COMPOSURE IN FACE OF TRGEDY

DESPITE OF JAPAN'S PRESENT INTERNAL PROBLEMS CAUSE BY SERIES OF NATURAL CALAMITIES SUCH AS EARTHQUAKE, TSUNAMI AND NOW NUCLEAR LEAKAGE, THE JAPANESE MAINTAINS ITS COMPOSURE.

THE GOVERNMENT OF JAPAN WILL NEVER BACK TRACK OF HER PREVIOUS COMMITMENT MADE TO THE PHILIPPINES. ACCORDING TO NATIONAL ECONOMIC AND DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY (NEDA), THE JAPANESE GOVERNMENT HAS MADE ABOUT $10 BILLION IN NET COMMITMENT TO THE PHILIPPINES.

JAPAN HAS SHOWN RESILIENCE AND COMPOSURE IN THE FACE OF TRAGEDY. NEDA SECRETARY PADERANGA SAID WHILE JAPAN PRESENTLY HAS A NARROW FISCAL SPACE ITS CURRENT ACCOUNTS SURPLUS WAS STILL SUBSTANTIAL TO FULFILL ITS COMMITMENT.

THE PHILIPPINES MUST LEARN AND POSSIBLY ADOPT THE GOOD GOVERNANCE OF THE JAPANESE GOVERNMENT. THEY HAVE THE CAPABILITY TO FINANCE PROJECTS TO WHICH THEY HAVE ALREADY MADE COMMITMENTS.

JAPAN'S EXCELLENT LEADERSHIP PAID OFF, THE PEOPLE MADE PROUD OF THEIR GOVERNMENT. DIGNITY IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN MONEY AND POWER.

UNLIKE THE PHILIPPINES, MOST IF NOT ALL, POLITICIANS RUN FOR PUBLIC OFFICE NOT IN THE NAME OF PUBLIC SERVICE BUT FOR PERSONAL GAIN AND INTEREST.

NO WONDER WHY TILL NOW THE PHILIPPINES KEEPS ON BORROWING FROM OTHER COUNTRIES LIKE JAPAN. I WISH ONE DAY MY OWN GOVERNMENT CAN ADDRESS ITS OWN ITS OWN INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL PROBLEMS

THOUGH I AM A REFORMED CATHOLIC, VISITING THE PLACE IS A RARE EXPERIENCE AND I WAS AMAZED TO SEE HOW PEOPLE STRIVE TO CREATE ENORMOUS STATUE LIKE THIS. PILGRIMS FROM DIFFERENT PARTS OF ARCHIPELAGO FLOCKED TOGETHER TO SEE THIS WONDERFUL PLACE. I AM A STRONG BELIEVER THAT PEOPLE'S FAITH CREATED THIS PLACE. THEIR FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST WORKS WONDER FOR THEM RECEIVING POSITIVE ANSWERS TO WHAT THEY WISH FOR.

TRIANGLE OF LIFE, AN EMAIL FORWARDED MESSAGE ON SAFETY

DEAR FAMILY MEMBERS & FRIENDS: PLEASE DO NOT FAIL TO READ!!! Where to Go During an Earthquake Remember that stuff about hiding under a table or standing in a doorway? Well, forget it! This is a real eye opener. It could save your life someday. EXTRACT FROM DOUG COPP'S ARTICLE ON 'THE TRIANGLE OF LIFE' My name is Doug Copp. I am the Rescue Chief and Disaster Manager of the American Rescue Team International (ARTI ), the world's most experienced rescue team.
