A lot of Filipinos have been waiting for this opportunity to exercise their right to vote for the new officials of the nation who will be governing for the next six years. Much has been seen on TV, heard over the radio, and written over the newspapers. The present administration is bombarded with "issues of corruption and illegitimacy of governance" (rod4phil, 2010 Philippine Election New Hope, http://www.bloggersunite.org/event/2010-philippine-election-new-hope). Filipinos all over the world are anticipating for the elections as they make a move to bring out a new hope for every Filipino to have a better future.
As this event draws near, get to know the people who are most likely to run for different positions, think over their backgrounds and their past accomplishments as a government official. Be a registered voter by registering at the COMELEC offices near you and make your hopes be heard through the tip of your pen.
Pray to our Almighty Father for that He may guide us through all our struggles and give us wisdom in choosing our leaders. Believe that we can get a hold of the future by exercising your right to vote!
We can make a change. We can BE the change!
