The Election Campaign TV ads are far from reality…

Our candidates in the national level have become busy this days. Some of them who are members of the same party that have agreed to meet once in while to conduct campaign together don’t have anymore time due to the hectic schedules. And they preferred to campaign individually.
But what is more striking is the idea that most of the candidates are offering services (if they win) that would uplift the life of Filipino people from the chaos. This is being shown regularly on TV. That this candidates are like superman, broadcasting to the world that they can do everything to satisfy and make life comfortable.
This is one of the facts that ordinary voters believed. Why? because the level of campaigning is done in a superstitious way. Candidates (not all) should be the first to upgrade or enhance the way they should campaign.
The dancing style, the singing style, the rampant use of unfortunates faces of children, faces of farmers and more are just an example that these future leaders are exaggerating the real scenario of the Republic of the Philippines.
Let me recap the things happened on the last 20 years when Juan started to struggle for a better life. (Correct me if I am wrong) Pres. Aquino won the presidency because of the late NINOY, followed by FVR, then Erap and GMA, and also some of the Senators that are still on the go mentioning exaggerated thing. The leader during these times had all expressed their desire to uplift the life of Filipino.
What had happened really is big. Juan’s once good life has turned out into a more harder life. Today, Juan is doubling his sacrifices just to maintain his life. Yet every election all of the candidates are shouting that they could ease some of the things that makes Juan’s life miserable. But the results are opposite. Juan doesn’t know anymore what is right from wrong.
Due to the fact that he (Juan) should work to earn a living, as long as he will be paid accordingly or be paid lower than the minimum wage, Juan is not thinking twice but grab the opportunity. That Juan knows, the riskier the job, the bigger the price at stake. Thus come up the rampant illegal activities.
Candidates waste too much during campaign period. Though the COMELEC (Commission on Election) has guiding rules on the money to be spent on the campaign, some of the campaign materials used could be easily declared that it was donated by a friend. It means that the money did not came from the candidate himself.
Anyway this is none sense. After all, Philippines is the number 2 most corrupt country worldwide.
Every candidates or the leaders of the State has all the ability and the capacity to serve the people. But it seems the change is far going to the benefit of the people but to the benefits of individual’s pocket.
Vote wisely! Vote wisely! Vote wisely! Vote wisely! Until your vote no more.
