ng nagpapatay sa father mo yung nangailangan ng tulong will you be in a rush?
Oo, kasi ang nakalimutan ng mga politicians na iyan, they have an obligation to the people. In a tragic incident like this, lives were at stake. Hindi purkit area ni Romualdez, magdi-dilly dally ka. Just goes to show how evil Philippines politics are.
Let's stop the blame.
You cannot make people stop criticizing. Kasi kahit naman nangyari yung tsunami sa Thailand, they did not see such blatant kat*ngahan, inefficiencies and insensitivity and disservice to its countrymen. Kapantay lang naman siguro natin ang Thailand at hindi naman tayo stone age era. The world was just surprised to see Philippines na maraming malls and all walang capability to save his citizens in dire need of life and death situation. And it is not that we are expecting the government to stop Yolanda, but it is the reaction of the aftermath.
Atleast Anderson Cooper did something at napahiya ang ating gobyerno at biglang kumilos. We should not be happy about this because we are part of the Philippines.
I don't think the word is happy. I think this issue about our government's inefficiency is just beyond me. I am angry and have been angry with our government's betrayal and disservice. And I am glad, yes glad, hindi naman rejoicingly happy, pero I am glad that someone outside of the Philippines saw this. Sana nga may documentary kung gaano kabaho ang Phil politics para matablan naman ng kahihiyan ang mga politicians na iyan. Sugapa talaga sila. Gahaman. Hindi ako makaisip pa ng word for them, it is beyond garapal sugapa at gahaman eh.
And the real problem is? Being a citizen of that country just makes me feel the "victim" kasi hindi ko maipaglaban ang rights ko at ang rights ng mga nakikita kong hindi matulungan ng gobyerno pero karapat dapat tulungan. Tama nga ginawa nung mga relatives ng massacre ng Maguindanao. Dapat lang sampahan ng kaso ang Phil government.
Each citizen is simply defenseless from the government's abuses and disservice. Kaya kung gusto mo lumaban, one has to be a member of a powerful clan, at kayo magsabong. Just like how these Romualdez'/Marcoses pit against the Aquinos.
I just hope that what really happened will make the Filipino's wiser in the next election kung sino ba talaga ang iluluklok nila sa pwesto. Hindi yung porke't sikat e panalo na.
Sis, sana nga. Kaso for me it is not just the people you vote for. You have to make sure also that the padrino system eh mawala. The whole system na bulok ang ipagdasal mo na mabuwag. It takes a superhero to do this. Kaya good luck.
And sa nakikita ko nga, a bit ironic ang post na ito. One minute you would say walang sisihan. Problema kasi kung wala kang sinisisi ibig sabihin, nothing needs to change kasi everything is in order. Pero at the same time, be wiser to vote.
Hindi naman kasi pwede lahat isisi na lang parati sa gobyerno eh! Kaya nga pinagpapatuloy na lang ng iba gumawa ng paraan para makatulong sa iba lalo na yung mga pagkukulang ng gobyerno.
Then should we praise the government? ano ang kelangan gawin sa kat*ngahan nila kahit na collect sila ng collect ng taxes na napupunta lang sa bulsa ng ilan. Tapos pagdating sa may nangangailangan, ikaw pa may utang na loob sa kanila kung tulungan ka nila?
So you are saying forever, you will pay taxes. Forever, you will get nothing. And forever, being a private citizen, we should dedicate helping our co-citizens kasi forever walang silbi ang gobyerno natin?
Sis, I always believe na nasa sa atin ang gawa. Hindi mo puede iasa ang lahat sa gobyerno. I think in situations where nakapagbigay na ang gobyerno ng basics sayo, kelangan ka na magtrabaho on your own at di lang umasa sa dole outs. Pero naman, ang gobyerno gawin naman nila ang minimum, please. For instances as tragic as this, where towns were totally wiped out, hindi parin sila gagalaw? di man lang sila magambala ng konsyensya nila? nakakakain pa sila at nakakatulog mabuti?
I would rather choose na maging hopeful and positive sa ikauunlad ng bansa kasama na dyan yung system sa government rather than complaining much dahil sa totoo lang nakakasakit sa ulo at nakakayamot kung sasama pa ako sa walang katapusang reklamo.
kasi siguro ang mga reklamo is not for the sake para lang may maireklamo. galing sila sa puso, sa galit, sa experience.
I would compare this situation with a marriage. Kung continuously maraming kabit ang asawa mo, some wives would just choose to keep mum about it and look the other way. Maybe this is your stance kasi feeling ng wife wala din naman sya talagang magagawa at pinili mo pakasalan ang philandering husband mo (pinili mo sa pagboto ang mga public officials). And til death do you part (end of the world nalang kayo maghihiwalay).
But there are some wives who just cannot accept the philandering husband's crap. Kung makakawala ka, umalis ka na sa marriage (thus migrate to another country). Kung wala kang choice, lalaban ka while you are still standing. And this is what some people do, complain and demand action from the government, not just accept its crap.
If you believe that there is competent government official that must be elected some other time eh di it is now time for you to encourage other people to vote for that competent para naman sa next disaster hindi na tayong mamroblema lahat.
Sis iyan nga ang problema. There are people who believe na WALANG competent na government official. So paano? While there are some people AKALA nila ok yung binoto nila and sa mga nakikita after ng election, hindi pala. Paulit ulit nalang eh. Nakakarindi na.
