I’m a passive Filipino. I’m uber-ly guilty of that. Even as a student, I won’t know why my fellow students are rallying outside PLM. I just let them shout their hearts out while I linger on my safe corner (the GV stairs).
But this morning, as I was reading the yahoo news updates as part of my everyday morning ritual, I read the following:
“Whatever monies may have been spent for the appropriately
ceremonious conduct of her official trip abroad are but a tiny fraction of
the billions of pesos she has committed, and will continue to commit to
the alleviation of hunger and the amelioration of poverty in our country,”
-taken from Yahoo! News: Suarez: I normally host PGMA' s dinners
I only have one word for you Mr. Presidential Spokesperson Anthony Golez – KAPAL!
Where’s that billion pesos that you are claiming your boss provided for the Filipino people?!!
Have you been outside Malacanang?!!
You don’t need to go far Mr. Spokesperson. Just take a look at the squatters just outside Malacanang. Those kids who has nothing to eat and was begging for some coins to feed their younger siblings.
Do you know how many Filipino graduates are jobless until now?!! I always listen to this evening radio program where most of the DJ’s callers are Nursing graduates and board passers who call themselves “TAMBAY”! Are you even aware of that?!
How dare you say that 1 million fucking pesos are appropriately spent for that damn HEARTLESS DINNER (to borrow my friend’s term)?! You are getting into my nerves!!!
I won’t say too much anymore. I can’t refrain from using vulgar language. I do apologize to my readers. But this is so sad. Why are we letting this people use our money? I know they are using OUR money. I know it and it’s killing me. This is so so sad.
All points raised by Jerellt are so true. I was supposed to just share a link here since my arguments are just the same. But then I read the above. And I really can’t help but get so pissed off.
