Ang SONA ay puro SHOW(na)

Napansin niyo ba na ang ginamit na lenggwahe ng ating pinakamamahal(!!) na Pangulo sa pamamamahayag ng kaniyang talumpati noong nakaraang SONA ay Taglish? Maaaring isa itong paraan upang maintindihan ng higit na nakararaming Pilipino, lalo na ang masa ang kaniyang mga sinasabi. Subalit kung ako ay tatanungin, mas mabuti pa rin kung purong Filipino ang ginamit niya sa pananalita hindi lamanag kapag sinasabi niya ang magaganda at makubuluhang proyekto na pinaglaanan ng atensyon kung hindi sa buong presentasyon.

Naiintindihan ko na kinikilala ang ating bayan bilang isa sa mga bansang may malaking porsyento ng taong may abilidad makipagtalastasan sa Ingles kaya nga naman nagmistulang kabuteng biglang sumulpot at naglipana ang mga Call Center pero hindi ito sapat na dahilan upang gamitin ito lamang. Ang SONA ay hindi lamang dahilan upang maantala ang mga klase kung hindi isang lehitimong paraan upang malaman ng bawat mamamayan ang estado ng ating bansa.

Sa kasamaang palad, sa kabila ng paulit-ulit na pagyayabang ng mga ginawa, ginagawa at gagawin ng pahalaan para sa patuloy na ikasasagana ni Juan dela Cruz, mas nananaig pa rin sa ibabaw ng magagandang salita ni PGMA at masigaboing palakpakan ng manonood at kumakalam na sikmura ng nagugutom na tiyan ng karamihan sa ating kababayang lubog na lubog sa kahirapan.

SONA

SONA Baduy!!!!
The president has given her 8th SONA last Monday, 28 July 2008. I have only heard a few lines from the speech and so far I have heard not so good comments about it. I heard GMA talked about something with the telecommunication companies giving a more affordable load for their subscribers. I guess many people were happy about it. It turns out that GMA has not talk to any of the Telecomm companies about this issue. I’m also confused!

Anyways, another issue is about the President’s stand on family planning. I think she was on the Catholic Church’s side, but now one of her priorities is about population control. So she must have thought about the “unnatural” family program now that there are so many babies around with no possible good future.

There are no major changes on the president’s SONA today from her last one. I hope that there will be something she could actually do about the Philippines condition while she’s in position.

SONA

the SONA had brought up a lot of big issues in the Philippines and how those problems can be fixed. Gloria Macapagal Arroyo has sure said plenty of great things to better our country. like she said during SONA it is not easy to make this changes. but hopefully they will be able to fulfill their goals. plenty of the things that were mentioned during the SONA is to always better the country but that is always said. i'd like to see the Philippines eventually get through their rough times because i believe that there are plenty of things the Philippines can show to the whole world. there's just plenty of bad things happening in the country that are seen more rather than the good. which is why people believe that going abroad is better than staying in their own country. that alone is also a bad way of thinking. how can filipinos make their country better if they would rather leave the country instead of stay and actually help fix the problem?
