Passionate.
It really feels like the good old days of the Street Activist is back. What I saw seems like the truth. Politicians from both camps came and expressed their piece. The people who went is a cut across the social classes. The "religious" is also present, too.
But I think we missed something.
Drowned out from all the fiery political speeches and the first quater storm-feel rock and roll acts is the fact that source of all this airwave hog, ZTE fiasco, is the point that we, as a nation, are in the path of infrastructure rebuilding.
Why is this an important point?
It means that whoever sits in The Palace, YES "WHOEVER", will always be vulnerable to the next political scandal. It's just a matter how fast or how power driven the "Whoever will be the Opposition by then" can create discontent, hog the limelight and mobilize the masses.
The next few years will be about infrastructure building for us, Filipinos.
This will be a time to build a communication network to link all government offices for better services to the Filipinos. This will be time to build a transportation network to link our rich agricultural lands to the markets of old cosmopolitan and the evolving ones thus uplifting the economic lives of our farmer brothers.
It means that if we do not fix the system in qualifying our suppliers we will always have the next ZTE scandal. And by then the supposed current Opposition will be in power and they will face the same crap that they are throwing at the Palace now.
...and history will repeat itself. Sad. Cynically funny.
Could we change the subject?
