		<description>hello s3lvo,

uv hit a lot of bulls eye with your post, i share the same sentiments, especially the part that OFW should become aware that such government and politics is possible. I really don&#039;t like it when i hear fellow Filipino&#039;s here say so many bad things about our country, we all know that already, but that doesn&#039;t mean that there&#039;s no more hope. It&#039;s the thinking that everything is lost that makes it so infuriating. 

As what you&#039;ve said, OFWs have a significant political force , enough to get the government&#039;s attention. 

And I still believe that one day it will be their turn to try their luck in the Philippines, that it will be our grass which is greener, and our economy will be at par with theirs. But it starts with that mustard seed of FAITH that it is possible. 

I am still a newbie OFW, but rest assured that I have with me that HOPE that things will be better. 

p,s: dnt worry bai&#039; s3lvo, il practice my right to vote here, kasi if  i wont use my right to vote, i lose my right to complain , hehehe :)

thanks for posting this.

&lt;strong&gt;sana dumami ang mga katulad mo didee... nasa ibayong dagat ka rin pala.*****&lt;/strong&gt;</description>

		<description>kulang nga yung exercise your right to vote.

syempre madami pa din kulang, pero yung kahilera nung ibang suggestion na simple, practical at doable -- dapat kasama yung overseas voting.

nung nagbabantay tayo ng canvassing sa picc, nakakalungkot kasi mababa ang turnout ng overseas voters.

&lt;strong&gt;*****marami pa actually ang possibleng gawin... dahil sa limitation sa space yan lang muna ang nilagay ko. alam kong there are parts of the world na mahihirapan ang maraming OFWs na magrehistro at bumoto dahil sa mga kahinaan ng batas mismo. pero kahit doon sa mga lugar na madaling bumoto mababa talaga ang turn-out. the potential for Filipinos abroad is there, the question is would they take on that challenge?*****&lt;/strong&gt;</description>
