We have given justification to the sacrifice my parents made for this land. Filipinos are indeed worth dying for.
We, Filipinos, have won the battle yet another one is coming. Our nation is facing many problems. Corruption, poverty, war in Mindanao just to name a few. There is so much work to do. But for the next 6 years of my administration, we, not only I will conquer these problems.
Why can’t we advance? Why can’t we progress? What is it in us that limits or prohibits our growth as a people and as a country? I usually ask these questions to myself. The past administration has programs and projects that are beneficial to the masses. But I have seen officials who implement these projects do not make the most out of it. Graft, corruption, red-tape, bribery and the like. These are the termites that continue to ruin the rightful benefits our people must receive. In my recent campaign, I always stress “Kung walang corrupt, walang mahirap”. I believe, having a transparent and accountable government is the key that will drive those termites away. Effective implementation of this will surely erase these pests. We must now become a government committed to accountability and transparency; a government that works with the people in achieving long-term change.
My vision is to transform our country into one where we have lower tax rates enjoyed by all, rather than have some enjoy absolute tax exemptions while we burden the rest of the economy with very high tax rates. We will refrain from imposing new taxes or increasing tax rates. I believe that markets are better than government in spotting where the growth opportunities are, and, with universal low tax rates, we will encourage entrepreneurs and enterprises to invest and create jobs in any industry.
We must also be able to harness our homegrown talent in order to further improve our local industries.
Nations whose nationalism is destroyed are subject to ruin.
It’s time to unite for a better Philippines!
Being nationalistic will greatly boost our morale and pride therefore letting us make a difference for our beloved country which is greatly needed by now. Let us not abandon our land in this time of need instead let us move to protect our homeland. Let us not lose hope for we have already begun in searching for long-term solutions.
Ngayon, wala na tayong dapat pang ikatakot. Tayo ay gising na. Tayo ay mulat na. Tayo ay kikilos na upang makamit ang tagumpay. Taas-noo muli ang Pilipino sa mundo.
Thank you and may the Good Lord bless us all. Mabuhay tayong lahat!
