| Call for Change By Capt. Nicanor Faeldon Magdalo. We believe that citizens have rights as well as responsibilities among the most basic of these rights are the right to the truth and the right to choose leaders. We must fight for these rights if we are to keep them. PILIPINO believes Arroyo will stay on unless we oust her through Civil Disobedience. It is time to reassert our rights. It is time to reclaim our pride and dignity as Filipinos. For more than two years, I have kept my silence, hoping I was wrong about the Arroyo government. Instead, the events have proven me right - she is corrupt and ruthless, and she will do anything to stay in power. I join the fight for a credible government, though I will not benefit from this. The government and the military have tried to break me and my group for more than two years, linking us to the opposition and accusing us of accepting money to oust Arroyo. Arroyo and her cohorts have tried to break everyone who disagrees with them, and I am sure they will continue to do everything they can to break me. This is early I swear: I will not accept any position in government, either in this one or the next. There is no reward for me in this fight except the knowledge that should I die, I die in peace, for I am fighting for our people and our country. ***** |
