change...

today our country commemorates the ever famous edsa revolution, way back in 1986 millions of filipinos went to the streets to fight graft and corruption, abuses in government and to regain democracy which lead to the downfall of the marcos dictatorship... today people is out in the streets again not in celebration but rather to continue the struggle for real change... just like what happened in 2001 (edsa 2)when people thought of replacing the duly elected president and handed the power to a new government that today is known to be worst than the previous administration... allegations over allegations but yet majority of the people seems not to care anymore, maybe the idea of all politicians are all the same have hit filipinos so hard and now prefers to work for survival, maybe leave the country for a better future in other countries... but is it right?... as citizens we are bound to protect and to keep this nation going, it is our obligation and each one of us must act when we are called upon to protect this rights... let us not lose hope but rather keep on believing, as what we lasallians says, let us the start the change we want to see... peace!

Merry Christmas Everyone!

Meeting my co-leads from the my own country and the rest of the world is an experience one would appreciate a lot, basically lea

Change is Coming!

After a much heated campaigns the election fever are almost finally over. Pending the final canvassing of votes by the congress the people have chosen a new leader to rule the country for the next 6 years. The presumptive president is a mayor from a city down south of the Philippines known for his iron fisted style of government. What makes this election interesting is the process on how people now choose their leaders. Traditionally, we oath to go for people with great experience, plans, smart and proper character and attitude someone we normally call 'honorable'. This election changed that idea, people now go for leaders with real simple plans to solve recurring problems in the society, strong work portfolio to showcase their capability to govern and implement real solutions. Good luck to the newly elected president, I wish you well in your quest to change this country into something everyone wish it should be. Peace!
