The issue about Philippine poverty is still the main topic in the every newspaper in the country.
I cannot seemed to forget what the columnist wrote down that sounded like a frustration as he said "Filipinos are great artist and writers, we paint about it, write about it, but slow to improve on it, when it is all broken, we just throw it away in hopes the little people will learn to fix it"
Philippine Presidents in particular have been drawn from the ranks of the wealthy and privileged. How can they relate to what it means to be poor or hungry? Actors are running for Presidents, and boxers are also contending pound for pound to sit in the hot seat of the presidential chair, what can they possibly do? Besides adding more money into their pockets.
