SONA OF THE PRESIDENT
AIMING FOR CHANGES
A critical essay on Pres. Aquino’s SONA

In every step that we encounter, our target is always to have an improvement in our life. Not only for ourselves, but for others’ sake also. Not only for our family or to our needs but for others too.
Seldom we can say, what about the beautiful, impressive and progressive other countries? We definitely want it and it is also our ambition that one day it would be the Philippines to be one of that rapturous countries. In fact, we are wondering why they can do it while we, are just stocked and trapped to one step, we cannot even reach the next simple step. That’s why we, as Filipinos are merged to help each other in committing a progressive life. When changes came first to us, there is also a need of assistance to totally grab the opportunity. Generally, in every country, we have this, what we call “President” to be the instrument for improvement and success.
As the Philippines faced a new image of administration, we Filipinos are still hoping and finding for a food to cure our hunger in terms of changes.
The first State of the Nation Address of the newly- elected president, Benigno Simeon Cojuanco Aquino III or recently known as P-Noy, was the mouth of every populace. It was becoming to be controversial.
As my research goes on, upon reading the whole- page of the address, from the topmost to lower part, I found out that there were many promises stated according to P-Noy. One of those is as he says, “Sa administrasyon po natin, walang kota-kota, walang tongpats, ang pera ng taumbayan ay gagastusin para sa taumbayan lamang. Sa agrikultura, makapagtatayo na tayo ng mga grains terminals, refrigeration facilities, maayos na road networks at post-harvest facilities.” If this will be granted and totally be real, this would be a very big help and pleasure to every concerned Filipino who seek for transformation.
With regards to his SONA, lots of reactions have been flowing to the internet, television, newspaper and any other forms of widespread media. Many people liked it for his encouraging and impressive address that he apprised. But there are people who don’t impressed for a half of his SONA is criticisms of the previous administration.
But as we all knew, in a bad part, some politicians are always making promises and will never ever be made. And we, who are just an ordinary man always meant to be disappointed for what they’ve done.
In my case, I do say that we still have the chance to cooperate the new administration in our simple way of helping, for we who let Aquino be the leader in our nation, let us just support, guide and pray for him to bring us to our dreams and ambitions.
