For centuries, we have been having a hard time establishing ourselves as people of the Philippines. We have been under Spanish/Japanese and American rule. We just recently were able to stand on our feet. Yet, this is what has happened to our government, and education system. The only outcome and solace that we have is to put our children through college in hopes of what? So that they can go abroad leaving their families in order for the people here to survive daily life? That is not what the future should bring. Overseas employment should not be the answer to our life.
First of all, there are so many students graduating here every year. Thousands of them but there are no vacant job openings that they can fill here. The stronger ones venture abroad in hopes of finding a better life for their families and for them sacrificing what the most precious thing to them is....and that is time. Time is one thing we will never get back no matter how rich we are.
We need to fix the government and the economy, so we as our own people can stand up and say we did it. We need free education for our children so that they can study well and have a chance to succeed in whatever their dreams may be. Pay for teachers should be raised so that they will stay here instead of leaving. Most of our skilled workers and professionals are leaving. Who will be here for us if they are all gone? Only the corrupt persons who have no care for their people and only have the idea for enriching themselves...that is who will be left here. If you ask me, no thank you I would rather not have those people here.
We shall give support to those who wants to help us and hopefully we can make this land a better nation and first world country not only for us now, but also for the future of our generations. We will not stay quiet anymore and let corruption and greed rule our lives. We will fight for our survival for a better life....
