NAGA CITY, July 26 (PIA) -- More Camarinenses are now confidently looking forward to a better Philippines after hearing President Benigno S. Aquino III's delivered his 4th State of the Nation Address (SONA).
Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) Camarines Sur provincial director Edna Tejada specifically shared her thoughts on the consistency of the government's objective of incorporating inclusive growth in all its endeavors.
"President Aquino's statement was centered on the government's programs on ensuring that basic services are delivered. I also like it when the President commended specific agencies and personnel for good accomplishments like the lady police officer Arbo who hails from Bicol and I like him more when he made a no nonsense mention of agencies which are not contributing well to his administration and that they will be made answerable," Tejada said in an interview.
Juan Carlos Madrid, a Grade V student of Naga Parochial School agreed on almost everything that the President said, who said that he was with her mother while listening to the SONA.
“It is just right that he mentioned Jesse Robredo as a good servant to the government. It is also right that he mentioned the failures of some government agencies for it to be corrected, and it is right that he also praise those officials serving well, like Sec. Albert del Rosario of DFA and the three (3) policemen.”
“We have started a very good fight against corruption. We are now looking at the fruits of our labor, we are continuing planting the good seeds and we are looking forward to fulfilling more of these aspirations,” Ellen Borja , a plain housewife also related.
Jane Marie Tria Santellices, a government employee also remarked, “As long as we Filipinos have a skewed sense of patriotism - love of personal interests above love of country - then it would be hard for PNoy and even succeeding presidents to uplift our nation to where it should be. Corruption is a perfect example of this.”
GNN TV 48 station manager and CEO Fred Perdon also lauded the President's accomplishments for the past three (3) years.
"President Benigno Aquino has specifically cited the weaknesses and corruption of the government agencies to the extent of naming names and that should send signal to all government employees to do their job well and adopt transparency in all its transactions, Perdon stated.
Naga City Mayor John Bongat specifically cited President Aquino's program to alleviate poverty in the country, particularly pursuing it in the provincial outskirts.
"One of the most notable achievements that the Aquino administration have done is the successful implementation of the 4Ps or the Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program for it really helps the poor families especially the children ages from 0 to 14 years old."
Naga City City Councilor Gabriel Bordado also posted on his facebook account his appreciation of the Presidents SONA.
"After all is said and done, everything boils down to two words --- inclusive growth. Here in Naga, we have a rough (but rather familiar translation): Ubos kung Ubos, Gabos kung Gabos , in other words, nobody should ever be left out in the process of economic growth and development. Let's go for it! And finally, President Aquino praised Sec Jesse in a SONA. Mabalos po."
Generally, even the ordinary folks will have something to look forward to in the next three (3) years of President Aquino's presidency. (MAL/LSM-PIA5/Camarines Sur)
