10 Key Highlights From The 2007 SONA

As an overall sense and feel for the 2007 State of the Nation Address (SONA) by President Gloria Arroyo, I can say, without any doubt, this was one of the least remarkable, and at times even boring State of the Nation addresses that Gloria has had. If not for the hundreds of pauses for the clap happy crowd, then I would probably have fallen asleep within minutes.

But, despite this, I thought I’d list some key points that I thought had my attention and which I think were important.

1. At the beginning of her speech she states that she hopes to have The Philippines included as one of the richest nation within 20 years, but nearing the end she states, “All that will remain for my successor is to gather the harvest. He or she will have an easier time of it than I did.”

Is she telling us that with the 20 year goal of progressing our nation towards being one the richest nations, the last 17 years of this goal will be much easier? Within three years, the hardest part of this process will have already been completed?

2. She mentioned Mindanao, “investments in bringing peace to Mindanao; in crushing terrorism wherever it threatens regardless of ideology; and in putting a stop to human rights abuses whatever the excuse.”

I hope she is also talking about the excuses that are being made from her own camp including her top military officials. Because if this focus on excuses is a one way street, then sorry, I’m not buying it.

3. She mentions the Fearless Fourteen, yet, I had wished she would have mentioned them by name.

I vaguely remember Gloria making such a grandeous announcement of Manny Pacquiao before, could she not have done the same for the fourteen brave men who died because of the inadequate military top brass and equipment, as well as the barbarism of the MILF.. In this same SONA, she does, however, mention the six Filipinos who “bagged the awards at the Intel Young Scientists Competition”. Thank you Mrs. President, but I think our gratitude to the fallen goes first, just because it puts your SONA in a bad light with the inadequate command of your military being focused on, I would have liked a little bit more oomph and emphasis put on them. Awards are good, but life is sacred.

4. She stated the following as well, “Last year I unveiled the Super Regions – Mindanao, Central Philippines, North Luzon Agribusiness Quadrangle, Luzon Urban Beltway and the Cyber Corridor – to spread development away from an inequitable concentration in Metro Manila. Hindi lamang Maynila ang Pilipinas.”

For a moment, the gallery was a bit slow to clap at the end of this one. After all, many Congressmen call Manila their home, and only come back to their respective regions when elections take place.

5. She also says, “I am happy to see that the latest survey in June shows the hunger rate has sharply gone down nationwide.”

But what she fails to mention is that the previous hunger rate was 19%, which was at the all time high, and which certainly had nowhere else to go but down. And is currently at 14.7%. If it had gone up, then I would have called for her resignation right there and then. To further her cherry picking of survey facts, the following was also omitted:

14.7% is a substantial improvement, but is still three points above the 11.6% average percentage of hunger in 37 quarterly SWS surveys from mid-1998 to the present.

Hunger reached a new record-high of 22.0% in Metro Manila in particular

So, if hunger statistics were to really have dramatically improved, it would be under 10%. 14.7% is too much! It shows, that even though her touting of her macroenomic factors may be mildly justified, it is the microenomic factors that will have the impact that individual Filipinos will feel. 14.7% is not an improvement, it’s only an improvement from an even more shocking number of 19% who experience involuntary hunger.

6. She also mentions the “Cheaper Medicines Bill that was almost enacted in June. Almost is not good enough.”

But what she doesn’t say is that many other bills were shoved down our throat in place of more worthy bills such as the Cheaper Medicines Bill. The vague Anti-terror law was steamrolled through, but medicine for the poor was not. In the end, as is the case in The U.S.A, health care or lack of it will have killed millions more lives than any terrorist attacks could ever have done. It’s not that we want to take terrorism lightly, but couldn’t the 13th Congress have done both and still have passed a better Anti-terror law as well as passing the Cheaper Medicines Bill??

7. Of all the statements in her SONA, I liked the following the best, “I ask Congress…I urge you to enact laws to transform state response to political violence: First, laws to protect witnesses from lawbreakers and law enforcers. Second, laws to guarantee swift justice from more empowered special courts. Third, laws to impose harsher penalties for political killings. Fourth, laws reserving the harshest penalties for the rogue elements in the uniformed services who betray public trust and bring shame to the greater number of their colleagues who are patriotic.”

But do we believe mere words, when the actions are so different? As I have said, and I will say here once again, we cannot judge these politicians on what they say, for too often they have lied in front of our face. We must, and should, judge them on their actions. Talk is good with regards to fighting terrorism, but it is the actions that will have me believing. Until actual prosecutions of cases takes place, and these rogue elements, and even high ranking officials jailed, I cannot and will not believe such words that come out of this President’s mouth.

8. She said the following as well, “We can disagree on political goals but never on the conduct of democratic elections. I ask Congress to fund poll watchdogs. And to enact a stronger law against election-related violence.”

Ah, a mere 31 words and 1 paragraph with regards to poll cheating and violence. Nothing, and I was waiting for this, about the Martyrs of Taysan, and the death of our hero Musa Dimasidsing. We already have laws against election related violence, but what about something pointing to a revamp and overhaul of COMELEC? What good are the laws when the institution that implements them are the ones to oversee such election anomalies?

Maybe we should enact “The Obvious Cheating Law”, such as when election operators, officers, and even documents become missing , we should hold these officers responsible and not steamroll ahead with proclamations (ahem Bedol, ahem Zubiri, ahem Abalos). What good is having more funds for watchdogs when they aren’t even allowed to observe the canvassing (Lintang Bedol denied watchdogs the right to observe the Provincial Canvass in Maguindanao)

9. The last part of her speech was full of hidden clues, agendas, and wink wink type of sentences. She said, “They say the campaign for the next election started on May 15, the day after the last. Fine. I stand in the way of no one’s ambition. I only ask that no one stand in the way of the people’s well being and the nation’s progress. The time for facing off is over. The time is here for facing forward to a better future our people so desperately want and richly deserve. Uulitin ko: Hindi ako sagabal sa ambisyon ninuman. But make no mistake. I will not stand idly when anyone gets in the way of the national interest and tries to block the national vision. From where I sit, I can tell you, a President is always as strong as she wants to be.”

Clearly she acknowledges the many ambitious Senators that are already jockeying for position with their eye on the 2010 Presidential Elections. That last sentence is ominous however. As you will remember she said in her SONA back then that she would not run for President, but backtracked and made the decision that the country was clamoring and needed her to pursue further with her agenda for the nation’s sake.

And Clearly Charter Change, and even her run for Prime Minister is in the works (for the sake of the nation’s progress of course)

10. And of course, I couldn’t resist thinking about her closing remarks, “The state of the nation is strong.”

I wonder what kind of strength this is? Is her nation strong on human rights violations? Strong on election fraud, cheating, and other irregularities? Is her nation strong on providing health care? I’m sure she meant the nation is strong collectively, but let’s be serious here, is it strong because of her? Or is it strong because of those who fight for human rights, who were vigilant in the past election, and is it strong because of the strength of our OFWs?

I know our nation is strong, that goes almost without saying. But the state of our human rights, health care, and even education, may just be deteriorating. SONA’s are supposed to be upbeat, but in these times, maybe she should be more upfront.

(Update: someone emailed me with regards to not having mentioned her almost never ending “Super Regions”. Although I applaud her in her efforts to have come up with such a grand and well thought out scheme as to where and what our focus should be within these regions, I have to mention that she only gave a passing statement about graft and corruption. That to me is indicative of one of the major problems with providing P1.7 Trillion for these projects, because although P1.7 will be alloted for these projects, how much will really go to these projects? And how much are attributed to kickbacks, overpricing, and plain stealing? As Manuel mentions, it does sound to me like more pork and a way to keep her constituent happy and overflowing with money)

    she’s one of the best presidents the Philippines has ever had.
    check your facts, people. check your history… before saying shit against the administration.

    i mean, all people have flaws. politicians have their own stories to tell. it wont come as a surprise if they try to bring each other down as well. these so-called pillars of society who promised to rebuild this nation are themselves conspiring to bring about the nation’s destruction. see, we cant always count on them… so it’s up to every individual to choose to be optimistic or to go against everything that the government does.

    from where i sit, she’s one of the most efficient and one of the strongest presidents this country had.

  10. -im only 17 yrs old but i just want to know of our president this problem in our country.
    -Gloria is very kind she knOws that the philippines is dont have a money to make that project, of what she said.
    -And i think she is borrow money to the U.S. president.

    Although name calling is tolerated, (it’s a free country after all), within this post, I think our readers would be much more happy as to what your thoughts are with regards to the SONA.

SONA xa.. it’s a report on what was done, what’s ongoing, and what has to be done.. and i say, kung sa SONA pa lang e binabara na natin (face it, salita pa lang yan, pangako pa lang yan, wala na tayong suporta),no matter how unrealistic the promises or how much lack of action is present, then i cud say that our lack of support is partly responsible for the dragging down of our country.. biro mo, ung mga nagsasabing walang mangyayari, aba, i salute your confidence in your ability to predict na wlang magagawa si GMA in the next years.. lets just support the administration!!!

    hmm,, sa mga tao jan, paramdam naman.. miss na kita =’(

    WHATEVER DUDES.
    Dami nating SAY, daming alam oh. Eh, tayo rin naman ang naglagay sakanya dyan,d iba? Let`s just have it this way … nasa huli lagi ang pagsisisi. Mga uto-uto kasi. Anyway, kelan ba nakuntento ang tao? Iboboto tapos pag di nakuha ang gusto, pababagsakin. PSSHH! Well, in MY OPINION. The best president would still be Marcos. Napitino niya yung bansa eh, kahit na sabihin mo pang sa mali or mali lang siguro sa paningin natin, kahit na sapilitan. Yun kasi ang kailangan. Matigas masyado ulo ng mga pilipino. Sinabi nang, No Left Turn, sige parin tas pag nabangga isisi sa iba. See? Back to what I was saying, madami lang naman ang namatay nun kasi, matigas nga ang ulo. Kumakalaban pa. Tsaka yung mga militar, umaabuso hindi naman talaga si Marcos yun. Yun nga lang, since under niya ang militar, siya nasisisi. Alam mo yun? Lagi tayong naghahanap ng sisisihin kahit kasalanan natin. Haaayyyy. Siguro, kapalaran na ng bansa natin to. Ang magsisi nalang lagi sa huli. Sabagay, kahit naman palitan natin yang si GMA, may mangyayari ba? Kung tamad din naman tayong lahat? Tsaka LAHAT naman talaga ng politiko, corrupt. Pera na eh, bat pa nila pakakawalan, diba? Reality check, wala nang hindi magpapadala sa pera ngayon. Sus. Pagtiisan nalang natin. Even Obama, I never really liked him even from the start. Ano na bang nagagawa niya? Patuloy parin ang pagtaas ng oil, right? GAAAAAH. Ang bitter ko eh, no. =)))) Wala lang. Mula nung umupo siya, maraming bansa ang mas nag-gyera, nagka-swine flu. Malas. I`m not racist. I`m just saying na, he is like using the racist thingy para pagkatiwalaan siya. Because he knows that marami talagang kakampi sakanya since he`s black na ang image is super inaapi. Which is not really naman.

    Whatevs, this is tooooo long na. Btw, ang cheap ha. Mag-away daw ba dito dahil LANG sa grammar ng iba. Funny :-j Ahahahaha!
