Have you seen Juana Change's "Bayani"? Here, take a look:
Deep, huh? That is the current situation of our country the Philippines right now. I almost burst into tears when I saw the ending of the video.
From the last time I heard from our president, she was even proud that we are one of the leading countries to send workers abroad. How can we be fucking proud with that? We sacrifice the best of our people and make them servants abroad just to send money back home for their families. And the ones left behind are the idiots who know nothing otherwise to vote wisely.
How long are we gonna keep this up?
Since the beginning, I've never liked the idea of going abroad just to work. Why can't our country provide jobs here for our fellow countrymen? How long are we still gonna owe the World Bank more money even before our babies are brought to this world? How long are we still gonna send our hardworking citizens abroad just for fucking remittances to survive poverty?
Do we really need a hero on this age of corruption, fraud & poverty? Why do we keep on reaching out to the sun in the sky for a certain hero rather than doing what we ought to do right here right now?
My lil bro Lex asked if anyone from the government had already watched Juana Change's video "Bayani". I told him that even if they did, they have already mastered the power to ignore on these kind of things. Sick, huh?
And so we divert ourselves to cheap entertainment.
====================================================================
*"Bayani" is a Filipino term for "Hero".
*If you didn't notice, the man who appeared shining at the ending of the video is the country's national hero Jose Rizal (the book he's holding with the word "Noli" at the top indicated that it was Jose Rizal's "Noli Me Tangere")
