"We want to emphasise that we all have a stake in our government, in our new government. If we want to see change, we have to be the change that we want to see in our government." Source: Advocacy Beyond Borders

1. THE PEOPLE’s VICTORY<br />The burden of this victory is how their energies could be channeled and how do we guide them in the changing process. Keeping in mind, that change begins in each one of us, if we want to change our society and country. Things can be done if we have the passion and character to change. Let us not wait only for the government to do something; together we can support P.NOY push ahead with his plans and programs. <br /> <br />It works on the principle that his governance and leadership system espoused are in place to help, not hinder the works that need to be done, and the dreams that need to be realized with a degree of power treated as valuable individuals. Trust their judgment as you hold them accountable for their involvement. Pushing them to take action will impart a sense of pride, promote vigilance and reinforce self-worth.<br /> <br />This shift is in process right now. It's challenging. But this is the time to prepare and get ready. quot;
Nations can only be truly changed if human hearts are changed, describing the realities of our era; the Church, the people and the Government has a primary role in making that happen under a good and solid leadership.quot;
<br /> <br />We will strengthen the process of consultation and feedback. We will strive to uphold the constitutional right of citizens to information on matters of public concern. We relived the spirit of people power during the campaign. Let it take us to good and effective governance. Those who believe in people power put the welfare of others before their own. P.NOY<br />Daily life is the place where the young discover God and develop themselves. Our challenge is to model to them patiently what they want to be and how they may want to be without grand expectation. “Modeling” is as old as the art of teaching itself. One learns by “identification” with the teachers. Relationship serves as a unique vehicle for the transmission of values. We can improve our qualities and acquire new skills by “modeling” on those who already have them. This is evident with great teachers like Gandhi, Confucius and Jesus Christ. We are challenged to do no less. Values are best expressed in actions we do and understand in events we experience. Movements and small groups can study the various ways by which we can initiate change in our spheres of influence and encourage each other to become “Role Models” for our family, peers and community. This crusade can raise consciousness to reflect on Filipino positive traits and changing negative traits. <br />Ang tadhana ng Pilipino ay babalik sa tamang kalagayan, na sa bawat taon pabawas ng pabawas ang problema ng Pinoy na nagsusumikap at may kasiguruhan sila na magiging tuloy-tuloy na ang pagbuti ng kanilang sitwasyon. Ang ating pangunahing tungkulin ay ang magsikap na maiangat ang bansa mula sa kahirapan, sa pamamagitan ng pagpapairal ng katapatan at mabuting pamamalakad sa pamahalaan. Ang unang hakbang ay ang pagkakaroon ng tuwid at tapat na hanay ng mga pinuno. Magsisimula ito sa akin. Sisikapin kong maging isang mabuting ehemplo. Hinding hindi ko sasayangin ang tiwalang ipinagkaloob ninyo sa akin. Sisiguraduhin ko na ganito rin ang adhikain ng aking Gabinete at ng mga magiging kasama sa ating pamahalaan. Naniniwala akong hindi lahat ng nagsisilbi sa gobyerno ay corrupt. Sa katunayan, mas marami sa kanila ay tapat. Pinili nilang maglingkod sa gobyerno upang gumawa ng kabutihan. Ngayon, magkakaroon na sila ng pagkakataong magpakitang-gilas. P.NOY<br />We’ll have more interesting topics and issues in the next few days….<br /> <br />
