DO you think that corruption in the Philippines can fully be eliminated?? How?? To be honest, once a culture is already cultivated it cannot be easily trimmed unless there will be revolution...how 'bout you? what do you think??

Sad to say, corruption has found its way into most of our countrymen, they think corruption is a common to every politician, this is a wrongest way of dealing with Corrupt Govt Official. What i am thinking right now is organize a vigilant org to tackle the situation, i just dont know where to start, even the media are known to be corrupt nowadays.

corruption is a rampant thing in our government. i think that it cannot be stopped because if there are still people who think about for having more money and never think about others it will never be eliminated.

i can be fully eliminated but it will take a long time to do that. The corruption in our country seems like getting worse and worse. we should begin eliminating corruption within ourselves and to the small communities where we are.

I think corruption in the Philippines will never be eliminated, it will only be lessen but with the kind of discipline the people have right now, I dont know ....The country needs a leader who knows how to discipine the people and govern with a heart that cares for the people and not for the money of the people...

In all honesty i don't believe due to the very nature of politics that any country can expect to be free of corruption. Some country's have it to a far worse degree than others. With some it is limited to simple lies and coverups whilst at the other end there are backhanders, major coverups, embezzling of funds and mutiny as examples. With that in mind i don't think a revolution would achieve it either. That would merely exaggerate the situation and involve a wider number in potential hostilities. Sadly i think its just an ideal, rather than a state that could actually exist.

that issue didn't start just now so it's very hard to remove that from our society because even family members of the politicians nowadays adapted that concept just to earn money from the municipalities.
