Hello philippines: Opposition or Administration?

For me both opposition and administration are not worthy for our votes they are all the same. Better we will not vote. Those politicians are not worthy for the positions they are running specially the senatorial candidates. We move to abolish the senate instead. Maybe this way the budgets for having a senate body specially the pork barrels for each senator has will be used to a more suitable projects. How about that?

i am not yet a voter but i have quite a clear view of our politics scene. i guess i would vote for the opposition. not straight though. some of the opposition members are "all-talk" too. one thing is for certain. if i was given the chance to vote this year, i would never vote tito sotto or tessie aquino-oreta. those people are traitors to the who didn't prove anything good during their term in the senate.

its not opposition or administration but its who do the best job. for me im not the type of person who vote straight. i believe that there are good candidate both in opposition and administration, i guess il have to choose those good and better person above the other. your right the future for our country depends on each one of us citizens, we are given the power to choose the best so lets make the most our of it. being one of the poor country in the whole world we should not let our country go into the deepest part. we are the only hope for our country to go up so lets love it and be proud of it. we have so much to offer if only all of us help each other and choose the better person to seat in the government.

judging from the lists of candidates in this coming election, I'd say opposition has a big advantage. Most of their candidates are quite visible to the media even before election campaigns started. And one more thing I observed, most of the candidates for the administration are person whom obviously the current administration can put a leash on, except for a few. I just wish joker arroyo would win.I'm only voting him in the admin side and i'm not also voting all of the opposition side maybe only a few that I think will do ok in the senate floor.

i'm pro opposition... i will never vote candidates from the administration team coz they will just help GMA to reign longer and impose more corruption in our country Philippines... hope they will not be elected....i don't have trust in them..

the problem with our candidates is that some of them don't even adhere to strict party-politics. 2-3 years ago you'd see the faces of these candidates belonging to the other camp. Oreta and Sotto in the admin ticket? years ago they're cursing GMA to hell... i can't vote straight this time. both sides have their own share of bad candidates NOT to vote for and as for me i'm endorsing these people.. Arroyo's good. even if his name is *Joker* (yeah, you heard me right Batman, you got the wrong guy this time). Chiz Escudero's not that bad at all. Zubiri's a good candidate to vote for. Pichay - well, i don't know if he's winnable, but i think he's OK.. I've yet to think about the others. Don't want to be too hasty and be the reason why the Philippines will be cursed for another three years.

good topic here moonlitpriest. anyway, even if most people here is obviously against the gloria as president, i will still want to air my views on the matter personally. first of all, i am not a gloria fan. but thing is, i find that she did lots of improvements. the economy is stabalizing which is a good sign for all of us. we say we don't feel the improvement. that's sad. we only feel bad about everything. how can we ever progress if we always love to finger point and blame and look always for stains? we always overlook the beautiful things happening around. i see that the media is stressing so much of the negativities and never on the positive things which are happening in our country. and so, since we all are into tv and news reports, we always believe what the media is showing. but how about the "good" news? where is it? is good news not news at all? i am just saying that the philippines is not just the corrupt country in the world. there are still loads of corrupt countries in the world... infact, all countries suffer from corruption. even the countries we look up to so much with pride and respect are suffering from underground corruption. jsut that their corrupt officials are so great in putting their corruptions into secrecy up to the point that it will never be revealed ever. i say, i already have my list on who to vote. and i respect everyone's opinion anyway. i go for the administration by the way... happy myLotting!

I will vote for the opposition - straight. GMA should not have the support from the Legislative Branch so that graft and corruption will be minimized. At least some people would be against her whims and caprices. She has set up her collaborators in the Executive Department including the Judiciary. There should be an efficient check and balance.

Im not a registered voter yet but in my opinion the opposition should be voted because the candidates their are more trustworthy..

I thought that being the 1ST was only in Asia. Heck. Earth?!. Are you sure about this?. Going back to your question, if i'm going to choose among the politicians, there'll be no vote straight for ADMINISTRATION nor OPPOSITION. Does not make sense at all.

I would vote for the opposition. The present administration has done so much damage to this country. many of our citizens are crying our for help yet the government's goal is centered upon all the graft, corruption and exploitaion that they can do. this is very relevant to the justice system that the Phils. has. Although there are a few candidates from the administration that I would like to vote for, like J. Arroyo and R. Recto.

I'd go for the Opposition, because they had less commercials than the Administration.I really doubt the Administration about helping the people with their financial problems coz with their numerous lousy commercial they'd just earn back the money they'd spent for it...by CORRUPTING...AGAIN!

from my opinion after the election of senators the country will be corrupt as long as the president is GMA well the corruption may be lessen...... this would be my list of senator to vote: ping lacson noynoy aquino alan cayetano chiz escudero loren legarda antonio trillanes manny villar kiko pangilinan honasan joker arroyo i only like to vote this 10 people guess i will add cesar and tito to complete the 12

I wouldn't vote straight for opposition or administration. There are only a few candidates who passed on my qualifications as deserving to be voted. They're all the same anyway no matter where they belong. Politicians are all the same. I just hope who ever will be on the 12 senatorial slots will do good and wouldn't be that corrupt especially if they can't help to steal.

As of now, I haven't really decided on who to vote for. I have started my list (haven't filled up the 12 senatorial slots yet) and I haven't listed anyone from Team Unity. I am just so frustrated about how things are under GMA's administration. Though, I am not sure that things will be better if I vote for the opposition. I just go by this -- "vote for the lesser evil".

go!

Its a very hard decision to make-on who will i vote for this coming election. Sometimes i feel that whoever i vote, they might not good enough to make our country prosperous. But from the beginning, when i undertsand what is politics, i have been an opposition of a bad and corrupted government. Until now, now especially that as you said we are now the no 1 corrupt country in asia, i would go for GO. Maybe they could help. I just hate Arroyo's driving skills on the government. It should be a warning to us that not all economist can upgrade our government. And it should be a lesson also not to vote those politicians who are like "yoyos" that they go form one party to another

I believe on Team Unity's platform, and thus I am voting for them come elections in May. I think voting opposition would just bring us back to where we are, rallies here and there, the streets a brimming with red-flag bearers. I dont like these red scenes one bit. I vote TEAM UNITY because I CARE for the future of the Philippines. I may not have a direct knowledge of them, but in my heart I know that I am voting right, and I am doing something for the Philippines in my own little way, believing that we have a future here in the Philippines.

im for the opposition..

First in my list is Pichay, he will be a good senator.
