We have to choose the lesser evil. All people running for the presidency want to help boost the country, but corruption is everywhere. With NoyNoy staging an anti-corruption campaign, how will he be able to stop something that has already existed and is permeating nonstop? How can he pursue his goal of a corruption-free when he can’t prove his leadership skills. The presidency is not something he’ll just work on once he wins. Please compare NoyNoy’s achievements to Villar or even Gordon’s. NoyNoy’s authored bills were not even focused on uplifting the lives of the extremely poor people in the Metropolis. He even placed a bill (Productivity Incentive )that is authored by Mar Roxas in his site. Although it was just tagged as Authored resolution, but still that’s not his.

Villar has authored 44 bills. His life story was also been featured in Asiaweek, Forbes, AsiaMoney and Asian Business Review. We need to scrutinize all the candidates. Despite the C5 controversy, which he already explained himself in the senate once, but denied Jamby and other Senators of further interpellation, still I don’t see any reason for me not to vote for him, but I’m always open to new infos.

Gibo also has a good resume. He topped the bar exams and even went to study in the Harvard University for his Masters. Senator Dick Gordon is also a seasoned leader and a lawyer. Aside from his intellectual achievements, just look at Olongapo now and check his works as SBMA Chairman. Let those speak for themselves.

NoyNoy is a good man. My vote used to be his, but I changed my mind because he can’t even solve the Hacienda Luisita Issue. He is not the lesser evil, he’s not evil even, but look at the people surrounding him. How sure are we that his clan won’t control him when leadership-wise, he hasn’t shown much for us to decide. Please check their sites and read forums or blogs. Some of the commentors show links for you to read.

We owe it to our country. The best thing we can do for our country is not to settle for less. Instead, exhaust all search engines to get as many infos about our bet and the other candidates.

Hindi pwedeng puro puso lang ang gagamitin dito, Dapat may kakayahan at tiwala sa sarili din. Papano mong pamumunuan ang isang bansa kung kulang ka sa abilidad? Noynoy, Immature, isip bata, Hindi kayang mag desisyon ng mag isa, sangkatutak ang advisers. Kaya doon nlang ako sa alam ang gagawin at may tiwala sa sarili, hindi katulad ng iba diyan. MANNY VILLAR FOR PRESIDENT!

Kay Villar nalang ako. Kitang kita na kayang madecision na magisa. Di niya kailangan ng TRAPO na magdidikta sa kanya ng kung ano ang dapat gawin. Lahat naman ng politiko may mabuting hangarin. Pero kailangan natin ng presidente na makakagawa ng paraan na mapabuti ang bansa natin.

Ang sagot sa kung sino ang boboto simple lang. Wag yung nabuyo. Wag yung may record aning-aning. Dapat yung marunong sa buhya, may sariling diskarte. Dapat yung galing sa mahirap. At iyon si Manny Villar.

Sa ngayong halalan bago tayo boboto isipin nating mabuti kung sino talaga ang karapat dapat na magiging pangulo sa ating bansa dahil ilang taon tayong titiis sa mga sinungaling pulitiko na hindi naman totoo sa mga pinapangako nilang plataporma.
Ako ay isang OFW at nadistino sa Riyadh, Saudi Arabia sa kasamaang palad napasama sa recession. Sa pagkawala ng aking trabaho sinubukan kong lumapit sa gobyerno, government officials at pulitiko. Salamat at andyan ang OWWA kahit maliit ang pinautang ay okey na rin. Si Vice President Noli de Castro kahit papano ay nag reply naman sa aking mga sulat. Pero “ang Villar na yan ni isang reply sa ilang beses ko na sulat sa kanya ay WALA.”
Nung una’y noong nagtrabaho pa ako sa Riyadh napatanim kaagad sa isipan ko si Villar dahil nakita ko yung ads niya sa tv ang tungkol sa pagtulong sa mga OFW. Pero ‘nung sinubukan kong sumulat para humingi ng tulong sa kanya tulad ng livelihood project para sa mga OFW ni kusing na sulat ay wala. Andyan yung mga website niya, friendster at etc na kung saan sana siya ay makontak pero “wala. ” Kahit ngayon ang daming mga Pilipinong OFW ang stranded sa embassy ng Riyadh naghihintay ng mga tulong e..asan ba si Villar?
Dahil itong klaseng pulitiko ay hindi totoo sa mga hangarin niya ang pagtulong sa kapwa kasi nga iba ang hinahangad kundi ang magpapayaman lamang. Kitangkita naman dahil ang pinapayaman niya ay ang kanyang negosyo. Kaya yung 1 bilyon nagasto niya sa tv ads ay kanyang babawiin pag manalo sa halalan. Nakakapangilabot yung mga tv ads niya ginagamit ang issue ng mga OFW, mga bata sa kahirapan etc. Kaya todo kampanya ang trapong Villar na ‘to lahat na mga sikat kinuha si pacquiao, willie at iba pang mga sikat na artista basta ang sa kanya ay manalo lamang siya bahala na anong mangyari kay Juan.
Dito mo makikita na walang tiwala sa sarili dahil ang magpapanalo lamang sa kanya ay nakasalalay sa mga taong sikat sa lipunan. Ito lang ang masasabi ko, subukan nyo munang kilitisin bago magpasya para sa iboboto. Subukan munang humingi ng tulong , sumulat sa kanya “ay ewan…malaking tatlong question mark??? ang sagot dyan. At kung sasagot man ‘yan ay sigurong natatauhan na iyan dahil nababasa niya itong komento para sa kanya…

mEi, i encourage you to read the piece, manny villar's platform in its entirety. It was just written down because they needed a piece of paper that said, Manny Villar's Platform. Villar is actually on record saying, he doesn't believe in platforms. so he says one thing, and mean another. gibo teodoro doesn't have a written down platform, as far as i know. you can checkout, MLQ3's "The Invisible Platform," on his blog. It has links to all the other platforms like gordon's. Cheers, C

Manny Villar lang ang meron nyan!!!sagot sa problema ni JUAN”

Unquote:

Manny Villar says that he is the protector of abused OFW, but few months ago, there was an incident here in Doha were as 9 Filipinos who were abused by their syrian employer needed help and Villar didn’t do a thing nor our stupid government agencies, they were stranded for around 8 months, good thing that there was an american resident who pity those filipinos and spend his savings buying tickets for those stranded OFW just to be back home and he also gave 500 Riyal (Php6,000) each as a pocket money, after Villar hearing this, he immediately decided to extend his help in front of the media just to have exposure again.

Villar is a businessman, nothing more and nothing less, he will give but he’ll make sure that he’ll get double in return. Vote for him and 5 to 10 years from now we will be the new BANANA REPUBLIC OF THE PHILIPPINES.

the problem with Filipinos is that we elect a president and bank on him to solve our problems. and to find a quick fix for mindanao (and i don’t even know if you’ve ever been in mindanao) is as naive as noynoy’s solution for such a complex problem. there are problems that can’t be solved and there are those that can be. the sooner we discern one from the other and do our INDIVIDUAL part, maybe there is hope for this country.
