"Let's All Get Involved"

Dear Friends,

I would like to share my concern concerning the upcoming Philippine presidential election. I must say that I am not at all politically minded and I really don’t want to get into it but I have come to realize that as a Pinoy living abroad, we also have the responsibility towards our kababayans back home.

We all have our families, friends, acquaintance back home. We also help them in one way or another. It is usually in monetary contribution. We are all concerned about what’s going on in our country.

The people are expressing their distress, their hopelessness, their dismay, their hardships towards the poor goverments mismanagement. Corruption is rampant from high officials to the bottom. It’s about time to change and look for reliable and honest leaders. Let’s take advantage of this opportunity to “educate’ our kababayans back home. That voting is their right and this time, they should not allow trapos to manipulate people anymore. Tell them not to sell their votes. Tell them to choose their own leaders. Leaders who could help them restore the lost democracy. Leaders who could lead them and help them help themselves.

Thank you so so much and let’s try to make the difference in the lives of others. After all, we just can’t stay in our comfotable homes and watch the people and do nothing. Thank you for all your help.
