Philippine Presidential election will not be until May 2010 but nowadays we are bombarded of countless infomercials of those aspiring to be president by 2010.
Heading the list is Manuel Villar. A senator of the republic who was accused of double insertions on the construction of C5 extension road in Paranaque-Las Pinas area. With the infomercials starting from showing the roots of Manuel Villar as a used to be vendor whose family sayed in a rented starting to break down house that sips in rain on rainy days. A popular personality, Boy Abunda was also in this infomercial.
Jejomar Binay, mayor of Makati city started his infomercials with those showing how makati is doing today under his leadership and that he hopes that it would be copied to the entire nation under his leadership.
Then there is Mar Roxas, also a senator of the Republic. As if his coming wedding with another popular TV personality Korina Sanchez is not enough to create a buzz has his own "Padyak" infomercials.
Lets also not forget those cabinet secretaries and or members having their own infomercials about their respective agencies doing this and that. It would be stupid not to think that they have done this to let the people know that they have their service to the public and may server even more when elected in office. As if.
I am a taxpayer and like every taxpayers I know have these questions for them:
1. Where are they getting the money to pay for their infomercials?
2. Why boast of what you have done (if its really true) when it is your job, and we are all paying your salaries to do those things?
Are Filipino voters still that dumb to go for this trickery?
I sure hope not.
