I was watching this Sunday show and they were debating something very timely especially here in our country. Who should be blame with the present situations going on in the country, Philippines?

It is easy to be in the blaming game, blaming others, circumstances, events, and things in this world. However, we fail to look at ourselves and accept the fault we had done. Instead of blaming one another, what if we look at what we can do to help ourselves, our family, our community, and our government. We can't move forward and have a progressive country if we are stacked with blaming others. We can progress when we follow biblical principles laid down in the Bible. Any nation who follows the ultimate book will always progress.

I certainly like your comment. WE can progress if we follow some of those laid principles or even starting with the Basic Ten Commandments!

both contribute with what is happening in the Philippines. People should stop complaining and just do their part. Be a good citizen. Give what is due to the government. Support the present government. A government, by definition is an institution which was formed to embody the will of the people. And the people, in the exercise of suffrage, chose the individuals who would occupy the seats in the government, thus, the people must not blame solely the government for the present situation of our country. The government, on the other hand, should give the people good, efficient and honest service... a governance that they deserve. It should likewise do its part as what the Constitution provides for.

I certainly agree. Person like you should be role models to start things right for this country. Have to start it with ourselves. But for me personally, i'm not really against anyone, but i would the blame to the history we had. If only the Philippines was conquered as state of the United States, then perhaps life would be very different. But this is real. We're Filipinos, unique, happy people despite and inspite of everything.
