National Election

National election in the Philippines is not about candidates, but about a vote-buying contest among the cheaters who are even willing to murder each other for the sake of winning. After the votes have been secretly counted and the dead buried, the winners are usually the ones who brag to high heavens that national elections in the Philippines have always been clean and honest and democratic and historically peaceful. In the meantime, the nation, instead of moving forward with new and fresh ideas, it only moves backward with old and obsolete ideas. Poch Suzara
