Election............. An event that always makes its way in becoming the talk of the town. Poster
s of Politicians, things like t-shirt and caps with their names and faces on it, political ads, and campaigning here and there are always an evident of how important is the election here in the Philippines. This marks how politicians endorse themselves so that they could bag the votes of the people.
However, associated with election is VIOLENCE. This is very inevitable and it seemed like it has already reserved a place during election time. A terrible act of desperation, yet an UNDENIABLE ACT.....
Has election lowered the dignity and morality of people? Has it penetrated their minds and drive them to do something SELFISH, GREEDY, RUTHLESS and most of all BRUTAL? These questions run through our minds every time election period starts. For what is happening now, we are almost convinced that people of great ambitions would risk their morality and dignity in exchange for a glorious name.
The recent MAGUINDANAO MASSACRE, an obvious display of political violence. A desperate act which took the lives of many innocent people. THese people were just victims of how dirty the election can be.
These violence should STOP!!! This becomes a huge THREATto our nation and a great shame for us FILIPINOs. An election that should have been our HOPE for a better country becomes a competition that degrades our soceity. It alters PEACE and ORDER.
TO YOU WHAT IS ELECTION????
A HOPE???? OR A THREAT???

yeah!!! election is really fast approaching, and yet the case about the ampatuan still remains a big question to us. you are right it may brought us change a hope for progress and a threat for all of us. I just do hope we may able to solve the case for the justice of the journalists.
ReplyDeleteang masasabi ko ay marumi ang election dito sa pilipinas dahil rampant ang vote buying kahit saan. alam naman natin na kinakailangan din ito sa mga pulitiko dahil kapag wala kang ibinigay at ikaw ay isang mabait na pulitiko..sigurong..maliit lmang ang lamang ng klaban sayo. pero pra sa mga masasamng pulitiko...katulad na lamng sa nangyaring massacre sa maguindanao na ngayon ay sentro ng mga balita kahit saan. political will ang nangingibabaw dito dahil sa kanilang pag aasam na maghari sa buong lugar. sana ay merong hustisya para sa mga nadamay sa karumaldumal na pangyayaring yaon.
ReplyDeleteworst happenings just before the 2010 election.. tskk! all of those were true enough for us to realize! as a citizen in this developing country, im very much hoping for a clean upcoming 2010 election!:D -dc1bstudent-
ReplyDeleteintead of being a hope for our nation, election is becoming a threat for us....i hope that this coming HALALAN 2010 will be peaceful enough for us to relieve from the pain we've bear particularly the Maguindanao Massacre which has been noted to be the most brutal election related violence ever had in the Philippines....

ReplyDeletedahil marami nang tumatakbong nandadaya..
kahit kunti ay wala nang respeto.
meron ding mga taong nagpapabili ng boto.
kaya't kailangang tayong mga pilipino ay magtulungan para wala ng mga mandadayang politicians.
election aye?? one of the rising problems of the society..
ReplyDeletewe know already that Philippines is one of the fast growing countries in our nation. It is also one of the fast growing countries that is keen to violence during election day.
Its good that the two of you are very open to what Philippines is up to right now..
cheers for the both of you :)
election is a threat, i should say.
ReplyDeletewhy would other politicians buy votes and even doing violence just to win? its a shame for us filipinos, right?. they are not looking for the betterness of our nation but for the sake of their own wealth and position to be someone.We should do something new in 2010 election...
-nice one. -archipadz-
this election is really putting us unto test . i mean all of the candidates are not deserving to be in the position.. i hope that the automation of votes will lessen the biases in the election. its really ironic , how we boast ourselves to other people i mean other country that we are conservative and loving when the truth is people are so liberal in their thoughts and actions..
ReplyDeletethe morality in this country is getting really low.. high rates of early parenthood. killings everywhere... saying bad things to people and also owning the cashbin of this poor country..
what should we do then? as youth today .. what can we do to save our generation from massive destruction?!..
Think..
its not the end.. we cam still regain our great years..
dont act cool, just act proper :))
ngayon mas mapapadali na ang pagboto dahil ginagamitan na ito ng computer.,. pero ang tanong ngayon.,. ang mga mangdadaya bang mga politicians ay makakapagdaya pa bah kung gagamitin natin ito? yan ang tanong ko na gusto kong sagutin mo.,.
ReplyDeleteGod!!! for heavens sake aren't they tired of pushing things intobad resolutions. they must really do admit that indeed all of needs to vote still they must respect our privacy as well as our right to vote the one really deserving. but do others prefer to vote the owerful one, it is simply because they were being threthen, and so we must really do something about it. based on experience I was raised in a very suffisticated place. I was not able to enjoy my childhood days, because my father is a well known politician in our place and so, I couldn't easily play if I want. Actually I don't have freedom and what's worse is that I could hardly find my real friends since almost all I've meet are just trying to use me, my kindness, my beauty, my not so but my ideas and thoughts, and especially my money and power. As of now I only have two best and close friends, because they really stayed with me whatever I do and whatever hardships I take they're always at my side. So i think this is a wake up call for all of us. Let us stop unjustice..... please!
ReplyDelete@ ryan: we do think oO mkakapandaya parin kasi hindi naman ibig sabihin na automated na siya walang pandarayang mangyayari. Kasi let's all face the thruth na hindi lang naman sa panahon ng eleksyon nangyayari and dayaan at kahit naman hindi pa eleksyon nangyayari na yon, tulad nang vote buying, or even the political killings. So kahit ano pang proseso ang gamitin natin kung hindi naman tayo nagtutulungan at kung patuloy paring sinusunod nang mga politician ang nakagawiang way ng pamumulitika, pwes masasabi kung walang silbi ang ating mga pakikibaka dahil parehas parin ang mangyayari, wala paring pagbabagong magaganap. Hiling ko lang sana ay maisaisip ito nang mga pulitiko, ihinto na sana ang maruming pultika.
