Letter To The President

Honorable Rodrigo Duterte
President of the Republic of the Philippines
Malacañang Palace, Manila

Dear Mr. President:
                   
       Congratulations! It has officially been 2 years since you became the Philippines’ President. As one of your citizens, I am hoping that you fulfill all of the promises you made during your campaign. Those who voted for you expect change and hope that because of your victory will achieve it.


          I am however concerned about your promise to stop the drug menace in the Philippines. Impossible as it seemed for the past two years I have seen improvement in this act. Although it was quite successful there were a few innocent people involved, this raised the Filipino citizens’ disbelief in your program and how you are going to continue to execute it.

          Another issue that ponders in my mind is the fact that you are a straight-talking man, I am worried that the children that watched you spitting out illiterate or curse words may somehow adapt to the way you speak, causing them to grow up without manners or be disrespectful.

          The last issue that has been bothering me is the never ending issue about corruption, I am aware that we both know that the system is broken and because of this me along with my fellow countrymen knowing that you also want to achieve change demand it from you. With that in mind I am worried because at times you tend to show signs of taking the whole country apart, without thinking about the next step. If this goes on then it would be placing our country in a position worse than before.

          As this letter ends I am wishing that these issues that I mentioned may soon have a solution. Just to clarify this composition was not meant to offend you or the way you run our country. With the remaining 6 years of your reign as the Philippines’ President I hope that you will finally make the Philippines great again.

 Yours sincerely,
Jullia Xyla Reoliquio

Filipino: Wika ng Saliksik

-
  Cebuano , Hiligayno, Ilokano,  Kapampangan , Kinaray-a, at  Waray Waray, hindi maipagkakaila na ang Pilipinas ay bansang napakaraming lengwahe. hindi mo akalaing sa napakaliit na bansa ay may mahigit 170 na lengwahe, ngunit dimo akalaing may isang lengwaheng kumokonekta ng lahat ng Pilipino, ang Wikang Filipino.  Isang buwan kada taon ay isinasagawa ang "Buwan ng Wika", kadalasan ito ay nagaganap sa buwan ng Agosto. Ngayong taon ang tema ay, "Filipino, Wika ng Saliksik!" at sa aking palagay ang temang ito ay dapat bigyan ng pansin. Sa panahon ngayon ang batayan ng talino ay ang pagkabihasa sa pagsasalita ng wikang ingles, sa panahon ngayon kapag tagalog lang ang alam mo natatawag kang walang alam. Ganito ang estado ng ating buhay ngayon na tila'y minamaliit nila ang wikang sariling atin, tila kinakakahiya nila ito,ngunit hindi nila naisasaisip ang kahalagahan nito sa ating kultura, at ating sarili.  Simula pa nung una ay hindi na natin maipagkakaila

A Father or A Dictator?

-
President Rodrigo Roa Duterte, the 16th President of the Philippines delivered his State of the Nation Address last July 23, 2018. The said event he said some words that certainly left a mark and caught the attention of many Filipinos'. Because of these various words that were let out we couldn't help thinking is the President the father that we think of him to be or a dictator in disguise? "Your concern is human rights, mine is human lives" This was just one of the most talked about quote that the President mentioned during the said event. Although this was considered touching for some, i wondered on why he said that. It was in the month of August 2017 when he said "Shoot those who are part of the drug activity. If they are obstructing justice, you shoot them.” This statement contradicts what the Philippine Human Rights stand for. And this is where my concerns were raised about the president slowly becoming a dictator. One of the first acts that was implemen
