Sometimes, I have a feeling of apprehension whether
I consider myself a Filipino. Do-It-Right Pinoy
Sometimes, I have a feeling of apprehension whether
I consider myself a Filipino. I don’t want to create or make a sweeping statement that the most Pinoys are irresponsible, self-centered, immature, uncaring and lastly, stupid.
So many of us are unconcerned of what is happening
around. We are hard-headed and don’t want to learn something out of the misery of the past.
Just imagine who that person was that had thrown
his garbage on the street canals, rivers, floodways, estero, anywhere. When in fact, he could easily place them all in his waste bin. Is this the kind of person in his right frame of mind?
More importantly, is this the person who is growing of age
as a responsible citizen of this country? He should be matured enough to know and learn the disastrous effect of indiscriminate littering of garbage.
I guess, he very well perceived the main cause of flooding
when it rains heavily? Herewith, this is not the right forum for me to elaborate more or elucidate further of the so many ills of Filipino society due to our own stupidity and inutile or dysfunctional state of mind.

Herewith, this is not the right forum for me to elaborate
more or elucidate further of the so many ills of Filipino society due to our own stupidity and inutile or dysfunctional state of mind. The Philippines had a rambunctious press but it did not check corruption of government elected politicians & officials and offices like LTO, BIR, BOC, pending projects of DPWH and LGU. Individual pressmen could be bought, as could many judges. Something had gone seriously wrong.
Discussions in the Philippines are mostly filled with
polemical (controversial) sophistry (dishonesty) and showbiz tsismis & scandals often focused on insignificant and irrelevant concerns.
We SHOULD have often focused on the most
practical and most important points for the country's best economic, political, technological interest & advancements.
So many ills of Filipino society due to our own
stupidity and inutile or dysfunctional state of mind.
When will we achieve a model society composed of
renewed Filipinos in terms of intelligence and good moral values? This is ideal, however, this will never happen at all. Sorry to say this because we are doomed to be insensitive to be leaning towards the path of perfection.
