I hope to see more of this projects by the government. Programs that really directly touch the lives of our countrymen. I still believe in this government. I really hope they can increase the coverage and the amount in the near future. I hope to seem more subsidy programs of the government. Subsidy on electricity, fuel and other basic commodities to make the lives of our countrymen better.

It's good that the government is implementing these types of projects. Like you Neriz69, I still believe that there's still hope for the Philippines. However, I happened to watch one interview conducted by Mareng Winnie Monsod. She pointed out that although the reason behind implementing these projects were noble, there is simply no way that our government can continually give subsidies to our countrymen. It's monetarily impossible. Therefore, the Tawid Pasada and Pantawid Kapamilya programs are just TEMPORARY solutions to a ginormous problem. I couldn't help but agree with her when I heard the numbers (taken from actual data submitted by the government). The billions of pesos allocated on the Tawid Pasada project could have been allocated on a more well thought of plan that will produce long term results. She explains it better than I do. *LOL*
Oh well. At least the government is taking baby steps towards improving the state of the nation. I still give PNoy a thumbs up.
