You Are My Boss




A new President, a new government? I doubt it---- I maybe a doubting Thomas but I am no stupid. To start-- who is Pres. Aquino? What has he done? What kind of leader is he?---- Noynoy Aquino is what I call a modernized traditional politician no difference at all to the rest of the politicians in the Philippines who suck the blood of the country in corruption like a hybrid leech without contentment. During his inaguaral speech Aquino inspired the masses, awaken the snoozing Filipino political interest, re-captured the imagination of a new and better country and most of all scared the hell out of the corrupt incumbent politician infact some resigned before his first podium engagement.

As he utter the words "kayo ang boss ko" you are my boss, the cacophony of peoples enthusiasms displayed in shouting, chanting and hand clapping echoed to the rest of the world where every Filipino can hear. It was a very simple yet strong and powerful words a very precise words constructed by Aquino to make an impact and get the people's attention.

Aquino has a very difficult job to do--no doubt. But with the people behind him it should make him stronger. He act as an example, act like a normal citizen by using his common sense of changing some traffic rules that's been irritating commuters for ages----people was impressed.

Personally I wasn't able to vote nor vote for Noy noy but that is beside the point, we have a new President now, we have a new hope and a new inspiration for a better Philippines.

The era of rampant corruption has come to an end ( Gloria Arroyo ), the transition has started --- awaiting is the nation building from scratch. All the aspirations and changes that we eagerly been dreaming hopefully will materialize this time for the Filipinos and the Philippines. These will not happen overnight and there is no magic potion either. That's why I am still a doubter, but i would love to be proven wrong.
