On Corona and the Welfare of this Country

Name it and Philippines has it.

Throughout the years, our country has been clouded with different kinds of internal anomalies. We have so many (of them) that we can only sigh for awhile and then leaf again through the pages of the book of these unending anomalies within the Philippine government. And so to name the latest, this Corona's ill-gotten wealth scandal only gives one idea. Do we really have to go this further just to show how incapable we are in growing a healthy and well-fit country?

Look at the current situation of this beautiful country. All of the lawmakers are busy prosecuting Chief Justice Renato Corona for his ill-gotten wealth (and for his being the Messiah of former President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo). They are doing their best shots as fault-finders; presenting evidences of how Corona insulted the law of the land. Not to mention how did they acquire such evidences, not to add that maybe these evidences are works of a good pranksman and may not be reliable at all cost.

Everyone is busy dethroning the Chief Justice. No one bothers nor cares to think about the welfare of those Filipino people inflicted with the wrath of the natural disasters. Full attention is given to Corona rather than to the welfare of the citizens. To add salt on the gaping wound, this impeachment trial impedes the growth of our country. It exposes the flaws of our nation. It lessens the confidence of foreign investors in our capacity to make their businesses grow. It also shows that we do not know what's good for our country for we cannot interpret and implement the law which supports and builds our nation's ideals.

Yes, Juan dela Cruz has many trials in his hands. Our country is now facing a crisis dilemma. But, do we really have to have a crammed idea over these things? It is very easy. Know the priorities. If we really want to turn this country into a healthy one, learn to rank and treat things in a way they are considered nutritious to this land of ours. In that way, we can get the satisfaction we've been longing for and at the same time, get rid of the anomalies that ruin the good name of the Philippines.

(Of course, again, I did this.)
