It's after 2 yrs before 2010, the next election year. And here comes another line up for our crocandidates (crocodile candidates)buying votes for their victory. People benefit from it within the election months and suffer from it for almost 4 years. Like what's happening wight now but what else is new,right? According to the World Bank we are the most corrupt country today but the government, our president and her men deny it even if it is already proven. According to UST/UP economics professors, the World Bank can't cheat about this because they are studying a lot of aspects before they can proclaim that a country which is ours right now is a corrupt(most) country.
How clever is "HER EXCELLENCY!!"? well, Filipinos are fighters, there was our People Power 1 and 2 but what about now?? HER EXCELLENCY agreed for the prices go up for more than what they should be and that's what causing a very obvious poverty now. People can't form rallies because she made a law that says you should have a permit before you can rally and add to it... people are now with fear that their families would starve if they continue to join these rally groups. They can't fight the government because they can't even if they want to.
They are stealing the money of the people! These people who are paying the right price issued for nothing.
I hope these crocandidates would later suffer more of what punishment is right for them. Maybe not here in the face of the earth but in God's punishment. I trust God's judgment or what He would give these people I'll respect.

it is because not only the government officials are corrupt as well as ordinary people. they are paying of their decision to vote candidates not deserve to be our leader but because they grab the opportunity to earn during the election, the result is our continuous hardship in our daily life under the leadership of people who was chosen by them.
