Sinners and Criminals in the Philippines

Foreign countries like China, Singapore, Japan, Malaysia, Australia, Brunei, Vietnam, Taiwan, etc - the laws of such countries are respected and strictly enforced. It is no fun if one were a sinner or a criminal touring such countries. In the Philippines, however, the only Catholic country in Asia, where the laws of our land are not that respected nor seriously enforced, it is more fun if one were a sinner or a criminal as a tourist. Oh yes, indeed, the joys of Corruption as a way of daily life is more fun in the Philippines. Look at the main tourist attraction in the Philippines: the impeachment trial of the chief justice of the Supreme Court - a small fish compared to the bigger fishes hardly charged, arrested, tried in court, and incarcerated. The powers-that-be, however, are more occupied in protecting and defending the culture of corruption as blessed by God daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly in the Philippines. Ours, indeed, is the most corrupt nation in all of Asia. We Filipinos have even been educated to believe that a stupid man is more likely to be truthful than a man who is intelligent. And so, our government officials today acting as judges in the impeachment case against the top magistrate of our Republic - take advantage of our culture of corruption by pretending to be not as corrupt as the corrupt system of education has made them. It is the same old history. Our God-fearing politicians do not care about life in the next generation. They only care about the results of the next election. In the meantime, life in general among Filipinos in the Philippines can be characterized as the competition to be the criminal or be the victim of the criminals. God Bless the Philippines! Thank you Jesus! Poch Suzara
