Emmanuelle,
It’s always gratifying to hear that our real brothers are engaged in programs such as enterpreneurship development, tax campaigns, relief operations, health services, agricultural modernization, maintenance of peace and order, development of education through scholarships and trainings, and eventually, the construction of school building donations.
When I was young and even now during the summer I like to play the three leg game during our association picnics. A game where one partner is taller than the other and one of their legs are tied together at the ankles. Thus a three leg is formed. The object of the game is to race with your partner with only three legs. This makes your actions to be in unison with your partner in order to win. Work together and you’ll win.
Wow, the FFCCCII is the Philippine government’s efficient partner in nation-building! Our hope is that we learn the lessons of history and that the Buy Pinoy campaign is not again aimed at certain groups because of pressure of new competition at home.
There was a time when laws were enacted against our real brothers in support of protection of their brothers. Should we be vigilant and careful on the new directives and laws in the name of nationalism and protection of local jobs?
We should not close our eyes collectively to new ideas and investments of our new brothers from Korea coming into our shores since each one may hold a promise.
Group think is different from think tanks so use the positive individualism that is screened through and not from the group.
