tarnished integrity

Monday, May 28, 2007

Honesty is one of the qualities we want in a leader. [Of course! I've never heard of anybody who wants to have a dishonest leader.] Sadly, this is also one quality that most of our goverrnment leaders lack.

The May 14 election is a clear evidence how dreadfully disturbing is the state of our electoral process. The widespread and never ending vote buying and vote selling and outright election violations are enough evidence that there is something wrong with the electoral system. Something very very wrong that needs to be change and that change should be now.

The peoples votes are the peoples voice. The partial results of the canvassing especially in the senatorial race is an indication enough that the people badly wants the change. They gave their votes so their plight for a change would be heard. However there is a power that badly wants to silence the cries of the millions who are dissatisfied of the way the country is being steered. A power that desperately wants to choke the voice of the people by performing equally desperate attempts to remain in power and to secure their standing the governemnt.

Threats, violence, senseless killings and massive election frauds dominates the national scene.It is therefore surprising how the governemnt could easily and proudly claim that the election was successful and peaceful. PEaceful? How can it be peaceful when lives have been wasted?The Lanao special elections has been delayed twice but was thankfully pushed through on the third time but of course it has to be guarded by heavily armed soldiers.

If this is the kind of scene the government calls peaceful, I'm so scared to think of how they might define the word violent.

It is no wonder therfore that the Filipino people has no trust in their government. How can you trust these people when you have been witness to how desperate they want to be in the government seat. Of course, here in the Philippines being in position is an investment. That is probably one reason why a Filipino Politician would fight tooth and nail and even waste innocent lives just so he could place his butt in that dilapidated seat.

An honest election would mean honest leaders. Honest elections would result to citizens trusting their leaders and cooperating with them which would eventually mean development. However, with the kind of things happening right now, how could the Filipino people trust their leaders?How will they trust a leader whos proclamation is tarnished by vote buyings and massive cheatings?

Unless the people in the government heed the call of the nation, elections would always be a waste of time and money and real development would be bleak.In fact holding elections would only mean choosing rotten tomatoes in exchange of decaying ones.Becuase elections usually mean replacing corrupt officials with another set of equally corrupt officials, the only difference is the view.

Change would be slow though. We still have a long way to go to be able to achieve that change.Though the awareness that the people were showing is already a step towards it, the road to that cherished change would be long and rough, not to mention dangerous.

But we still hope…after all hoping is the only saftey option we can have.

Why have people unconsciously mutated into robots, living life as if they’re already dead? Why nike air max 90 cheaphas the general public become slaves to

their mind, blaming buy nike air max cheapothers for their suffering and not taking responsibility for their actions? They have become consumed cheap nike air max 95 by fear, and
