Yesterday, I watched the State of the Nation Address of President Glorai Macapagal Arroyo. I was impressed at the bravery she showed in defending her measures to resolve the countrys' economic crisis. She faced opposition from her critics but she withstood.
Kudos Madam President!

I am not an avid follower of the President but I highly respect her decision making. And I am grateful that she continued to work for the Filipinos despite the odds.

Some people might not not understand might view but I am also amongst the masses who took setbacks that befell in our economy and is vulnerable of a possible worst scenario. But the laws and reforms done in her administration helped me cope with my difficulties.

I believe the President has done something to keep our dignity intact.

The manner that we express of freedom of speech is a manifestation that she is a composed and steady woman that cannot be intimated with pressure. An indication that we need a leader like her for the country to survive.
