Bangon Pilipinas standard bearer Bro. Eddie Villanueva and his vice-presidentiable, former SEC Chair Perfecto Yasay, I think the perfect tandem to run the country’s affairs. Ok by now, you all probably get the point that I support Bro. Eddie. And for a good cause.
I really like the word play in the phrase “Eddie Ako.” It does not only promote Bro. Eddie’s name but it also promotes the empowerment of the Filipino individual. Indeed we clamor for change, but really, great change can happen if we all start the positive change in our personal level.
I am very hopeful that this election will bring greater good to our country. May God be gracious and give us leaders who will not just empower themselves and enrich their lives, but leaders who have compassion for the poor and fear of the Lord.
Mr. Yasay said that their religious beliefs will not get in the way of their running the affairs of the nation. I agree with him. We have to follow the law of the land because that the authority over us. However, because of the faith of Bro. Eddie and Mr. Yasay, their fear of the Lord will keep them from doing things that will dishonor the Lord. You know what I mean when I say these things.
Let us not just vote wisely. Let us pray and ask God who is the best candidate. May God help the Philippines.
Anyway, the proclamation rally of Bangon Pilipinas was swamped with supporters. This is a good sign already.
