Macho Image
For a government that instill to its populace the values of being less while the people in government wants more in life is very disturbing. How can we defend our land if the government cannot defend itself from its own demise.
The Philippine government is claiming what it say is "integrity of our national sovereignty" by reaffirming Philippine sovereignty over a part of the Spratly Islands and Scarborough Shoal. I never thought that our government has the backbone to take action that might complicate the dispute over these islands.
As I see it as an ordinary worker, if the Philippine government can't even act decisively on workers issues and whatever affects the local populace daily survival life should be morally prepared to fail. It can't even solve the conflict in Mindanao!. The Philippine government is dealing with foreign policy as if they are dealing with its own populace. We all know in the end that this government will be innovative in protecting its mistakes at the expense of the Filipino dignity.
We are just giving ourselves a reason to rely more on our much loving American partner.
