SONA 2012

SONA 2012

It has been already a practice of our nation- Philippines to have a State of the Nation Address also known as SONA of our president in every year of his/her administration.   In here, he/she is going to report all his accomplishments and other projects he/she want to implement for the development of our country.

Last July 23, 2012 at the Malacańang Palace, our president Benigno Simeon “noynoy” Cujuanco Aquino III, delivered his second State f the Nation Address.  In his SONA, he discussed so many topics such as about the government, anti-poverty campaign, health programs, education and even infrastructure projects.  I was a little bit surprise to that statements of our dear president that he have already implemented many projects because as far as I know there is no program yet that is implemented that helped a lot of citizens in our country.  I can’t feel any projects, any programs and any change.  And I think that program our president is saying is that only a minor part of our society is being affected.  Those wealthy people that can afford those programs and most of the time only politicians are affected that’s why they are still in their positions and still using the money of poor people.  Another thing during his SONA is that, as expected there were so many politicians attended the said occasion in their glamorous and elegant gown and splendid gems that seems there is a pageant. 

Do they really need to dress like that?  Why not they are going to wear simple but formal one?  It’s just like SONA is a time for bragging of dresses and gowns.   Isn’t it that SONA is a time for our president to report all his accomplishments?  In these I am hoping that next SONA of our next presidents will be more successful one.
