ONE MORNING, I AND MY FRIEND WHO ALSO HAPPENS TO BE MY BOSS WERE EXCHANGING IDEAS ABOUT THE GREAT DISPARITY BETWEEN THE POOR AND THE RICH, THOSE WHO HOLD POWER AND THOSE WHO ARE NOT AND THE KIND OF TREATMENT ACCORDED TO THEM.
FOR THE SAKE OF ILLUSTRATION I WILL CITE THE CASE OF FORMER MILITARY COMPTROLLER LIGOT WHO AMASSED HUGE AMOUNT OF MONEY TO BE EXACT 740 MILLION IN THE SPAN OF FOUR YEARS AS AFP COMPTROLLER.
ONLY YESTERDAY, THE SENATE ARRESTED HIM AND PUT HIM UNDER SENATE HOUSE ARREST. NOT FOR GRAFT AND CORRUPTION CASE BUT FOR NOT SHOWING UP TO SENATE INQUIRY.
BUT AN ORDINARY JUAN DELA CRUZ, WHO OUT OF HIS NEEDS SHOP LIFT AND WAS CAUGHT IMMEDIATELY HE IS PUT BEHIND BARS EVEN BEFORE THE RIAL OF HIS CASE.
BUT GRAFT AND CORRUPTION IS NOT ONLY CATEGORIZE AS STEALING THE PEOPLE'S MONEY BUT ROBBING THEM IN BROAD DAYLIGHT AND YET THEY ARE FREE AS A BIRD AND RECEIVE A SPECIAL TREATMENT AS COMPARED TO POOR JUAN DELA CRUZ WHO ONLY STEAL OUT OF HIS NEEDS BUT RECEIVE HARSH TREATMENT.
RAMON MAGSAYSAY,ONE PHILIPPINE PAST PRESIDENT ONCE SAID: "THOSE WHO HAVE LESS IN LIFE MUST HAVE MORE IN LAWS." IT WAS RE=ECHOED BY PRESIDENT NOYNOY AQUINO DURING THE 65TH UNITED NATION GENERAL ASSEMBLY.
I HOPE THIS GREAT DISPARITY BETWEEN THE POOR AND THE RICH WILL BE GIVEN ATTENTION BY THE PHILIPPINES LAW MAKING BODY AND THE POLICY MAKING BODY OF OTHER COUNTRIES.
GOING BACK TO MY MORNING CONVERSATION WITH MY BOSS, HE SAID: "THIS THING ONLY HAPPENS IN THE PHILIPPINES."
INDEED IT IS ANOTHER WAKE UP CALL FOR OUR LAWMAKERS AND FOR THE ENTIRETY OF OUR GOVERNMENT FROM THE TOP DOWN TO THE BOTTOM.
