We blame the leaders for being corrupt but where did this people come from and who elected them to be placed in those positions? Those people in power are just representative samplings of the same kind or quality of people, as a whole, who elected them! As the saying goes, "You reap what you sow".
Agree with your assessment of corruption in the Philippines. The magnitude ranges from the lowliest barangay official to the highest elected officials. It's so ingrained in Philippine society that it may take decades or generations to resolve until then the Philippines remains a Third World country.
Look at all the surrounding Asian countries. All were destroyed by past wars and now look at all of them with thriving infrastructures. PI, unfortunately, so very far behind.
There is corruption big time in PSA. Me and my 8 sibling dont have birth certificate because we all was born in our house. We just registered late in our 20s. It is not easy to get a late registration. The mayor and the congressman our our relatives but we still have to complete all the paper works. It took us months before we were able to complete the docs. Walang palakasan.
You are right on all counts. What makes it worse in a Developing Country is that the severity and the impact are felt in a magnitude far greater than in a Developed Country. That is because it puts the less developed country at distinct of not have the wealth to make corrections and change course quickly that can take generations to overcome. It's therefore a situation of two steps forward one step backward and the resulting effect is People suffer tremendously.
The problem with the Philippines system is the constant change of Government which is every six years. When a new President is elected he brings in his own team. One of those team members will be the head of the LTFRB who would also have his own team. To get rid of the employees of the previous president, the new LTFRB Head will declare a budget of "One Peso" for the entire LTFRB department which means the key employees of LTFRB will have to leave because there's no budget. Once the new LTFRB Head has his new team in place, those new employees have six years to milk the system as much as possible before they're replaced by the next oncoming President. How do LTFRB employees earn extra money? One way is to issue one taxi license to several parties and also demand fees to expedite approval or renewal of taxi licenses.
The Philippines should "copy and paste" the way Singapore deal with crimes and criminals. Gua Hua Ping aka Alice Leal Gua should have been jailed ASAP when she committed perjury or lying under oath right after the hearing. Jail would actually punish her as well as "protect" from who would silence her. I see dedication in Hontiveros, Gatchalian, Tulfo, and others. They were polite and proper even though Hua Ping "Alice" continue to lie. A less than restrained interrogator would yell at her.
You are right , system is slow in the Philippines . Grandpa there’s a higher connection and as you know money talks . Especially being given by millions or billions to close their eyes.
Corruption, always happening in the Philippines that’s why there’s no improvement . There’s a lot of people or persons wants to be in the politics because they want to be reach right away. It’s very sad.
Indeed, you raise a valid point, sir. Allow me to pose a hypothetical scenario for your consideration. If you were to find yourself in a similar position, do you believe you would be immune to the temptations of corruption?
No! Did you hear about a mayor (?) in Bagio who was offered a brive to allow a POGO operation there. He turned down the offer. There are still good and honest people on the Philippines.
still in shock as the news said she has $6 million in assets!!!!!!!!!! hmm...how on earth does a CHINESE mayor get $6 MILLION dollars in assets here in the Philippines. I want that job. lol!
I was born under a Pilipino mom and I can't even qualify for dual citizenship because I forgot to declare when I was 21 back in the early 1990s per the 1987 Philippines Constitution. Actually, I didn't know. It's not like we had the internet then to know these things and who hangs out at the immigration office or consulate anyway? And here you have corrupt Chinese working with corrupt fellow Pilipinos giving these people fake citizenship. Totally not fair. Both my parents are Filipino. My dad became an American in the 1950s and my mom was still a Pilipino citizen the day I was born. Malas lang ipanaganak ako yung taon na 1972 sa America vs 1973 😢.
Hi sir hope you're safe and well! Been in U S since 1976 and planning to travel to Philippines for a month. I lost my birth certificate and my Philippine passport was taken away from me when i took an oath for my U S citizenship. As of now al i have is my U S passport, Could you please be so kind to give me feedback to what shall i do next.. Thank you .
To me, besides the fingerprints and all that as evidence of her fraudulent citizenship. She says she was born in Tarlac. As a 100% Fil-Am Kapampangan myself, can she even speak Capampangan? Most people in Pampanga and Tarlac take pride in able to speak that local language. If she can't even speak a few sentences in that, I know for sure she is a fraud. You got Koreans in Angeles City that can speak a little Kapampangan even if Tagalog or English is their second primary language besides Korean.
Corruption will NOT stop until the people vote for QUALIFIED people (like Vlogger Grandpa) , and EDUCATED people who are are not in the corrupted dynasty ! Keep spreading the word Grandpa.
Leave the garbage news behind, at your age enjoy life and don’t get involved with the non-sense, let the government do their part, here in the U.S. millions of people are complaining and still U.S. is sinking and that means you can only complain so much and still nothing else will happen, your retirement stuff won’t get affected, this will eat you up, avoid more wrinkles, no wonder you look so old, have peace of mind and concentrate on your health.
Believe me when I say I'm enjoying my life. But enjoying does not mean closing my eyes to what's going in my neighborhood. That will come when I'm dead. 😉
@@vloggergrandpa2707 Believe me your video won’t change anything but your self inflicted stress, look at the U.S. we are all corrupted here with all the financial abuse from illegal immigrants & homeless people sucking our financial future, it’s no different like the Philippines, whether you’re in the Philippines or U.S. you are just trading different kinds of problems, U.S. has a lot of limitations as well and it’s getting worst, at the end of the day take a look at the mirror and give your time and energy to what it is worth, reward yourself of what you deserve, you will thank nobody but yourself.

Grandpa, thank you but please, stop your wishful thinking about the ways of the Philippine government and its people to change. One day, we would be out of this world yet their ways and means of running their system of government would be even worse. The only strong leader that I could see is “the one up there.” Today, they got one Alice and how many more you think tomorrow? YUN. Btw, keep walking and talking. Thank you PO!
they need a trump kind of guy so rich money cant buy him. the proplem is its the same family's all the time . look at the vice president made coments defending this mayor even her father haha
