Benigno Aquino III is true to his words; however, there’s no better time for
his administration to follow through its mandate of national development
than this so-called honeymoon period. And a huge chunk of his to-do list has
something to do with implementing sound economic policies to offset the
continuing national dilemma. And like the ever-vigilant people here at
Bantay Presidente, many concerned citizens and institutions took upon
themselves to watch every sign of progress (or lack thereof) that lends itself
to the fulfilment of the president’s promises. Among others, ABS-CBN
(http://www.abs-cbnnews.com/aquino-promises/economy) and The Philippine
Online Chronicles (http://www.thepoc.net/blogwatch-features/8152-promises-
of-noynoy-aquino.html) listed each promise and from this list, the nation can
deduce whether PCOS (President Cory’s Only Son) has been following
through his promises of a “daang matuwid”. Let’s hope that as an Economics
graduate of the Ateneo (and as Gloria Arroyo’s student in what is now known
as Eco102), he has sufficient understanding of the right things to do to turn
this country’s economy around.
