"IN THE NAME OF THE FATHER, IN THE NAME OF THE MOTHER"


A FEW MONTHS FROM NOW, WE WILL BE ELECTING NEW SET OF POLITICIANS TO RUN THE AFFAIRS OF OUR NATION. DID YOU KNOW THAT IN QUEZON CITY, PHILIPPINES, MOST OF OUR ELECTED CITY OFFICIALS ARE SO-CALLED SECOND GENERATION POLITICIANS THEY ARE BEING ELECTED IN THE NAME OF THEIR RESPECTIVE FATHERS.

LET US START FROM TOP: MAYOR, HERBERT BAUSTISTA WHOM I  REMEMBEREAS ONE OF THE BAGETS DURING HIS TIME, ENTENG IN CAPTAIN BARBAL AND BISTEK IN HIS SITCOM, A MONICKER HE USED IN ALL HIS POLITICAL CAREER.

SELDOM KNOWN THAT HE IS THE SON OF FORMER KAGAWAD AND LATER HIS FATHER BECAME A BARANGAY CAPTAIN. 

VICE MAYOR JOSEFINA "JOY" BELMONTE WAS THE DAUGHTER OF PROLIFIC AND CONSIDERED THE BEST MAYOR QUEZON CITY EVER HAD.

AMONG THE COUNCILORS:

1.      JULIENNE ALYSON RAE V. MEDALLA (DAUGTHER OF FORMER COUN. RAMON "TOTO" MEDALLA)
2.      CANDY MEDINA (DAUGHTER OF FORMER COUN. ERIC Z. MEDINA)
3.      DOROTHY "DORAY" DELARMENTE (DAUGHTER OF COUN. BETH DELARMENTE)
4.      ANTHONY "ONYX" CRISOLOGO (SON OF FORMER COUN. AND NOW CONG. BINGBONG CRISOLOGO)
5.     JULIAN COSETENG (SON OF FORMER SEN. NIKI COSETENG)
6.     GIAN SOTTO (SON OF FORMER VICE MAYOR AND NOW SENATOR TITO SOTTO)
7.     RAQUEL MALANGEN (DAUGTHER OF FORMER COUN. RESTY MALANGEN)

DOES THE CITY MAKES ANY BETTER COMPARED TO THE TIME WHEN THEIR RESPECTIVE FATHERS AND MOTHERS RUN THE AFFAIRS OF OUR BELOVED  CITY? I BELIEVED SO!

DO THIS SECOND GENERATION LOCAL LEGISLATORS DESERVED ANOTHER TERM COME MAY 2013?

DO YOU KNOW PERSONALLY THEIR ACCOMPLISHMENTS? AND THE ESSENTIAL LEGISLATIONS THEY MADE FOR THE CITY?

I PERSONALLY BELIEVED THAT THERE IS NO WRONG ELECTING THESE SO-CALLED SECOND GENERATION POLITICIANS BASED ON THEIR PERSONAL QUALIFICATION AND PERFORMANCE MADE AND NOT BECAUSE THEY ARE SONS AND DAUGHTERS OF FORMER POLITICIANS.

THEY SHOULD MADE NAMES FOR THEMSELVES AND EARNED THE RESPECT OF EVERY VOTERS.

COMPLETE SET OF FEET

Our feet works harder than what we think of. It brings us to lovely places we never been to. The feet carry our body weight all day out all day in. Though tired but never complained.   I was reminded of the song "Foot Prints On The Sands." Where most of the time the songwriter always noticed that there are two sets of footprints on the sand. Suddenly, the lowest point of his time came, at his amazement, there were only one set of footprints on the sands. He complained, because he thought God leave him. A voice from heaven was heard, "My son I never leave you. Yes, there was only one set of footprints on the sand the reason for that is that I carry you." This true to life story made me think that the complete set of feet is not one but two and we must always think this way.

SAVE YOUR SPEECHES FOR THE BEST

THE POLITICAL ARENA IS VERY COLORFUL. WHETHER YOU ARE PARTY MATES OR YOU BELONG TO THE OPPOSING PARTIES, AT THE END OF THE DAY YOU WILL DO YOUR BEST TO OUT-DO AND OUT-WIT ONE ANOTHER FOR ONLY ONE REASON, TO ENSURE VICTORY AND REMAIN ON TOP. LOOK AT THEIR SLOGANS OR WHAT THEY ARE CLAIMING DURING POLITICAL RALLIES AND CAUCUSES. SOME CLAIM THAT THEIR ONLY VICE IS SERVICE (ANG TANGING BISYO NILA AY SERBISYO). SOME SAYS, "BAYAN ANG NO.1, KAMPEON NG PALUPA, TAGAPAGTANGGOL NG KABABAIHAN, KAMPEON NG EDUKASYON, GUSTO KO HAPPY KA, TAPANG AT MALASAKIT, LAYLAYAN NG LIPUNAN, ITULOY ANG DAANG MATUWID AND A LOT MORE. THEIR SPEECHES ARE WELL ORGANIZED AND CRAFTED. THEY WERE EVEN SUPERB IN THE DELIVERY OF THEIR MASTER PIECE. TO BE HONEST AND FAIR, THERE ARE CERTAIN TRUTH TO WHAT THEY ARE SAYING AND CLAIMING BUT MOST OF IT LACED WITH FLOWERY AND SOMETIMES EVEN POISONOUS. SELLING YOURSELF TO THE PEOPLE IS NOT AN EASY JOB. THE PEOPLE WILL KNOW HOW SINCERE YOU ARE AS PUBLIC SE...
