Subject: WHAT WILL MAKE ME LEAVE THE PHILIPPINES...An open letter to
every Filipino. (Otherwise put: Do something now, or forever hold you peace..dcdserna57)

Dear Fellow Filipino,

Good day to all of you! Before I begin my letter... just a disclaimer,
for people who know me they know that I love the Philippines very much
and I am not really one who rants and complaints to high heavens about
what is happening to our country and does nothing about it, in fact, I
feel that at my relatively young age of 27, I have done much service to
the Philippines by setting up Pathways to Higher Education which has
sent more than 500 poor but deserving students to college and AHON
Foundation which has already built two public elementary school
libraries that have benefitted more than 3,500 students. Yet, after
seeing how events in our nation have transpired the past few weeks and
talking with some friends, I feel the urge to share with you my own
thoughts and feelings.

Over the weekend, we saw the completion of two major political alliances
for this coming Senate Elections that has just began here in the
Philippines. Now we have two political forces with familiar faces
nonetheless on opposite sides of the fences. On one end, you have Tito
Sotto and Tessie Aquino-Oreta who were two major stalwarts of the
opposition and the FPJ Campaign in 2004 hobnobbing with the woman (Pres.
GMA) whom they claimed to have cheated FPJ in the last Presidential
Elections.On the other side of the fence, you see Manny Villar, the
former house speaker who was actually responsible for impeaching Erap
now part of the United Opposition who is led by no less than... Erap
himself. Now if you don't see anything wrong with this picture then you
must be one of the many Filipinos who have accepted this very sad
reality that there is indeed no permanent ideals that our government
leaders stand up for but rather they just go where there self-interests
can best be served. It is this kind of politics why I no longer wonder
why good people like Ramon Magsaysay Awardee Mayor Jesse Robredo of Naga
City or outstanding Bulacan Governor Josie Dela Cruz will find it hard
or worse, never be elected to national positions.

It is with these in mind that I'd like to share with you what are events
this coming May elections that will make me consider leaving the
Philippines:

1.) If former COMELEC Commissioner Virgilio Garcillano of Hello Garci
fame wins in his bid to become Congressman of Bukidnon...seeking to
replace a good man no less in incumbent Cong. Neric Acosta... We would
really be the laughing stock of the whole world if we allow a man with
the reputation of Garci to be one of our so called "Honorable
Gentlemen".

2.) If Dancing Queen Tessie Aquino Oreta reclaims her seat at the
Senate... I hope that all of us would still remember that dance that she
did during the 2001 impeachment hearings after they voted to overrule
the decision of then Chief Justice Davide... let us make sure that
people like her never make it to the Senate again.

3.) If Richard Gomez becomes a senator... what does he know about making
laws? We already have the likes of Bong Revilla and Lito Lapid in the
Senate and their performance or lack of it would be reason enough not to
elect another actor who has no prior experience in government to the
distinguished halls of the Senate.

4.) If Gringo Honasan wins again.... have we not learned our lesson? I
cannot believe that just because someone is charismatic then we will
just elect him to become one of our senators despite the fact that he
has time and again caused so much instability in our country... if we
want a military junta similar to that of Thailand... then lets all vote
for this guy....

5.) If Manny Pacquiao becomes Congressman of General Santos City...
everybody loves Manny the Boxing Champ but Manny the Lawmaker? Lets be
realistic here, Manny is our Hero alright but I think it takes more than
just great boxing skills and a desire to serve to be able to make
appropriate laws that would help uplift the lives of the many Filipinos
who live in Poverty.

6.) If Lito Lapid wins for Mayor of Makati City... I don't like Jojo
Binay as well but Lito Lapid as city mayor of the country's finance and
business center?!?! And do you really think he is from Makati and has
good plans for the city? The Arroyos asking someone like him to run just
goes to show you how much love and concern this government has for our
country.

7.) If Chavit Singson becomes a Senator, Illegal Gambling = Chavit...
enough said.

Now if all of these 7 things happen during this coming elections then
don't be surprised if I decide to leave this country that I love dearly.
Like I said during the first part of my letter, I feel that I have done
much for this country but I think its time that Filipinos become more
vigilant and critical in selecting our leaders for the sake of our
future and the generations that will go beyond us. So I appeal to every
Filipino who asks what can I actually do for my country... Choose and
vote for the right people this coming elections, huwag na tayong
magpaloko sa mga kandidatong maganda lang ang jingle o gwapo lang sa mga
poster. Let us choose leaders who have a good track record for service
and who are genuinely committed towards serving our country.

Manindigan naman tayong lahat para sa ating Kinabukasan at para sa
Kapakanan ng ating Bayan!

Thank you very much for your time in reading this letter.

Sincerely,

Harvey S. Keh

Dear Stupid Senator Villar,


Greetings from the sunny Island of Cebu! I sincerely hope this letter finds you and your family well.

I am writing you regarding one of your Crown Asia properties, specifically "Azienda Toscana", undoubtedly another fine development of your nationally-reknowned company.

In connection to the above, I would like to lodge a complaint, not against your company or its development, but against one of its agents who holds office at this address:www.*****.com


You see, I am a member of Cebu's best and largest online forum, www.*****.com, which, as of this writing, is 150 members shy of 30,000. Last October 31, 2006, a registered member of the said forum, with username "exceed" started a thread, www.*****.com, wherein he or she was trying to attract would-be buyers, and generally, inform the www.*****.com community of such a development.

All went well on the aforesaid mentioned thread until another fellow Istorya member tried to clarify an issue regarding the right of way "problem" of this development. Upon being queried on the matter, user "exceed" started to display aggressively hysterical behaviour, up to the point of namecalling and launching personal attacks on other forum members. "Exceed", then, with the help of another member (who if I may say so, writes and sounds exactly like "exceed"), "camella", started accusing www.*****.com members of attacking the "Azienda" property because they "could not afford it"! And the attacks keep coming in, everyday. Mud is slung, members slandered, and feelings are hurt. This agent even has the proverbial "balls" to challenge the person who has the authority to issue the right of way (another forum member).

Senator, I myself have been in real estate marketing and I have trained realtors by the dozen for eight years. I know what can and what cannot hurt a developer's reputation. I am sure you agree with me when I say that this kind of agent can only do your property harm, and must be dealt with immediately, as I can assure you that many potential buyers from Istorya.net, especially the Balikbayan kind, have been seriously turned off by this agent already.

The damage has been done, but it is not too late to terminate this condescending agent (or agents) that will only taint the good name that you have worked so hard to build and protect.

Stupid Senator, thank you for your time, and have a good day.
