This is the time in the history of human civilization where technology is at its peak and technological advances continue to rise in myriads.
This is also the time when democracy in the Philippines faces one of the greatest challenges in its existence after it has been restored from the iron claws of a dictator.
__Democracy as defined is a government by the people, for the people, and of the people.
Yes, by the people whose inalienable right to suffrage has been the accessory or accomplice of the corrupt officials in pushing through their vested interests and motives.
Massive vote buying and vote shaving and padding become the barometer of most national and local winners whose rise to power was aided by the political alibi to alleviate poverty.
Eventually, these so - called leaders thwart the essence of democracy.
lf i had a power to change the history...the democracy in the phil.will stiil 4-ever.and not change to other history....Because pilipino are happy bec.they have freedom to do anything..but they abuse the freedom.........

Joan,
ReplyDeleteI am REALLY impressed with your vocabulary. keep up this kind of work and I can see your English improving a lot by the end of the year.Having a student put this much thought and effort into an assignment is very rewarding for a teacher :)
I did not see a connection between the advancements in technology and the Philippines Government. Were you suggesting that the use of computers in this coming election will help secure democracy?
