POLITICIANS...A BAD EXAMPLE FOR STUDENT LEADERS

POLITICIANS - A BAD EXAMPLE FOR STUDENT LEADERS

The campaign period for this year's election have started......their tv ads promise the same thing....some of those making the promises are "sitting" senators and relatives of "sitting" senators....they promise to alleviate poverty...they promise to improve education...they promise better health care....they promise to take care of us...in whatever capacity they can......Very nice and comforting to hear...

Some of these candidates received the much talked about 1.6 million pesos from Senate President Enrile....and I don't see or hear any of them giving the money to the poor they promised so much to!....Then they have to gall to make the same promises again?

Why is this piece titled this way....."POLITICIANS - A BAD EXAMPLE FOR STUDENT LEADERS - schools all over the country are about to hold elections for their respective student councils anytime soon....my advice to the candidates....please don't imitate the politicians who will promise anything in their campaign speeches just to get the votes....just promise what you know you can deliver.....just declare what is within your power and within your rights to do....always bear in mind that you are students and you can only move within certain boundaries...nobody expects you to do more than that...so please no absurd and unrealistic promises......and to the student voters....don't make the election a joke...don't vote based on the ones who can deliver the best jokes...study the candidates....listen to their speeches and to their promises....those who will promise too much will just end up disappointing you and lying to you.

To the Filipino Voters...Time to wake up....Don't vote for the candidates bearing the names of their politician fathers....hindi na nga matino yung mga tatay....ikakalat pa sa politika ng bayan ang lahi nila.....tayo lang ang puedeng magturo ng leksyon sa mga taong ito....HUWAG SILANG IBOTO SAMPU NG KANILANG MGA ANAK AT ASAWA...TAMA NAMAN NA.
