MY SAY ABOUT 2007 ELECTION
If we are talking about election, my first impressions are “dirty” and “trouble”. This coming 2007 election, I’m not expecting to have a well-organized election. If we noticed that, even a month or a year before the election, there were already many crimes, troubles that had happened because of this coming election. How much more on the day of election?
I could say that it will be a dirty election because, as what had happened last election, there were unjustified results that made many people complained. Possibly, it will be happened again, because the personnel who will organize this 2007 election are the same with the personnel last election. I think nothing will be changed; instead, our situation here in the Philippines became worse.
Election for me is, purposely to change those politicians who are not doing their responsibility to serve the people, and give chance to others who are more capable and willing to serve the people, heartily. But this time, I don’t think it would be happened. As what I’ve observed, most of the politicians are selfish. They are only looking for the benefit of their own. They wanted to be elected because they want money. Others were interested to have a high position. That’s why they will do anything just to hold the position, even to kill the person; they won’t hesitate to do it. As we have observed now, there many cases of political killing.
Another thing that makes election dirty is, people did not vote wisely. The reason is some of them were bought by the politicians and they were threatened. That’s why they could not choose and vote the person they want. That’s why, every time I heard the word election the thing that will come in my mind is “trouble” and “dirty”.
How I wish there would miracles happened here in Philippines particularly the system of election.
I’m just hoping and praying to God that by this coming election, there will be changes and the election will be peaceful and well-organized.
