mao na.. maski small piece of lot lang sila pero napa transform nila from 3rd world to 1st world
wala pa jud sila natural resources
kung dili pa maayo ila leaders?? ma ingon ana kaha na sila?

I'm talking about the System they're running...

SMALL AREA = Current System Works
LARGE AREA = Centralized System makes it SLOW.

Localization makes transactions faster in a LARGE AREA.

kung ipa lusot lang diay tong freedom of information bill aron transaprent ang transactions?

Kung naa na sa kaarang systema nganong wala na buhata? 70 yrs ago na...

[kazki]

a good leader can make a good system

So, you're implying... We have to let PNoy (let's say he's a good leader) do all the work and we wait for results?

1. Follow traffic rules -- Why is that the most important? The answer is
simple. Traffic rules are the simplest of our laws. If we learn to follow
them, it will be the lowest form of national discipline that we can develop.
Since it is totally without monetary cost, it should be easy for us to
comply with, and therefore should provide a good start.

2. Whenever you buy or pay for anything, always ask for an official receipt.
-- If a seller does not issue an official receipt when you buy a product,
the seller may or may not remit the tax to the government. Without an O.R.,
there is no record of the sale transaction, and the tax that you paid may
not be remitted to the Bureau of Internal Revenue.

3. Do not buy smuggled goods. Buy local, buy Filipino. -- It may not be good
economics to buy 100 percent local products.What I suggest is for us to take
a "50-50" buying attitude. This means that we must develop the attitude of
using 50 percent of our budget for local products and the other 50 percent
for imported choices.

4. When you talk to others, especially foreigners,speak positively of our
race and our country -- this is best addressedto the rich and the middle
class in our country, who have contact with the outside world.It is they who
talk to, dine or deal with foreigners either here or abroad. It is what they
say and do which creates impressions about us among foreigners.

5. Respect your traffic officer, policeman, soldier and other public
servants -- There is nothing like the power of respect. It makes a person
proud. It makes one feel honorable. At the same time, courtesy to others is
good manners. It is class and elegance and kindness. It is seeing the value
and dignity in the other man. It is, in fact, a mark of a most profound
education.

6. Do not litter. Dispose your garbage properly. Segregate.

Recycle.Conserve. -- As Louis Armstrong says in his song: "I see trees of
green, red roses, too, I see them bloom for me and you and I think to
myself, what a wonderful world."

7. Support your church. (or charitable/ civic organizations -

8. During elections, do your solemn duty. -- Honesty, more than a masteral
or doctorate degree, is what gives credibility. And credibility is essential
because it is a leader's link to the people.It is what makes the people look
to one direction,follow a common vision, and perform a uniform act. In
short,credibility is what makes people follow the leader.

9. Pay your employees well. -- No exercise is better for the human heart
than to reach down and lift someone else up. This truly defines a successful
life. For success is the sum, not of our earthly possessions, but of how
many times we have shown love and kindness to others.

10. Pay your taxes. -- In 2003, P83 billion was collected from individual
income taxes. But 91 percent of this amount came from salaried workers from
the government and private sector, people who had no choice since their
income taxes were withheld mandatorily. Only P7 billion of the P83 billion
came from businessmen and professionals like doctors, lawyers, accountants
and architects,among others.

11. Adopt a scholar or adopt a poor child. -- You can make a difference in
the future of our country by making a difference in the world of children.

12. Be a good parent. Teach your kids to follow the law and to love our
country. -- Today's children will someday rule and lead this world. But
whether they will be bad rulers or good leaders will depend largely on how
we raise them today. Our future is in the hearts and minds of our children

nice one kang alex lacson ni no?

that's because all the money generated in the other big cities goes to the capital of the Philippines. that's why they are more developed than others.

This is what the current national government is all about... ang tanang kita sa bisan asang lungsod diri sa Pilipinas moadto pa sa capital of the Philippines... asa man ang capital sa Pilipinas, dba ang manila man? Kinsa ang nagkupot ana? kadto ra siya ang gamhanan... ang lungsod nga naningkamot kung ganahan sila ug development sa ilang lungsod, kinahanglan pa silang mangayo sa gamhanan nga naa sa manila. Dili pa jud ihatag kung dli kapartido ang nangayo. Mao hinay ang development sa lungsod nga sila man unta ang naningkamot.

[masakiton]

Exactly my point... I think it's about time we spread the growth and development and not focus it on the capital. This move will help solve a lot of problems in our government.

ang isa sa cause sa problem kai ang mga taw nga nag pa dagan sa government
different system + corrupt , incompetent, tapolan officials = same results
kung walai ayo ang officials samot ka luoy ang lugar

"Kung naay corruption...walay maayong project" <= ma wala kaha ni
unsa man kasigaradohan nga dili gihapon korakoton ang kwarta para sa projects?

Dba each goverment sector naa man cla iventory, so in Federal form of government dali ra ma trace kay gamay raman ang involve. Unlike sa centralized form of government Luzon, Visayas ug Mindanao its takes a lot of time... so asa man ta sa dali nga development or sa dugay nga development?
