Why Nicanor Perlas' Candidacy Excites Me

Everything about Nicanor Perlas' bid for the Presidency of the Philippines in 2010 excites me. Nick's New Politics is refreshing as it signifies a real Change that is integrative,sustainable and participative."Tayong lahat ang kailangan upang mabago ang ating bansa."  Nick embodies my own vision of a New Philippines that is spiritually enthused with a participative governance that truly lives up to the meaning of democracy as a  government of the people , for the people and by the people.

Nick's platform for a New Philippines has six pillars that is the emerging light behind the curtain of darkness that shrouds our beloved Philippines now. 

1-Eradicate Poverty and Enhance Quality of Life-Ginhawa is the operative word here.The ginhawa,the hope  that we crave and want. 
2-Advance Moral and Effective Governance-put a stop to corruption.
3-Uphold the Integrity of Creation-our ecology, our environment is our source of life so lets nurture not destroy.
4-Build Partnerships for Social Justice- "tayong lahat ang sagot" as the government works together with civil society and the business sector to provide solutions to the challenges the country faces in a participatory form of governance.
5-Promote Creative Education and Inner Change- the change from within of each individual translates to the change in others and the transformation of our environment, our society  because we are all interconnected. "Ang lahat ng bagay ay magkaugnay."
6-Mainstream Visionary Initiatives- replicate and multiply the success of innovative and excellent initiatives in all fields and areas of endeavor.

This curtain of shadows is lifting to reveal a bright tomorrow that we are working on now,in the present.The Filipino people want Change.I want Change. The US electorate voted for Change in the last election and installed President Obama in the White House. Today, the Japanese electorate voted for Change and kicked out the ruling LDP political party after 5 decades

Nicanor Perlas embodies the genuine Change I want in governance. I will hold steadfast that vision of a New Philippines that Nicanor Perlas embodies and will vote for Nick in 2010.
