DO YOU LOVE GUIHULNGAN AND THE POOR, DO YOU LOVE THE PHILIPPINES?

LOCAL GRAFT AND CORRUPTION SHOULD NOT BE OVERLOOKED FOR THE GOOD OF ALL(IT HURTS THE POOR THE MOST.-BISHOP SOCRATES VILLEGAS - http://dine.racoma.com.ph/campaign-for-peace/fight-it-or-perish-fighting-graft-and-corruption/). LOCAL CORRUPTION CONTRIBUTED TO THE HARDSHIP OF FILIPINOS BECAUSE IT ADDED TO THE HEAVY BURDEN CARRIED BY OUR NATION AND THAT BADLY AFFECTED THE ECONOMY BECAUSE WHEN LOCAL OFFICIALS ARE CORRUPT THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT UNITS THAT ARE RECEIVING INTERNAL REVENUE ALLOTMENT (IRA) FROM THE NATIONAL GOVERNMENT WHICH IS VERY BIG ARE ONLY WASTED DUE TO CORRUPTION, THE ECONOMY SUFFERS AND IT IS TRUE THAT THE POVERTY-STRICKEN PINOYS SUFFERS THE MOST. ATTENTION PRESIDENT NOYNOY AND OMBUDSMAN >> (SEE & READ THIS) FIGHT IT OR PERISH! (Fighting Graft and Corruption) – full article written by Fr. Socrates Villegas, Bishop of Balanga. - “How shall we describe graft and corruption in our country? It is systemic. It is rewarding. It hurts the poor the most.” >> GO TO >> http://dine.racoma.com.ph/campaign-for-peace/fight-it-or-perish-fighting-graft-and-corruption/ . NOW, THE QUESTION IS: Are you for the people who are abused or for the corrupt mayor who got his way? WE HAVE SEEN THIS CORRUPT ACT NOT ONLY ONCE BUT MANY TIMES HOWEVER ONE CORRUPT ACT CAUGHT IS ENOUGH EVIDENCE THAT CORRUPTION DID HAPPEN AND STILL HAPPENING IN GUIHULNGAN. IF WE HAVE NOT FILED A CASE SOME PEOPLE WILL SAY WHY & CRITICIZE? WHEN WE'VE FILED A CASE THERE ARE SOME PEOPLE TOO THAT WILL SAY WHY & CRITICIZE? AND WHEN WE EXPOSE SUCH CORRUPT ACT, AGAIN SOME PEOPLE WILL SAY WHY AND CRITICIZE? WHERE WOULD WE POSITION OURSELVES? THE PROBLEM HERE IS WITH SOME PEOPLE. WE HAVE HERE A MAYOR WHO WAS CAUGHT COMMITTING GRAFT & CORRUPTION (A CASE WAS FILED. IT CAN BE REFILED-WE'LL ASK A LAWYER) AND WE ARE EXPOSING THE PROOF AND FACTS BUT SOME PEOPLE WILL JUST CRITICIZE US ON SOME WRONGDOING INSTEAD OF SUPPORTING AND ENCOURAGING SUPPORT AGAINST AN UNLAWFUL ACT COMMITTED BY A MAYOR. THERE ARE EVIDENCE TO SHOW. WE ARE LOOKING FOR THE BEST SOLUTION WHERE WE CAN BE UNITED TO FIGHT CORRUPTION AND GUARD OUR TAXES AND HELP OUR PLACE, AND OUR ECONOMIC LIFE TO IMPROVE AND PROGRESS. (IT'S EASY FOR ANY ONE TO SAY STOP TALKING ABOUT CORRUPTION PARTICULARLY IF HE IS NOT REALLY FAMILIAR WITH THE PRESENT SITUATION OR HAS NO KNOWLEDGE WHAT IS GOING ON IN A PLACE BECAUSE HE IS NOT IN GUIHULNGAN ANYMORE OR IF HE HAS A NICE LIFE WHERE HE IS NOW AND HAS NOT EXPERIENCED THE HARDSHIP THE PEOPLE ARE EXPERIENCING IN OUR PLACE OR BECAUSE HE/SHE IS A GOV’T. EMPLOYEE WHO MUST PROTECT HIS SUPERIOR, FOR EXAMPLE THE MAYOR IN FOCUS. HE/SHE WILL OPPOSE ANY ATTACK DUE TO SCANDAL OR CONTROVERSY ABOUT THE MAYOR EVEN IF THE SCANDAL IS TRUE.) HOWEVER, WHEN WE TALK ABOUT LOVE OF COUNTRY, LOVE OF FELLOW FILIPINOS OR GUIHULNGANONS, HELPING THE HARD UP PEOPLE DUE TO BAD ECONOMY BECAUSE OF CORRUTPION- (http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#!/album.php?aid=2041694&id=1211464215 , THE QUESTION TO ASK IS THIS - ARE YOU PART OF THE SOLUTION OR ARE YOU PART OF THE PROBLEM? SO WHICH PART ARE YOU? IT WILL BE IN YOUR CONSCIENCE WHEN YOU RESPOND INCORRECTLY.

Let's Stop Corruption at the Source

I was and I am against corruption in government, and my advocacy and cause is to- ‘STOP CORRUPTION At The Source!’ WALA KO NANGHILABOT SA PERSONAL LIFE SA MAYOR ONLY THIS THAT PERTAINS TO HIS POSITION IN RELATION TO HIS JOB IN THE GOVERNMENT THAT INCLUDES HIS HANDLING OF TAXPAYERS MONEY WHERE IT IS INCIDENTAL WHEN WE CHECK ON CORRUPTION AND WHO WOULD BE PRIMARILY RESPONSIBLE WITH REGARDS TO POSITION IN THE GOVT IT IS UNDENIABLE THAT THE MAYOR IS THE OFFICIAL AT THE TOP OF THE LOCAL GOVT UNIT AND IN POWER AS CHIEF EXECUTIVE. Hence, it cannot be avoided, and to investigate further on corruption if corruption was actually committed founded on what we have witnessed in Barangay Buenavista, Guihulngan where the unlawful act was actually committed by Mayor Reyes and what evidence credible enough for the public to believe we found out there are photographs, actual pictures not photoshop as evidence and so it is very clear to us that the mayor was the one responsible with regards to his position, in fact, we have witnesses as evidence. Examining and analyzing the evidences we found out that he was really the one ordering the unlawful act that did happen in Barangay Buenavista, Guihulngan.because he was actually there during the incident was happening. When we started or have moved on to guard our taxes as one of our aim he was there on the way because of his position. And the precedent incident in Barangay, Buenavista makes him vulnerable and so it is inevitable that he will surely be affected, that all fingers will point directly at him when we define and describe graft and corruption and the mayor doing such unlawful and punishable act under Philippine laws should be prosecuted and punished. Therefore, he is the official on focus. He is the official when we discuss corruption in Guihulngan.

WHY WE ARE AGAINST GRAFT AND CORRUPTION?

At certain points it is understandable that individuals working in the government will side with corrupt official for self-preservation or to protect their jobs for their own interest and advantage and furthermore for those people to side with the corrupt official because they have gained profits due to the official in power that helped them acquired a contract with the government and commission due to the transaction entered into by the bidder and the government official in power and the secrecy of such with regards to the documents signed and the amount of money released which will result into graft and corruption because there is no transparency in government transaction because the people did not demand for the transparency of government transaction. And that transaction that is not transparent to the public is personal, unfair and selfish of them making it. That is unacceptable when it comes to morality and to anti-corruption principles. Morality and anti-corruption principle is to think and care about the welfare of the people especially for those who cannot help themselves, and to think for those people who cannot eat three times a day and in regards to this to protect their interests in the government fund. These money from peoples’ taxes that have been wasted into corrupt government officials pockets and into unscrupulous individuals purse because of the graft and corruption act they have committed is one of the main factors that contributed to peoples’ poverty and why there is poverty and bad economy that affected the life of the people especially the poor and has made their life miserable, and that is also why we have insurgency problem. This is easy and simple to understand if a person cares about the poor and the country but if not and this person only thinks about for his own selfish interest thus he cannot understand the morality in government and the anti-corruption principles . When a person think about love of country, that means the people living in the country as well, in our case the Guihulnganons or the Filipinos and their life, especially the poorest of the poor, instantly this person will become unselfish, this person will gain a caring attitude, he will hate graft and corruption and then he can acquire morality and right principles for after all this people that he or we are concern about, THE REASONS WHY WE ARE AGAINST GRAFT AND CORRUPTION – not only that it is wrong and unlawful but it is a necessity in protecting public interest for the good of all, and the public as we understood are our kababayans, townspeople, friends, the no-blood relation and the blood related individuals and our family that we arise from our passivity and act, shun and oppose the corrupt government officials that are abusive and have abused their power and corrupted the government just for their own greedy, selfish, political and personal interests. And so because of that when realization strikes upon a person and morality in government and anti-crruption principles is understood, and enlightenment sets in the person then he will be fighting for his rights, guarding his taxes, demand righteous, honest governance and transparency in each and every government transaction and accounting report for government money spent by any government official out of the government fund, he will become meticulous and cautious in seeing government projects done well and genuinely completed. All because of a person’s love of country, love of people because of the love of God. The results of the person’s care and vigilance is the development of the city/municipality, the improvement of poor peoples’ lives and betterment of government officials governance, arising economy, peace and progressive people insignificant of whether the move against graft and corruption is political or non-political as long as it’s genuine concern for the public interest and in fighting against graft and corruption and the change to a better way and government is appropriate, commendable and exemplary . We are doing ourselves a favor when we do this, so please come and support us and we will end the miserable life especially of the poor. “that they may have life, and may have it more abundantly.” - John 10:10 (Douay-Rheims Bible) into a life worth living for. We all want to see our economy arising and better and our lives peaceful and progressive and our place beautiful and developed, and our environment clean and green, etc. Me and you can make a different. Let us help each other in fighting graft and corruption for the sake of all of us and our country especially to the poor and the poorest of the poor. Let's go, act and care.
