Majority of the Filipino voters do not like corruption in government, but they are fond of selling their votes. Most of the Filipino citizens would like change for the better be effected in the Philippines, but they welcome violent steps toward change like executing the undesirable citizens of the country without trial. These happenings are clearly, plainly and simply types of ambivalence, because the populace in this regard is contradicting themselves.
How can one phase out corruption if he/she is the very first who sells his/her vote? Can you expect a politician who has bought votes and wins an election to be incorruptible? How can a politician get back the capital that he has invested in the elections if he/she won't adventure in corruption? In view of this, a corrupt free society would just be a dream if the people would continue their political ambivalence by always contradicting themselves, and that is selling their votes with the hope that the ones that would win the elections would not try to siphon the coffers of the government.
How can one dream of a new society? How can one realize a society of change, when she/he supports violence in effecting change? This fact is also an ambivalence on the part of the voters themselves since violence is a way of destroying a society and not a step towards effecting change.
If these trends that are being mentioned above continue to exist, what do you think? Will there be a better future for the Filipinos? Will there be a great leap for us Filipinos towards a better tomorrow when we ourselves are our own enemies towards a brighter future?
