Random Note: Politicians/Politics and Diapers have the same in common, and that is both must be changed regulary and for the same reason... ;]
In the status quo, the government of this Godforsaken country (according to pabs) is infested by one significant virus that is spreading an epidemic to the society of this country. That virus, (worst than a computer virus, but functions as the same) is so called the corruption virus. This virus allegedly started it's menace to the society by 1946 during the post-world war II era when help from other countries is still abundant and the heads of state are vulnerable to widespread corruption. The virus started in a small modus operandi, then evolved to a widespread concern, and developed to plague. By now, this virus, is still wreaking havoc to the society dismantling unity and corrupting minds, and until now, anti-virus software is still far from realization. But people, until when should we remain blind, deaf, and mute to the cries of this country? Until when? Until everything is gone? So now we think, we think of a solution, the solution that I will slowly narrate below on what I think is good for the society, looking on the vantage point of the mass...
At the present situation of this country, civil unrest is dominant in the hearts of the masses especially when a fellow thomasian namely "Rodolfo "Jun" Lozada" surfaced in national television to exploit the annomalies allegedly commited by the government. His revelations again called for mass rallies and chants of the resignation of the present ruler of the state, namely, Gloria Macapagal Arroyo. Then I quote:
"For the many complaints, for the numerous scams, for the countless controversies she and her stalwarts have embattled, has there any reason or case considered more magnanimous, more pungent and formidable than the manner President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo clung
unto her seat?
If former President Corazon Aquino regime had coup d'état for breakfast, President Arroyo is now enjoying impeachment complaints for dessert."
-Bobongpinoy
As we can see, the masses are out there, rallying, without looking at the better picture, they look like stupid mammals, for they kept on shouting "Gloria resign" without even looking into the bigger picture. Who placed her there in the first place? The people placed her there without even looking after her credibility, they just need a so called "panakip butas" for the dethronement of the former president Erap. Sheezzz, I cannot understand (yet) these peolpe, I haven't seen a pax filipina from the time of Ramon Magsaysay, and will not see again until i die if we do not work now to cleanse this land. Given the fact that the government is not the one to be blamed greatly (only partial) for the situation here in the Philippines, for the people of this country is to be blamed the most. So how do we ammend this situation? Lets start with the current issue.
Given the fact that Gloria will step down, or rather be ousted in a civil revolt, who will replace the old lad?
Think of someone then, I think none... (me?), maybe in the near future *evil laugh*. Given you the answer to my preceeding question, let me proceed to the next.
Did anyone succeed as a Good leader?
I think none, why so? In the past few years of inhabiting this society, I haven't seen any changes to the society of this country. Only few, and I can enumerate them as far as I can remember in my memory lane.
-
Oil Price
-
Dollar exchange rate
-
Prices of Commodities
-
And Public Leaders
After those, none... So moving on, as I stated, the theater in the Philippines is the same. Daily issues like impeachment, corruption, plunder, scams, corrupt political personalities, and bad and "evil" leaders. These issues have been more or like or even common as the morning breakfast of the Filipino people like tuyo, daing, noodles, and sinangag and there all popular. As filipinos partake them as a part of their everyay life, that they "enjoy"
So what's the solution?
So as I can see, the change of leaders in not the best possible option of making this county stable in the status quo. But the best solution that we can think of runs down in two points that are correlated with each other. Point one: The system of government and Point two: People's discipline. As we can see, even if we change our leaders often, thew will still commit the same mistakes because of the lapses of the government sysyem. EDSA 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6... and so on will not make the society better but it is the form of government or the system of government that we should focus on.
Point One: Form of Government:
So what i think is the better form of government? Federal Republic.. Why so, it is a better system that what do we have today and for better explaination:
refer to: www.bukidnon.gov.ph/Abueva%20Federalism.ppt
Tinatamad na q magsulat eh.
Point two: People's Discipline
But the stated point above, will neve be envisioned if the people lacks discipline. Of course people's discipline are the most important aspect of the society, but how should we apply it, well of course, not instantly, but gradually, because an instant application of the matter would lead to mass civil disorder. Let them slowly adapt to the discipline applied in the society. Let us take sydney, australia (federal commonwealth), NY, NY (federal republic), and Singapore as our examples, all cities employed gradual discipline among inhabitants and then look at the effects.... Near utopia...
Point one combined with point two = near utopia then that would b a better society... So no more gloria resign people... Let's not start chanting the changes in the heads of state but let's start with ourselves... =]
And with that, I rest my case...
TBHT a federal form of government should be made possible in this country...
