Today marks a momentous event for all Filipinos all over the world. It is the inauguration of the 15th president of our country. The oath taking took place at Quirino Grandstand at exactly 12:00 pm. I watched the whole event at the comfort of our home but still I had goose bumps when the ceremony is finally over. I admit I didn’t vote for Noynoy Aquino but majority of the Filipinos has decided and it is time to finally move on and unite for the recovery of our nation. President Noynoy speech focus mostly on fighting corruption and the reformation of government as the one who will give comfort to the Filipinos and not the other way around. I like the part where he says “Kayo ang boss ko. Kaya’t hindi maaring hindi ako makinig sa mga utos ninyo.” What he emphasize is quite true because oftentimes MOST government officials were being abusive of their power. It is humbling to hear that Pres. Aquino calls the Filipinos ”boss.” His speech is inspiring and it lasted for more or less 20 minutes. I pray his vision for our country would be a reality. But of course we have to do our part too! Sama sama, tulong tulong sa pagbabago. Mahirap, mayaman, let us all do our part for our beloved Philippines!
