2011: another year to be better

the new year started with good signs for the economy but still crimes are rising, esp the carnapping incidents, and other drug related crimes in our midst.

every pinoy should be alert nowadays, talk to your neighbors for a better understanding of what the other is doing, that's not being nosey, its trying to see
if the other house is not filled with shabu or drug related contents, or if its a carnapping ring or syndicate. there was even news about a neighborhood that has this drug laboratory inside and they were living there for four years! nobody was even noticing the people who come and go in that house? whoa wait a minute, kapeng mainit!!! maybe it's about time that we ourselves, should "police" ourselves? learn of your neighbors' work, job, what they do for a living, who comes in and out of their house , and so many little things that may quirk or spark something suspicious. There are many "tell tale" signs ...sometimes it's good to be a Sherlock Holmes too.

Chinese New Year, the year of the Metal Rabbit...last Feb 3, 2011, the whole world was focusing on the celebration of the next Chinese animal character in the Zodiac. Our Chinese brothers celebrate New Year with pomp and revelry.
Its very refreshing to see that the Chinese and the Pinoys go together in celebrating this New Year TOGETHER. it was the first time that it was done in the Quirino grandstand (PHILIPPINES), where some months before , there was the bus tragedy of the HK tourists, victims of a police officer gone berserk.
It is also good to learn that mainland China, thru their representative, had the Chinese TV group (CCTV) to have the celebration aired in HK and mainland China thru Channel 23, ANC (ABS CBN) live!!! This is what I call UNITED STAND.
I suggest we do this every Chinese NEW YEAR.

We wish everyone a good 2011 and hoping that every Pinoy or Chinoy in the country will try to be better persons, better children, better parents, better students, better teachers, to build a better if not the best country composed of good people.

We salute those Pinoys and Chinoys who are looking for better opportunities not using power, money, and position to get there. IMAGINATION, CREATIVITY , AND BRAWN .....AND BRAIN....that's the answer. If we can't pick our brains, let's use our muscles.

LET'S ALL WORK TOGETHER FOR A BETTER FUTURE FOR EVERYONE.
HAPPY NEW YEAR AND KUNG HEI FAT CHOI....
