Most of the too hate to go back to Philippines. Why do we call them Heroes???

There are a lot of job opportunities in our country, not to mention the booming industry of BPO which until now requires more employees.The problem? the Filipino people who just wanted to get things on the easiest way as possible and some more we still use "isip-talangka". Do not blame everything to the government. Ask our selves? Am I doing something to resolve my problem?, Laziness will kill you...slowly... It is just like a jeep,The way towards the nations development doesn't rely on the driver alone, remember, we as passenger give the direction. As a Filipino, it is our duty to safeguard the interest of our country and protect our constitution at all times no matter what it cause.

Persist and Fortify my dear Philippines.
