HOW TO CHOOSE WISELY IN THE ELECTIONS!

Since advertisements of candidates, particularly senatorial and congressional bets, are steadily increasing, here are some reminders on how to choose WISELY in next year’s elections:

Hanapan ninyo ng TRABAHO o NAGAWA,, KAKAYAHAN o QUALIFICATION, ang LAHAT ng kandidato.

If the candidate is running for re-election, start searching and researching for his or her accomplishments in the Senate or the targeted post. A senator’s PRIMARY JOB is to write proposed laws which can respond to the people’s concerns and to improve the quality of life we have.

Simulan na ninyong magtanong sa mga kakilala o kaibigan, o kaya ay magbasa ng dyaryo o makinig ng balita sa TV at radio, kung kung ano ang ginawa ng kandidato sa nakalipias na tatlo o anim na taon.

Sa mga may sariling computer sa bahay, simulan na nating mag-research sa mga website ng Senado at House of Representatives kung NAGTRABAHO BA O HINDI ang mga kandidatong kinokonsidera natin.

HINDI PORKE MAGANDA o GUWAPO, lalo pa kung nakangiti, ay magaling na.

HINDI RIN PORKE MADALDAL sa harap ng media o walang tigil sa kakabatikos ng kahit na sino, kahit na WALANG EBIDENSIYA, ay karapat-dapat nang iboto.

HINDI MALULUTAS ng kaguwapuhan o kagandahan ng mukha at ngiti, o ng KADALDALALAN lamang, ang mga suliranin ng ating bansa. HINDI MAKAKALIKHA o makapagbibigay ang mga ito ng mga trabaho, makapagpapababa ng presyo ng mga biihin  o tuition sa iskwela o makakahango sa kahirapan ang mga ito.

We are NOT PAYING senators and congressmen WITH OUT TAXES just to stay handsome or pretty, or flash killer smiles at every opportunity. Keep that in mind, people, PLEASE!

Instead of just looking for the prettiest or the most handsome, or the most talkative, choose a candidate with BRAINS and appropriate QUALIFICATIONS.

DON’T VOTE for a candidate for senator or congressman who has VERY, VERY LITTLE or NO BACKGROUND at all on law and governance.

It will be FOOLISH for anyone to expect a candidate who has not even been a barangay councilman to be a good senator or congressman, or even a local government official.

Anyone who thinks that a candidate who does not even know that hearsay (tsismis) has NO EVIDENTIARY VALUE in court can be a good lawmaker is HALLUCINATING, if not having the NIGHTMARE of his or her life.,

If the candidate has never been a politician, check out his leadership and academic credentials.

See for yourself if the candidate has a good leadership or human resources management track record. Find out his educational background to determine if he or she is smart enough to correctly understand a problem and think of solutions to it.

Dahil PINAKA-MALAKING PAGKAKAMALI nating magagawa ang umasa na magiging magaling na senador, congressman o lokal na opislya;l ang isang kandidatong WALANG LAMAN ANG UTAK.

At higit sa lahat, tulad ng maraming beses ko nang sinabi, HUWAG KAYONG PALOLOKO. Sa mga survey kuno kung sino ang sikat o magaling. HINDI porke sinabi ng SWS o Pulse Asia ay yun na ang dapat piliin.

HUWAG NINYONG KALIMUTAN, BUHAY AT KINABUKASAN natin ang MAPEPERHWISYO kung hindi tayo pipili ng TAMANG KANDIDATO. 30
