STANDING BY A TRUE GOVERNMENT


PART 1


I am really upset with some people who strongly criticize the administration of President Benigno Simeon "Noynoy" Aquino III even if the president is doing his job full of integrity and sincerity. And these people are the ones who did not condemn the former Arroyo regime despite the vivid rampant corruption during those times. They instead defended the Arroyos despite the condemnation the former leader received from the people.

These people who are very critical to President Noy are not really for change. They are always looking for the negative things in the present administration without counting the positive things that are happening in the country considering that our president is just new to his job.

These personalities are presenting themselves before the public as if they are the most intelligent Filipinos and are always on the right track. But sorry to tell them, they are all wrong. I believe that these people are not worth fighting for. When the president fails, they are always in the frontline ready to slap P-Noy with malicious statements. But when the president succeeds, still they have reservations against the success.

I am a believer of the words of President Noy that “there will be no reconciliation without justice.” The masses are always at the back of the president whenever he needs them or us, ready to rally against the vagaries of this few people who seek nothing but self-interests. Nothing could change my stand against these people. Unfortunately, some of them are allies of the late Icon of Democracy and President Corazon Couangco- Aquino, the mother of P-Noy. Unluckily, they are the ones who claim after the elections that they are ready to work hand-in-hand with the government for the better.

Are they really Filipinos and for Filipinos? Sorry, but I don’t think so. I know the president was hurt by their dissenting actions every time the government is offering a helping hand for peace and justice. I, a believer of change, believe that these people do nothing but are a threat to the government.

In the hostage fiasco, do they have the right to pass the blame to the president? Is the president a superhero? Are they kidding or they are just old enough to be taught of the reality in the society. They seemed to be pre-occupied with corruption and self-centered governance.

In the amnesty of the Oakwood mutinies, who are they to question the Constitutional Privilege of the President to grant amnesty? When Arroyo offers pardon from the alleged murderers of Ninoy, have they heard any comment from the Aquino family especially from former Pres. Cory Aquino? Did they rally against the amnesty given by former President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo? They did not.

In the first place, Trillanes and company are fighting for better and good governance not for corruption and money. Not like these people out there! And I think they know who they are!
