RE-INVENTING PHILIPPINES: POWER PLAY BRINGS OUT THE BEST IN POLITICS

The system’s tracks in Philippine politics are changing the very fiber of the traditional concepts which breed the “culture of graft and corruption,” and the new saga of re-inventing the Philippine government is making a toll to many well-established institutions of the best minds to understand what really is the right path to making the country on its track to greatness, progress and prosperity for its people.

When you are surfing the internet with its vast array of ideas and opportunities, as well as reading the national newspapers with all the hypes and headlines to attract readers; or looking at the TV programs that frequently highlights the different news and trends of social and political issues in the Philippines such as “House impeached Corona”, “SC Chief ready to face enemies”, and many others, you would say that it is very fascinating to note that these “political players” are actually re-building the zenith of new politics, as it is happening in the other parts of the world.

But more intriguing to note is that you are looking at the best minds at work in the very character of Philippine politics.  And this “political character” looks at the “clashing issues” with the best presentation of interests while the conceptual possibilities, or let’s say, probabilities are innocuously rocking both sides of the political parapet.

As I can see it, the path taken by President Noynoy Aquino is making a tsunami of unprecedented “political risk” known but not taken before. He is drawing on the whiteboard an immutable determination and commitment to achieve the very order of political business, which he commits during his inaugural address that for some or to many, is a utopian stride. And I believe, the same path will be taken if his father, Ninoy, would have been the president today.

By seeing the situation as it is, and would be it I suppose, the best ball of chance and opportunity is now in the hands of the Aquino cabinet and allies in the Philippine Congress. The path not taken before is what this president intends to take and the oddity of the stridence, at least, initially wrung across the dynamics of the political groove it is creating within the dynamics of the Philippine system.

Indeed, the journey of the Philippine Politics towards a matured democracy is dawning, and this political path that Pres. Aquino has been taking would surely carve an historic emblem for generations to come. This is the path taken also by many great men in history---oddity of character that reinvented governments of the world.

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR to all!…

Geopolitical wedding of two great economies assures the world of greater peace and prosperity

When in a speech delivered by Chinese president Hu Jintao among students of a Chicago school, which spoke about the youth as the future of the country and hope of the world, it brought back to my memory the words of the national hero of the Philippines, Dr. Jose P. Rizal, a nationalist and a martyr.
It takes one to benefit the whole, just as it takes one Chinese leader to benefit the world.
In the world history, there had been a lot of heroes and martyrs who sacrificed their lives to benefit the many people they loved dearly. The world has never been that old enough to fill every ground with blood spilled to serve as a nutrient of freedom or downfall of a dictator. In addition, I believed that there would be many of them on the waiting line ready to serve their beloved nation.
Although heroes are also perceived as martyrs and in many perspective, they serve as models of righteousness, what is the world to judge and what is left to the minds of those who would love render a bitter part of their endeavor. Freedom indeed is an exercise of free will and the consumption of what is worth dying. Now, I remember Senator Benigno “Nino” Aquino, whose blood has toppled the authoritarian regime of then Pres. Ferdinand Marcos.
On the other part of the world, the most recent event that transpired in the North African nation of Tunisia where a 26-year-old sacrifice of his own life ignited the whole nation into an uproar against the well-entrench dictator, Pres. Zine El Abidine Ben Ali whose 23 years of rule called one to sacrifice to benefit the whole nation. Indeed, world history has never been hungry of self-sacrificing people to carry on the noblest act that would turn tyrants down on their knees or fled away fearing the wrath of an onrushing rage of their own people.
China, just like many other countries, also committed blunders in their own governance. Moreover, one of the greatest blunders it committed was the suppression of a democratic movement in Beijing’s Tiananmen Square in 1989 that students and intellectuals demanded government reforms. This same year witnesses the collapse of a number of communist governments around the world. Nevertheless, it never shook China. There was felt a tremor, but it hardly affected its own yard.
Human rights are one of the fundamental requisites to foster a country towards entering a community of nations. Suppressing human rights is tantamount to an offensive to humanity in freedom, endowed with all the privilege and opportunities to exercise judgment and be responsible for its continued propagation. Human right for many is freedom. It symbolizes the inner value of the person.
China and America are two different nations endowed with differing culture, and are free to choose which path they should take without the interference of each other. Each country sets their respective priorities just as a person to another. No one controls the other but relatively with unified passion to creating a peaceful environment where everyone has all the rights to live by the spaces each government can provide. They both have differing laws and people’s voice representation; one by elections and the other by appointment of those who are collectively trusted to govern the whole will of government. Though both believe the power of the people to set goals and inspiration in their own respective rights and privileges, they significantly differ from how governments run its own affairs. On either sides each represent the positive or negative, but the possibility that they would meet at one point on the middle is great.
The visit of Chinese president Hu Jintao, in my view, is a stark attendance to a wedding ceremony of two differing economic giants, and to the great advantage of the completely wide world that fixed their eyes on these two key world players. Leadership of a nation may change, but the legacy of the outgoing leaders has concretized the value of action that it can offer as they exercise the authority entrusted for their cause.
China’s visit to the Western world is one of symbolic, though some may find it insignificant, but it left a great gesture for the future generations who will view this day of event with careful examination on what it can offer for everyone else in the world.
It is hope that what the two leaders of these great nations have accomplished in those four days can bring out the best of it in the future. In my own view, I feel that the geopolitical wedding that I have witness behind the views of the camera assures the peoples of the world for a greater peace and prosperity.
It is indeed my wish and prayer.

Al-Qaeda infuriating Christians to rise against Islamists, sets a flare of hatred to sow dissension

The pattern has already been set: Al-Qaeda infuriating Christians to rise against Islamists, sets a flare of hatred to sow dissension. When two groups are being set to fight against each other because of pain and hate, war is inevitable and more deaths to follow. This is I believe what Al-Qaeda is trying to draw to keep their cause alive all over the world.
The bombing incidents in Nigeria, Egypt, UK, and the Philippines were all done in simultaneous pattern. The target areas are those where Christians usually flock together.
It makes sense.
If they would set bombs near Muslim mosques, it would be a defeating fashion of war against their Muslim brothers  because it would be as if they are eating their own flesh; but, if it would be on the Christians, it has greater impact to send a message to the major Christian nations that Al-Qaeda is still alive and kicking. Just imagine the tremendous impact that it could initiate within the heart of every nation that they can instigate to rise against each other.
There would be cause of nation rising against nation; Christians against Muslims, and the flare of pain and hatred will be the main ingredient of a worldwide chaos. There would be no respecter of person, neither the identity of minor or major, nor the leaning of righteous and to those who are not. People will be blaming against each other. Oh what a holocaust it would be, man against man; people against people; nation against nation; and order would be a heap of dead bodies lying in every corner, women and children will be crying for their own dead kindred.
It makes sense. Really, it makes sense.
When Al-Qaeda will be successful in this type of war instigation, it is as if it won its holy war against those they call infidel and the cause of their terror will influence every country of the world, and control would fall into their hands. They can chose which nation they’re going to bomb and which is not. There would be cries of mercy uttered by every heads of state but no negotiations will be reached. Why? Because this is what they wanted after all---a chaotic world, a reign of terror all over the earth.
Does it makes sense? Really it does.
Al-Qaeda wants that people in each nation will be ignorant of their own culture and tradition, to instead see it as the cause of their own downfall. They would like to reset every cause of perspective drawing each empty whiteboard a show of strokes easy to grasp by every mature human being. After all, we admit or not, this is a chaotic world filled with lies and deceptions…and finally, the blame is on the Western countries.
Why it really makes sense?…WikiLeaks does a great contribution to this effort of Al-Qaeda.
The pattern is set. WikiLeaks will expose the rots of the West and its activities all over the world. People who are interested to the real score would likely contrive. They would analyze events after events until they would finally reach a point of the equilibrium to decide which to side or break.
Of course, it would come out with finality that the West is to blame for all these chaotic events simply because the evidences has already been published by WikiLeaks, which the wise would say as the “uncontrollable truth”, but later realize “vengeful lies” brought about by people working within the streams of intelligence and are drawn into the cloak of countries who drew scenarios for their own security and protection.
To further upgrade the cause of this terror dynamics as spawned directly by the expose’ of WikiLeaks, terror moves is necessary. And this is where Al-Qaeda terror groups played on. Look at the maps, it doesn’t lie. The places were strategic and geopolitically valuable to break the bone of the world’s order.
Finally, I should like to say that this is a very cunning world partnership: Al-Qaeda works on war terror, WikiLeaks works on psychological terror. Victims?…Well, I'd say:  EVERBODY!
If nations can only realize and see patterns, the chaotic world as prophesied can be averted. But the hope is on the United Nations. The UN leadership should stop politicking, it must work hand in hand with the righteous nations.
Anyway, this is the pattern that I see as I observed the world's charts. You know what, I’d be ignorant if people don’t realize how they are manipulated from both sides by the cunning works of the Evil  One.
I would suggest: Be Aware, Be Awake!… You might not know the influence of lies which is the cunning works of the Evil One is creeping slowly within your midst. It’s death or annihilation.
