For all Filipinos in this community, we recently heard our president's speech. What is your point of view about her speech?

Well obviously, she bragged her own so-called achievements as if she was making the lives of Filipinos better. Unfortunately, the fact remains: most Filipinos have gotten worst when it comes to economic/financial conditions in households. But I don't mean to be biased because it's undeniable that the president has also exerted some efforts to help the poor, however, if only she can at least minimize the corrupt practices in her government, our live would have been better.
And she cannot minimize such evil practice if it starts in her own household.

I totally agree. The content of her speech was more on her achievement. But if you come across to remote areas, the situation doesn't deny that poor people became poorer and rich people became richer.

I don't think she made many promises. She emphasize her so-called achievements.
