We can't deny that most of our politicians are corrupt. They run in politics just to gain wealth. It seems that politics becomes a business and it is not about public service. They can earn money through illegal transaction in the government. This is the sad face of Philippine politics. It is about time to change it. We need a president who have a gut and not afraid to overhaul our the bureaucratic system in our government or else our country would be totally wrecked.
I will vote Rodrigo Duterte this coming May 9. I believed that this leader is not a corrupt politician. His life is a good example for us, despite of his power he chose to live as a simple person. He is not living in a mansion and he don't have a luxury car. If he is a corrupt, maybe he have many properties right now. He have a beautiful hacienda like one of his opponents. He has a good record while he was serving as mayor and congressman in Davao. He has no graft case in Ombudsman.
Duterte is hates corruption. He promised that if he become a president, he will stop the corruption in government. I believed in him because once he told it, he will do it. For sure, he will terminate all the corrupt officials out there. His regime would not just a lip service, but it is built based on principle and integrity.
I also hope that in Duterte's leadership, good governanance would emerge. If you're an enemy of corruption, it has a domino effect into our society. The public funds would be used properly. It means that the services of the government would be improved and become sufficient. There is a tendency that the poverty could be lessen because they can create jobs with the help of private investors.
Maybe it is hard to achieve the things which is stated above. But if we have a leader like Duterte, he can do it. He don't haveindulgunce to any business thycoon or to the oligarchs that's why he is not afraid to implement an order that the people could benefit.

The Big Fight of our Next President
Here we go again, the election is coming very nearly. Every voter is looking for a true change, they are hoping that the next leader of our country would make a difference compare to our past presidents.
My vote is for Rodrigo Duterte, but there is no assurance if he would win in presidential election. Despite the fact that he us very popular nowadays, we can't deny that he has a lot of bashers also. In the end, the decision is in the hands of the majority of the voters. By the way, here are my suggestion, how the next president could improve the lives of the poor and how to fight social injustice.
1. The next president should fight poverty through giving an equal opportunity to our fellowmen. Implementing 4PS is just a temporary solution to the problem. It could not totally help them to out from poverty. What they need is livelihood. So, the next president should provide a lot of jobs to lessen the unemployment rate. He/She sould give a mandatory command to the DOLE and to the local government that they need to work hard to persuade investors to expand their business. Of course, the government should abolish the red tape to lessen the burden of those groups or individuals who wants to build a business.
2. The next president should also abolish the contractualization law. This is one of the reasons why we have a high unemployment rates. If you're ordinary worker, after five to six months you need to find a new job again. So, it is hard to survive in everyday, if your job is just a contractual basis. It is about time to amend this law to save the million Filipino people from hunger and depression. Not only that, the next president should also give attention to the system that once you're going older, the company will not hire you. The company should base their criteria not with the age, but to the experience of an applicant.
3. I believed that persuading foreign investors is not the only answer in terms of creating jobs. Of course, the government should also support our local businessmen. We have many dying industry here like the garment industry in Taytay or the shoe industry in Marikina. The president should help them to revive their business. The government should make a strong campaign against smuggling goods. So, the president needs to clean the Bureau of Costums which is known as the most corrupt from our government offices!
4. The next president should also deduct our taxes. According to the records, we are one of the countries around the globe that paying high taxes. It is okay if we know that our taxes gives us a better result. The worst is it only goes to the pockets of the corrupt government officials. If the next president could deduct our taxes, we will save a lot of money. Yes, we will not become rich from this; but at least, it will be a big help to our family. The workers would be inspired to work if they know that the government is doing something to lessen their burden.
5. In the issue of social injustice, the president needs to discipline within their ranks. We knew that there are many politicians, military and policemen who are using their power to abuse people. If the president has a strong political will, he will not let those people to oppress the rights of their fellow human beings. To do this, of course, the next president should make himself or herself as good example. If ever there is a victim of social injustice in this country; he/she not tolerate the usurpers or the criminals. Justice should be given to the family of the victims. So, we need a leader who is not afraid to anyone to stop the social injustice in our country.

Duterte on National Defense and Peace and Order
If Duterte become a president, I believed that he can strengthen our national defense by improving our military system. We knew that our soldiers are lack of armaments and their benefits are not enough to compensate their hard work. Once he improved the system, it would boost the moral of our soldiers.
Duterte is not relying to the promises of America that's why he is not supporting VFA. As an independent country, he believed that we should stand on our own. It's our responsibility to protect our country if there is a country that want to invade or oppress us. We also knew that China is bullying us right now because of our territory disputes with them. Duterte had already proclaim that he don't have intention to declare war against China because we are not ready for that. He wanted to sit and talk with them to solve the problem. It cannot be solved through a bloody war.
Yes, Duterte is a leader who is aiming peace despite the fact that he is known for being brave. If he become our president, he has a capability to negotiate with the leaders of other countries who have interest in our natural resources. But Duterte is not a kind of leader has own decision and it can't be dictated by other countries. So, we should expect that it is possible that there is a country that would angry to us because of his style of leadership. So, we need to be alert at all times. If we have a strong national defense, we don't need to worry about anything.
In terms of peace and order, this is the battlecry of Duterte. Under his administration, criminals has no room in this country. Duterte will bring back the death penalty even the Catholic Church is opposing it. He believed that this punishment would bring fear into the minds of the criminal. It is possible that they think thrice before they commit a henoism crime. One thing also, Duterte is a number one enemy of drug trafficking. If he become a president, the numbers of drug lords and drug pushers would be lessen. We knew that illegal drugs is the cause of many crimes. So, we need a leader like Duterte who have a political will to stop this kind of menace in our country. In the end, there is a possibility that we can live in a peaceful society through Duterte's iron hand!

Our Territorial Dispute With China
Every politician is shouting for a change during their campaign sorties. This word is just already has been already used for thousand times. But in reality, there is no true change. Many of our fellowmen are still living in a depth poverty. We are also shameful in the eyes of international communities. Foreign investors are staying away from us because of bureaucratic system. How can we redeem our country in this very hard situation? As what we knew, we need a strong leader to guide us in our new path as a country.
If we talk about foreign affairs, we need a leader that who knows how to deal even with the stubborn leaders of other countries. Right now, we are facing a huge problem because China already claimed some of our islands. We need a leader who could talk with them properly. A leader who could show humbleness, but with a steadfast position. We don't need to boast, let us accept the fact that we are a powerless country in terms of military defense. We can't rely to our alliance with America. As of now, China is the second powerful country to the world next to America. The US government has a financial debt to this country. So, how can they attack it if ever we declare war against China?
I heard that Duterte is willing to resolve our dispute with China. Contrary to the belief of others, Duterte is a brave leader, but he is also loves diplomacy. He understands that we can't beat China in a bloody fight. So, we need to talk with them cautiously until we reach a peaceful resolution with this problem. Duterte already said that he don't want to fight with China. It doesn't mean that he becomes coward to this country or he would give up our islands with them. He just want to save our country from a great devastation. Although we Filipino people are known for being a descendants of heroes; we should be careful with our decisions. In just one mistake, our country would be totally affected. Remember, that the rich people in our country has a Chinese blood. What if they would not support in favor of their race origin. War is a last option, Duterte know this.
For me, Duterte has a strong charisma. There is a possibility that he could unite our country because even the Muslim rebels and the leftist are supporting him. If he become a president, he could also deal with foreigners who have other political beliefs or interest. It is just a matter of sincerity and integrity. Duterte could also present himself in the international communities what every political system they have.
