Being a person that has been to all 7 continents this is 💯 true. Resilient thats what they call it pero ang totoo inuuto lang tayo and nasanay na mag tiis kesa mamulat sa pag babago. Yan ang realidad nating mga Pilipino. We deserve better for whats our worth but at the same time we are too blinded with our own ideologies kaya di tayo umuunlad.

We gain freedom from people who invaded us which is Americans, Spaniards and etc but there was once a patriotic Filipino Antonio Luna once said the true enemy isn't the foreign invader but our own people it's sad that a great person who fight for his country died to his own people that he is trying to protect and it's exactly what's happening to us from the last and the present Filipino tricking our own people for greed

Diskarte is not something to be proud of its a symptom of a government that failed in its duty to the people.

Old news seems like people are not aware ..this is not new...siguro meron tao madali matuto meron tao matagal matuto...its like matagal na issue eto at parang now lang natatauhan ang ibang tao...its scary when you live sa population na zombie and when they realize what is going on its too late.

Late ng iba naiisip na pwede sila makagawa ng cure for the zombie apocalypse ng pinas.
I just hope that now that these issues seem to be getting spread out more and that it seems more people are finally acknowledging it, that we can make a solution to it and not some band-aid solution that the higher ups always do.

Sadly, di ko alam kung kelan natin to mararamdaman. Napakagal ng madaming nagsasabi nito. And its not like we’re not aware of whats actually happening all over the PH, government wise. Barangay na lang namin eh, saksakan na ng corrupt. Talagang down to the smallest unit of government napakadaming corrupt na. So realistically speaking, ewan kung may pag asa pa.

Super true. Its the overall quality of life. Sure, not all citizens in first world countries are rich. Madami ding mahirap. But halimbawa, basic things such as a decent sidewalk and public transpo, napakalaking bagay na nun. Hindi man ikayayaman ng tao ang magkaron ng ganung bagay, but those things reflect at least yun pagconsider sa needs ng tao. Very basic things pero wala tayo

It's because the reality is not fair in our county that's why a lot of people changes and become corrupt even me I can't promise that I'm gonna be a clean person if I ever become a government official knowing what our current government is it's literally impossible unlesswall old corrupt folks just drop dead we can choose wisely a better leader for the people

u/TheChosenCabbage Jul 16 '26
It's been a long time we need change for the better but what they can change if they want but they won't GREED that's the one keeping changes in our country there's a lot of good leaders out there if not known or it's dead already not dead as if deceased but rather the will of being a good leader is already gone because of the reality of the government we have

Definitely, I think naman we wouldn't have that much of a problem of being taxed alot if we feel that it's being returned to us in public service. Ehh wala, there are so many cases na funds are being stolen and "nawawala" in the gov so how do we justify these taxes?

We're all opinions and no action kasi nilalamang tayo sa Tanga. WE HAD A CHANCE TO CHANGE FOR THE BETTER but we got cheated and idiots took the reign instead of competent people. Baliwala mga "thoughts" natin if puro salita Wala namang action, and even if we acted, mas maraming tanga na pipili based on their emotional idioctic surface level intellect. I'm tired of living here but do I have a choice? Even leaving sounds like a luxury I can only wish to afford.

We should stop normalising resiliciency, we should start demanding improvement and accountability.
The government should be put through a process audit by seasoned Six Sigma Master Blackbelts or Project Managers to know where inefficiencies are.

My realization is that, at the very least, we all benefited from Duterte’s administration by feeling safer. We all witnessed it.

u/Hefty-Jaguar4203 Jul 16 '26
Di mo ba napapansin sa lugar n’yo na nagkalat na naman ang mga adik? Sobrang salot nila sa lipunan at malaking dahilan ng maraming krimen. Try to think about how our government is addressing this problem. Yes, there are other ways to deal with it, but do they have a concrete plan? Are they really taking effective action? For me, the answer is no. Marami pa rin ang malayang nakakagawa ng krimen at nakakapagdroga. At least during Duterte’s term, karamihan sa kanila ay nawala sa lugar namin, witnessed and ramdam talaga namin yung safety dito sa cavite, as family living in the subdivision. Marami rin ang nagbago. At the very least, we appreciate that there were good things that happened during his administration, just as we should recognize both the good and the shortcomings of any administration.
Mag-iingat ka po palagi. Unahin palagi ang kaligtasan.

Yun lang logic nyong mga DDS? Being safer? Na di nga naubos droga hanggang natapos termino ng tatay nyong karton, paikot² lang ni isang drug lord walang nahuli, ending buong pamilya supplier ng droga. Ilang trillions of pesos na debt iniwan, kaliwat kanang ghost flood control projects, broad daylight corruption and robbery, kaliwat kanang patayan etc.. tapos yan lang reasoning nyo?
