POLITICS

Politics –ideas and actions that are concerned with gaining power in a government.
In this coming May 2010, many politicians are running for different position in the government. We have President, Vice President, down to the local officials in the society. A lot of propaganda's is being prepared by each candidates, more enthusiastic ideas to win the vote of Filipino people and to have them elected in the position they want to. As Filipino citizens, we have the right to choose the best officials or the best candidates to sit down and serve the country.
Some of political strategies to gain the vote of people are using some banners streamers of their propaganda's in the streets, make songs including their beautiful names, printing fliers to give to the people. Some other politician, donate amount to a certain charity and use even children in the commercial in Television, they have the so called technique to fight, to win the vote of Filipino people.
In my own opinion, Politics is a form of having a position without knowing the responsibilities on how to be a good leader and a role model to our countrymen.
As what I’ve observed politics here in the Philippines is even worst than the other country, Politician want position or power to be well-known personalities in the country, Why should I say this: First, politicians must be a graduate of this, politicians must possess good deed to others, politician is strong and kind hearted man, politician should be transparent to the environment, politicians should be, should be, should be and so on…….. politicians should help some charities.
However, even Filipino people don’t even know how to choose the right leaders for them,, I also considered my self before when I was at my teenage life,, I just follow my parents if what or who’s candidate we want to vote,, what my parents told me is to vote this person, so I did… and were oblige of it.
Went back home in my hometown, I remember that I was an angel of a certain candidate, we are performers under his candidacy… so every time we went to other town of our province we have to perform a dance or song after the candidates states their propagandas on how they will manage the province if they vote him….
When I was here in Manila, I’ve been so transparent to each things happening in the country, I’ve also noticed that life in manila is worth challenging than my hometown… Manila is worst than what I‘ve expected…. I thought that manila is place where you could say ……….. It’s a place where I could be settled,
So the relationship of this to the leaders is ,,, How could they handle a government if they didn’t realized the very small things happening in the country,,,, When the politicians get their position after a few month they already forgot the promises, the good deeds that they were going to do if they win,, the good changes of the society,,, I’ve a lot of political candidates in television,, guess what if the only criteria to be elected in the government is the different right ups,,, propagandas, plan of each candidate,, 100% a lot of candidate will get the first slot of it.
Promises are said to be broken,,,,, Filipinos is already wasting time to listen and wait to those promises,, if they were good, there’s no Filipinos who are suffering poverty, no more street children, no people who are doing illegal to survive,, I’m not blaming to those officials who are in the position it just that I want to emphasize, if your not a good follower your not deserving to be one of the leaders of the society..
As a transparent person,, We can’t blame this only to politicians, we as an ordinary people of this country should start, the changes which were looking for a decades…. In a simple way we could be good leaders as well. How!!!!!!
• In school if you a president of the class or club in different subject. You have to know what are your responsibilities, how to handle your member, how to treat them as your followers and how to be respect by your classmate.
• At home,, if your parents is not around and you’re left by four siblings, even at your age you could gain respect from them, they will treat you as your parents.
• At the office, you have to know careful and work hard to gain respect as well from colleagues, even from Bosses.
• In the street, if you could help a person who really needs a help, if you could just keep your candy wrappers or cigarette buds, if you’re following streets rules.
• Listen to the others opinion or ideas cause not of the time that your opinion should be always impose.
• Never use people to be popular and to be well-known person.
• Don’t make a move if your not ready of its outcome..
• Decide what the right is and set aside the negative act.
These are only an example of becoming a good leader and yet this is only common and small things but its true….. I believe in the saying that,, a one big fire comes from a small one…..
I hope readers will like this small insight and feeling about what is going on right now in our country…..
