Where Are We going?

After the Jose Pidal Case, then came the jueteng issues and inline with that, the gloriagate scam! Sigh, Philippine politics … such a world of unending turmoil!
After the President delivered her live speech last Monday evening; after the apology has been said and done, after the announcement that the First Gentleman will be leaving the country (voluntarily) for the rest of the President’s reign … I ask you now, what’s next?
Yesterday at around 6pm, there was an on-going rally along the circumference of the “Scout” Rotonda (QC). Then earlier when I was on my way home, I passed thru the stretch of University Ave. fronting City Mall (QC), again, another rally was held. There were banners and streamers which says “OUST GLORIA”. With these two rallies which I personally witnessed, I’m pretty sure there were a lot more rallies held and will be held sooner or later.
But what is it that you, I and the rest of the Filipino people really want? Who do you think is the best suited to be our president – Gloria, Noli, Loren, Susan (Roces) or Drilon? Well, whenever a snap election will be done, the senate president will be the acting president for a while, then who’s gonna run – Gloria vs FPJ, but he’s already dead … so does that mean his beloved Susan will be the one who’s gonna continue his so-called “legacy”, DANG!!! Whatta the %{#< !! Please don’t get me wrong here, I’m not so for Mrs. Macapagal – Arroyo, but I prefer her than Ms. Susan Roces.
The economic crisis that’s been happening to us right now, the Philippines being known as an UNSTABLE country and the land of the abu’s, is just an obvious proof that we have a bunch of WEAK leaders. What’s happening is that these so-called and/or self-acclaimed “leaders” first attends to their own personal interests before addressing the country’s and the peoples needs. The word service which they promised us all during their campaign, is now forgotten and I guess, possibly buried six feet underground. I’m sure, the first thing they did during their first few days in office is to “return the favor” to those people who helped them WIN the election! HAHH! Don’t fool me, I know how dirty the game of politics is!
Going back to the President’s speech last Monday evening, do you think she was still able to get the trust and the charisma of the people? After like telling the entire nation that’s she’s sorry for what she did, now she’s asking for unity and oneness with her. After delivering a speech before the Makati Business Club stating the volunteered exile of his husband, now she’s laying all her cards on the matters of (so-called) sacrifices she and her family has done and will be doing. Duhhh, how pathetic could she be?!! These kind of issues (sacrifices) should no longer be brought up, or it shoudn’t be announced at all … why should you, not unless she’s asking for the people to sympathize with her. DUHHH!!!??!!!
Now I ask you, where do you think are we going with all these chaos and turmoil at hand?! To the President, what is your next step, madam? Will there ever be a peaceful Philippines - where the leaders and the people are one? Sigh … I hope so …
