Ang pagboto ay hindi lamang isang karapatan bagkus isa ring obligasyon at responsibilidad.

 


·        Ang kakayahan bumoto ay isang karapatan ng bawat mamayang pilipino na piliin ang leader na kanilang nais. Isa itong karapatan na walang sino man ang dapat kumuha o mang-abuso rito. Subalit ang pagboto ito man ay ating obligasyon at karapatan, ito rin ay isa sa ating pinakamalaking responsibilidad bilang isang Pilipino. Nasa ating mga kamay ang kinabukasan ng ating bansa sapagkat nasa ating mga palad ang kapangyarihan na mag-luklok sa lider na ating tinatamasa. Pero sa desisyon na ating gagawin sa pagpili ng ating mga susunod na mga mamumuno. Marapat nating isaisip at pagpilian ng mabuti ang ating iboboto. Ito bang kandidatong ito ay tapat sa kanyang salita magpakailanman? Ito bang kandidatong ito ay may prinsipyo at may takot sa Diyos? At ito bang kandidatong ito ay magiging tapat at inaangat ang lahat kapag siya ay naluklok? Maging mausisa sa pagpili ng mga susunod ng lider ng bayan sapagkat kung ano man ang kanilang mga gagawin at desisyon para sa kinabukasan. Siguradong sigurado na damay damay tayong lahat. Tulad ng pag-iisang dibdib ng dalawang umiirog, ang pagboto ay isang paninindigan para sa matagal na panahon ng serbisyo sa hirap man o ginhawa tayo ay nandirito. Maging matalinong botante aking kababayan, huwag ka maging isang inutil na huwad, huwag magpaloko at maging matalino, bumoto ka ng tapat sa puso mo.

THE PHILOSOPHY OF THE FILIPINO DEMOCRACY | By: Lourenzo Manimtim

  THE PHILOSOPHY OF THE FILIPINO DEMOCRACY   By: Lourenzo Manimtim The state of the nation depends on states of citizens, and a nation is governed by leaders and the leaders are elected by the citizens. It is not a very big surprise to see usual the political situation of the Philippines, shown in the media are the rampant cases of corruption, incompetence of leaders, violence, and greed.   Most politicians operate by their own interests, primarily the traditional politicians, the large and corrupt big political families that rule the power and government in our country. And many of these families are fat dynasties, with their greed of power and wealth they leech and drain the country of its resources. But aside from the fat dynasties, there also other ordinary politicians that use their power for their own interests. But amidst the current situation we cannot take for granted that there are also good politicians that loyally serves and loves their country and the socie...

The State of Rights and Democracy in the Strongman’s War on Drugs

  The State of Rights and Democracy in the Strongman’s War on Drugs A Reflection Paper by Lourenzo Manimtim               “If I make it to the presidential palace, I will do just what I did as mayor. You drug pushers, holdup men, and do-nothings, you better get out because I'll kill you.” (Human Rights Watch, Conde, 2017)             On May 9, 2016, the former president said those words beginning the herald of the campaign against illegal drugs— The “War on Drugs”. Not too long since words were spoken death and misery have spiked in the country in the first six (6) months of his presidency— the administration has led to an unprecedented number of killings (Rapper, 2016). Many people were killed, and many were slain in this bloody and brutal war. Reminiscence of this wretched memory still lingers in the minds of the people. The rampant cases and detrimental brea...
