Dr. Mahathir Mohhamad...on Democratic Policy On his one on one interview with Loren Legarda(A former senator and a Protesting Vice-Pres. candidate)on her show "Real Stories", Dr.Mahathir,humbly share his experiences on how he manage to put Malaysia as one of the booming country within the East Asian regions. At the middle part of the interview, former Prime Minister Mahathir Mohhamad,discussed his views on democratic policy ,principles and its implementation towards,constituent,supporters and non-supporters alike. His viewpoint regarding, street demonstrations, and its negative effect on economic prosper drew my attention most. A simple fact that this is our main concern now here in our country.Listening keenly on him and Comparing the maximum tolerance policy being put into practice here in the Philippines. Dr.Mahatir had mention that in Kuala Lampur ,Equality expressions like street protest can only be held once and for all for the reason that with continuous exercise ,the effect of the small hand rallying would paralyze day to day market and trade,and by suppressing it will allow more stability options for the majority. Here in our country,its the opposite,especially now that our President is being accused of electoral fraud and the opposition party is pushing on to have an Impeachment proceedings. This political turmoil had inflicted a big blow to the pursuance of unification ,and the concealed effort of some to grab the opportunity and hold power and be on executive office,disregarding the main concern that is, the people in poverty. Rallies and street protest,endless debates on Congress,Pending motions for E-VAT tax measures.Surely the Doctor had his observations and figuratively quoted that there are some countries that cant have his fill on his government,antagonizing and putting a contest on every governing body at seat. Dr.Mahathir,with his nationalistic character had a say on this when asked for a prescriptive point regarding the situations facing the Philippine government.He simply noted that He can't give a prescription for the issue,but share an encouraging point and emphasis on the plight of the people as the main concern. A call for Unity and more of national issues and not of political power struggle. In fact this was only my first time ,that I heard from him,I salute the former Prime Minister for what he had accomplished for his country and resting an envious feeling within me of how this leader benevolently understand his peers. Sad to say that its the same democratic practice over and over again in here, a perpetual procedure of discontentment,but hold on still, "I Love My Country for Its the Only One I've Got"....May God Bless Us All!

The Phillipines is in a sad state now, as I have heard from many here at AsiaFind and from Filipino friends I have outside of AFF. But then, every country does tend to have it's problems. We can only keep talking about the issues with as many people as we are able to, hope our words fall on ears of someone who is not deaf, and then wait. Many Blessings. Bear.
