Random thought whilst in Singapore - NAKAKAINGGIT SILA. Upon reading, corruption USED to be widespread until they had leader, Lee Kuan Yew, who had zero tolerance policy for corruption. Cut to this day, Singapore is thriving. A beautifully developed city, smooth roads, a gorgeous airport , proper public transportation, stunning infrastructure and yet I still see green around the city. Although, after reading, the temptation of greed from officials are still there BUT once they are caught they are punished immediately. Paano na tayo Pilipinas? Ano na kaya mangyayari? I pray so hard we will all collectively vote for a leader who will want to fight corruption one day. Sana talaga. Sayang ... Pilipinas. We have beautiful mountains, the best beaches and islands in the world (for me) GREED has stolen the opportunity for this country to reach its FULL beautiful potential. ☹️ sana.. Sana talaga one day. Maybe not in my lifetime but I pray for all the future filipinos. But we have to stand up for that now. Haaaaay. Naiiyak ako.
To our lawmakers,
Stop victim blaming.
Treat victims with compassion and sensitivity. Reliving a traumatic experience is horrific, more so in a public hearing.
Stop barraging, asking “why did it take you 5 years? You should’ve filed a complaint immediately”. Victims are scared. They feel ashamed.
And this kind of public shaming will not help victims to come out.
Let me remind our senators, you serve the people. You are not gods. Do not act like it.
