you know guys what matters most, we are after change

though we have contradicting ideas and we tend to make this thread a battlefield, our aim is still for the change!

we want to see our country progress, we want our country to be among the first world countries! kalaysho ana noh! at least dili na mahal ang mga gucci ug louis vuitton kung magshopping ko kay wala nay export expense, ug taxes chorva!

but with the current administration we have, wa juy klaro! ever!

ALL OF US SHOULD CHANGE AND GET ONE GOAL. THE PROBLEM WITH US FOLKS IS WE KEEP ON BLAMING EACH OTHER. i appreciate the TS for another infamous thread. and i sure hope this gets somewhere better.

katung gusto muladlad diha apil napud mo kay para icongratulate mo!

OnT.

anyway, mao to sya! ang government ang naay responsibility sa pag-invite sa mga foreign investors diri sa atong country para managhan ang mga job opportunities, dili ang mga tawo!

as what i said, unsay mabuhat sa ordinary citizen? follow the law? unya, makatabang kaha ng pagfollow sa law nga makahatag ug pagkaon sa mga poor. to some extent, yes, we should follow the law! but please, let's not forget that the government should have its responsibility to give the best to its citizens!

simple ra kaau, dapat mubutar tag tarung nga taw
ang problema kay wala namay tarung na mapilian
unsaun naman lang na run
timan-i lisod baya mulead ug pamilya, unsa pa kaha kung town or country na

OT: mark_012590 = florida.blanca = mahiwagang.dyosa. No need to argue. Go on with the discussions.

OnT: Who should change? A famous quote from Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi answers the question -- "Be the change you want to see in the world." If we want CHANGE, it should start within ourselves. The one who runs the government are PEOPLE and whom they serve are also PEOPLE. Though we can't expect a quick change of people and/or government.

^^ agree.

THose who govern the country now are human beings. They grow old, and die. And another set of human beings , possibility of being us or our very children in the future, will take over and govern the country.

If u want to change the government, then you should change the people who are IN the government. We cannot do that now, but we CAN do that in the future by educating the young to strive for justice and opporunity, and if chances bring them the role to be part of the government, they will work wonders for the rest of us.

This maybe Off-topic but just would like to share this motivational story about change.....

CHANGE BEGINS WITH CHOICE by Jim Rohn

Any day we wish; we can discipline ourselves to change it all. Any day we wish; we can open the book that will open our mind to new knowledge. Any day we wish; we can start a new activity. Any day we wish; we can start the process of life change. We can do it immediately, or next week, or next month, or next year.

We can also do nothing. We can pretend rather than perform. And if the idea of having to change ourselves makes us uncomfortable, we can remain as we are. We can choose rest over labor, entertainment over education, delusion over truth, and doubt over confidence. The choices are ours to make. But while we curse the effect, we continue to nourish the cause. As Shakespeare uniquely observed, "The fault is not in the stars, but in ourselves." We created our circumstances by our past choices. We have both the ability and the responsibility to make better choices beginning today. Those who are in search of the good life do not need more answers or more time to think things over to reach better conclusions. They need the truth. They need the whole truth. And they need nothing but the truth.

We cannot allow our errors in judgment, repeated every day, to lead us down the wrong path. We must keep coming back to those basics that make the biggest difference in how our life works out. And then we must make the very choices that will bring life, happiness and joy into our daily lives.

And if I may be so bold to offer my last piece of advice for someone seeking and needing to make changes in their life - If you don't like how things are, change it! You're not a tree. You have the ability to totally transform every area in your life - and it all begins with your very own power of choice.
