Poverty in the Philippines

I hope there are Filipinoes here in MyLot to make this discussion alive. My only concern is why this country keeps on going down as far as development is concerned. I say the main reason is poverty due to corruption. I have seen how our politics work and all they do is debate at each other and make themselves rich. That's why i do not watch the news anymore because from my work I pay almost 20% of my salary as taxes and I don't see any progress or development on our country. I hope a great leader will be born one day who will change the course of the future of the Philippines or just let a Great Country rule us...

There are many great leaders in the philippine ,hardworking and sincere , but only few people know how they work , because they are not popular news that sell, only the controvertial, popular people that people vote during the election, I hope this election find and vote the people that really works than argue , I wish that media will write down every politician running for a seat what they dont for the country.
