Are we just going to always wait for someone else to solve our problem? X_X
How can you love something that is hardly desirable? Let's face it, it's really hard to do, 'loving' the Philippines. But then, loving is in the will, so, well, meh pag asa pero malabo hahah

No, it's not difficult. It's either you love something or you don't, as easy as that. Loving the Philippines is similar to loving a disabled sibling. Or loving a pet mongrel that chews your favourite shoes. Or a parent loving the fat, ugly, ungrateful child who always has to have 25 helpings of adodo and then unceremoniously burps in front of guests. You hate the traffic, you swear Manila's the ugliest most chaotic city on the planet, it's difficult to get to Boracay, all the pine trees in Baguio are now dead, you squirm at the sight of the homeless along Roxas Boulevard, it's so third world, BUT despite those things, somehow.............

The resilience of the Filipino man has been praised everywhere and while it is a good trait to possess, there is some danger in being too accepting of things. Being resilient has enabled the Filipino to endure and conquer the difficulty of working abroad and being separated from loved ones. It has enabled him to work with people whose customs and traditions are so much different from his. It has also enabled him to submit himself to a corrupt government, to shrug off the incompetence of the Philippines' decision-makers, to stomach a dinner culled from trashbins filled with rotting garbage.
To experience real progress, I think that the Filipino should learn to think for himself, to identify his wants and needs, and push for all he's worth for what he really deserves.

Unfortunately, his resilience is only noticed overseas. His wants which is what everybody wants, freedom, peace and success, his own country will not provide.

Hindi naman talaga kelangang maghintay ng reresolba ng problema dito. Kaya nga hindi solusyon lang ang pagpapalit ng liderato ng bansa dahil hindi naman yun ang solusyon sa problema. Kung tutuusin, andiyan na ang mga proyekto at oportunidad, kelangan na lang hanapin at pakinabangan.
Collective effort ang kelangan para masolusyunan ang problema. Hindi pwedeng isang tao lang ang gagawa. Wala talagang magbabago kahit anong mangyari sa atin.

Lahat kayo dito ay magaganda, tunay at patriotic ang mga opinion, pangarap at pag-asa para sa ating bansa at kapwa.
Kayo yung mga klase ng tao na papasok sa isang pagtatarbahuhan o mag aaply ng utilities like phone line or electricity tapos ang sasalubong sa inyo ay isang may katungkulan na matagal na siya doon at walang paki elam sa inyong paniniwala at magandang intention kundi ang hangad lamang nito ay "lagay" kung gusto niyo makamtan ang nais o pangngangailangan niyo.
Bakit kaya nag population explosion ang cellphones sa Pinas at napag iwanan na ang landlines? Dahil ang pag aari at pag gamit ng cellphone ay di na nangangailangan dumaan sa isang kumag na humihinge ng lagay.
Diyan sa mga uri ng tao na yan na de-dead end ang ating mga maggandang hangad at pangarap sa Pilipinas.
It only takes one kumag to ruin the dream of a 100 people.

I don't think the reason for cellphones being more in vogue than landlines is because of bribery but for the obvious reason of mobility. These are fast-paced times and people have become a lot more mobile than they were in the time of our parents. The modern technology is simply adapted to fit our modern lifestyles, while also influencing our lifestyles.
But to answer your comment that it only takes one kumag to ruin the dream of 100 people, maybe if none of those 100 people cared enough about others to do something about the kumag, and they are only concerned about their own selfish convenience.
Take for example the prevalence of reckless driving. It only takes one person to take the trouble to go to the PNP and to the LTO and file a complaint about a reckless driver. I did it, and the reckless driver was fired and his license confiscated. None of the other passengers cared enough as long as they were able to get home safely.
But the reckless driver, if he were allowed to continue driving, would one day have killed a busful of people, each of whom have his/her own hopes and dreams. Just imagine, one of these future passengers could be a parent, sibling, child or other loved one. One action or inaction is of more significance than we often think it is.

When we hear the dictum, "all that is necessary for evil to succeed is that good men do nothing," we often associate it with the evil of corruption among those in power, particularly at its topmost rungs.
But what of the evil of indifference that is responsible for the perpetuation of corruption, that in turn drives away investors and jobs? Instead of always pointing fingers at the President, how about doing something about corruption at the local level and in the private sector, which is just as pernicious to our economy, if not more, since this is what local residents and investors have to deal with on a regular basis.

Yes. What we can do as individual citizens on a daily basis all adds up to either a solution or the problem, no matter how small it may seem.
Femmedeliceux's reporting of that reckless driver may have saved several lives from an accident. It's true what Aga Mulat said, that it takes only one kumag to ruin the dreams of 100 people, but it can also take one concerned citizen to make those dreams come true, albeit indirectly and gradually.
It doesn't always have to take a grand gesture to set things right. We all can do something with the country in mind.
I'm just your average Jane (or Juana, if you like), but I don't litter. I follow traffic rules as a pedestrian. And I patronize products and services from small Filipino businesses to support local livelihoods. My contribution is very small compared to what what big politicians and businessmen can do, but I still do these because this is my home and I care for it. And there's a lot we can do to demonstrate how we care for the Philippines and not just wait for a supposed savior to clean up after us.

Naku kakalindol lang.
Anyways, ang tanong ay mayroon ba sa ating mga pulitiko ang nagiisip ng solusyon sa kahirapan sa Pilipinas? Bukod sa pangulo, may iba pa ba? Karamihan ng inaasahan nating tumulong na opisyal ay tanging pulitika lamang ang iniisip. Makasarili sila at maambisyon.
Kaya nga iyong iba sa atin na ordinaryo lang, nag-iinitiate na na tumulong sa mahihirap. Kasi kung aasahan ang pulitko walang mangyayari.

Wala talaga o konti lang ang maaasahan sa mg pulitiko. Kaya tayo-tayo na dapat ang magkusang magtulungan. Paano natin maasahang uunlad ang bansa kung simpleng patakaran gaya ng di pagtawid sa di dapat tawiran o pag-ihi sa kalsada, hindi nasusunod? Disiplina ang kailangan ng Pilipinas.
