The Philippines is a
third- world country and government corruption doesn’t help to alleviate matters. What we need is true change. We need to know where the problem lies, and take steps to solve it.
Government corruption is a real issue which the Philippines
is facing today. Both local and national governments are plagues with cases of corruption and graft. Hearing
news reports of plundering funds is no surprise, the most
famous case being the misuse
of the Priority Development
Assistant Funds or more known as the scam “pork barrel.”
The Filipino masses are entitled to feel distrust of the government. Understanding
the root cause of corruption within the Philippine government is crucial.
The article is very informative as it provides a historical background on how the government shows dishonest. We appreciate that
it was an honest and direct comment, not a sugar-coating of our government’s real state.
