I lost my temper yesterday while doing a transaction on an ATM after a lady who can't wait to have her turn started to complain that I'm taking too long doing my transaction, got really pissed but I'm better now... Can somebody like Nicanor Perlas or JC Delos Reyes win the presidency? Seriously... The campaign period started for the national positions last Monday and the Comelec started handling decisions for electoral protest filed after the 2004 elections, it took them almost 3 years to do that and as expected those who are aligned with the Glueria administration won the election not through the poll but inside the Comelec doors... Can you imagine a priest turned governor is now a cheater, yes, that's what the Comelec wants us to believe... Now, I really doubt the capability of the Comelec to provide a clean and honest election, with the full election automation on track and failures during the field test, I wonder now what will happen during the day of the election on May... Failure of election??... peace!
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!
