    PNOY’s SONA 2015

    As President Benigno Aquino III delivered his final state of the nation address, he noted

    the past issues concerning about the corruption of former President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo.

    Pnoy said that we Filipinos can “move-on” when justice is attained. In addition to that, our

    president gratified the accomplishments that his administration achieved. Fighting against

    corruption and poverty is the main point of Pnoy’s straight path which we heard from his

    campaign back then. Pnoy quoted “Corruption was the root of our people's suffering” and he

    further added “when there is no corruption, there will be no poverty” which is ideally true for

    such Filipinos wherein high officials of the government enjoy fancy living while many people

    are still suffering. Pnoy mentioned matters regarding tax evasion wherein many were caught

    proving that there is no escape within Pnoy’s reign. He also exploited some of the nation’s

    developments such as 8% growth rate in the manufacturing sector from 2010-2014, claimed that

    our unemployment rate dropped at 6.8% last year and considered as the lowest recorded in a

    decade, decrease of out of school youth in our country due to PPPP’s beneficiaries, upgraded the

    learning system in our country such as k-12 program which falls under the education sector, 89.4

    million Filipinos are already member of Philhealth program, Pnoy served 25,257 sitios out of

    32,441. Issues regarding transportation such as the MRT unresolved problems came into Pnoy’s

    attention and said that they already have a plan of purchasing a new MRT train and improving

    more of the railway system. Additional budget was offered to the military sector regarding

    transportation. Aquino cited the issue with concern of the Bangsamoro Basic Law, imparting us

    that “how many lives would have to suffer in order to attain peace in Mindanao region?” Reports

    are still ongoing with respects to the killing of Muslims in the said region. When the president
    started talking about the passing of the “Anti-Dynasty law”, he received the loudest applause

    from his audiences. He also requests that the next administration should continue to uphold the

    same advocacy. From what I’ve noticed, our president did not mention issues regarding China’s

    expansionism in relation to West Philippine Sea argument which is still ongoing up to now, our

    president should tackle more about this issue because we also have rights regarding the said

    territory. He also didn’t confront the Priority Development Assistance Fund wherein many

    politicians were involved. I found the SONA 2015 a kind of interesting due to Pnoy’s way of

    delivering his speech which is appealing to students like us and more spectators who watched

    and listened to the said event. Prior to that, Pnoy’s achievement called the attention of many

    citizens. Our president encountered different problems, issues and difficulties with our country

    though he did not reach all of what he wanted for the Philippines, he did his best to help the

    Philippines change and develop in terms of the way of living. I hope that the next who will take

    the position as the president of the Philippines will notice the corruption within the senate, help

    decrease unemployment rate and out of school youths, and focus on the peace and order with

    regards to the Bangsamoro Basic Law.
