Thoughts to guide us by

The Philippine Star

Allegations of massive corruption cast a dark impact on us. Grand-scale corruption breeds widespread massive poverty to our Kababayans... worst than the natural calamities that destroyed certain parts of our country.

As corruption greatly lessens aid for our youth, our FUTURE and TOMORROW of their bright future... so is our country’s future, tomorrow!  Corruption also demoralizes law-abiding, honest tax-paying citizenry when they see billions wantonly, surreptitiously disappear from government coffers!

How many million mouths have nothing to eat, millions remain homeless, children unable to go to schools? Corruption is CRUELTY OF  THE HIGHEST DEGREE ... of man against man!

Eliminate corruption and the number of suffering OFWs abroad will dwindle. Our society pays a heavy price for OFWs’ dislocation from their families as it results to many broken homes, drug dependency, moral degeneration, etc.  

Eliminate corruption and our infrastructure facilities, schools, hospitals, housing projects, airports, roads would be world-class we can be proud of.  Life for society’s bottom rungs will be easier... redounding to better peace and order situation.

Wealth illegally acquired gives only fleeting, shallow happiness!  Only genuine services to fellow life pilgrims DO! Let’s be brightly lighted candles to illumine our world!

Peace, abundance to us all! - Elvie Punzalan-Estavillo [email protected].
