         <description><![CDATA[<div><strong>After watching the video, I honestly felt anxious for the future of our country’s government. Most of the top four candidates for presidency are extremely popular – not for their excellent contributions to the Philippines or brilliant solutions to high priority issues, but rather for other aspects that are not exactly relevant in pushing for growth and sustainability of the country. There is a real worry if the citizens eligible for voting would choose fame as a more important deciding factor instead of actual potential and capability. With this, I pray that the Lord send His Spirit to bestow upon Filipinos the gifts of Wisdom and Counsel as they cast their votes during the elections in May. I also pray that whoever will be elected as government leaders would be able to provide for all Filipinos and may come up with concrete plans to improve our country and mitigate the top problems that have been affecting the people tremendously such as the pandemic, poverty, and unemployment.&nbsp;</strong></div><div><br><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>After watching this video, I’m worried for our country. Many of Manny Pacquiao’s followers are his fans from his old boxing career and not because of his ideas to improve the Philippines. Similar to Isko Moreno’s, most of his followers are his old fans back in the day when he was a “teen idol”. When voting for the country’s next president, everyone must be well educated especially the younger generations because this one choice can change our whole future. People shouldn’t be biased and vote for the candidate who is most liked/ famous, but of their plans to make our future better. Thus, I pray that God may guide us to pick the best candidate to led us. I also pray that He grant the person elected with wisdom to make up plans to solve our country’s health crisis and other important problems.&nbsp;</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>The video enlightens its viewers of the prevalent issues in the Philippine government&nbsp; such as political dynasties, corruption and more and how it affects the country. Aside from this, the viewers are reminded that one of these candidates is going to be the next leader of this country, and unfortunately, majority of them are known not for their acts of service. This leaves me praying that we would have educated voters who will choose a person who understands that they are a public servant, so their top priority is to address the social, political and economic issues that gravely affects the citizens and not gain benefits from being the president of the country and not being part of the issue. However, to have educated voters, education should be accessible to all, no matter what one’s social status is and who much money they have. With this, I pray that the root cause of making education a privilege, corruption, which leads to the rise of poverty rates would end. I pray that the leaders of this country would have the wisdom to find a way to stop these issues and possess selflessness and compassion for the people.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>After watching this video as a filipino youth, I  myself am worried for the future of our country. It truly is concerning knowing how many Filipinos in the country choose certain candidates as their actual leaders for the next six years solely on their popularity in the past years. It is without a doubt that people should be more  knowledgable about the candidates they are planning to vote for, as well as to be more mindful about certain issues that are still very much present in our society such as political dynasties, and corruption. Those who are eligible to vote really need to remember that who they are voting for are going to be the leader of our country for more than half a decade. Voters need to take the elections more seriously and vote for those who understand the situation our country is in. With this, I pray that God would gift Filipinos the wisdom to vote for the leader who can and will take our country to a brighter path. I would also like to ask that whoever is chosen to be the next president will be the one who will give voices to the people who need it the most and the one who will strive to make this country a better place for everyone.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>After I watched the video i realized how important it is to have voters education and be aware and educated on all the candidates. It is also important to be aware of all the political dynasties and take everything into consideration before carefully deciding who to vote for, for the good of one's country.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>After watching the video, I fret for our country's future. Since some of our winning candidates are known for other things than being known for their capability of being a leader for this country and for their creative thinking in resolving our country's problems. Unlike some candidates, like Manny Pacquiao, who was chosen by his followers because of his past profession, boxing. Another is Isko Moreno's where his followers chose him since he was a former "teen idol" and is very active in social media. After witnessing this some prayer intentions of mine is to have a great leader who has the values of a true leader and has critical thinking in making the right decisions for our country. I pray that Our Father will guide us in picking the best leader this country may have. Please guide our candidates in picking the right decisions and give them the understanding on how to govern this country.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>My thoughts after watching the video were of disappointment in the candidates and concern for the future of our country and its people. As said in the video, we are in dire need of a good leader to take us out of this pandemic. However some of the current  candidates do not seem capable of doing so, and yet they are popular and have a good amount of fans. Unfortunately their popularity comes not from their capability to lead well, but from their charm. With this, I can only hope and pray that the people may vote for the most decent candidate. I also hope that whoever may win will finally give the people what they actually need and focus on the root problems to slowly but steadily improve our country’s state. </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>After watching the video, I felt very anxious, afraid, and worried about the future of the country. Seeing that most of the candidates who are running for such an important role are people with huge followings because of their popularity instead of their competency and acts of service, voters need to educate themselves and properly assess who has the potential to help the country with its current problems. With such a big responsibility given to the voters, I pray that the Holy Spirit may bless them with the gift of Wisdom and Knowledge to help them make the proper decision on who to vote for. I also pray for the future leaders of the country, may they be able to come up with solutions and plans that would help the people and country to flourish.&nbsp;</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>After watching the video, my thoughts are that majority of the top candidates running for president of the Philippines will very much obviously not give us a promising future to look forward to. Many of these candidates only want this high position for power. They make empty promises stating to develop the country and they disregard the duty of responsibly leading its people to the right direction. My prayer intentions consist of God giving us, the citizens of the Philippines, his guidance and wisdom when choosing a leader who will be holding all our lives in their hands. We must not think so negatively and have hope for our country’s future.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>After watching the video, I feel worried and uncertain for our country's future. These candidates seem to be more popular for their accomplishments in their industry of choice (ex. Pacquiao with boxing) instead of assessing the candidates based on their actual leadership skills and the probability that their plans for us would realisitically help our country. Voters should thoroughly educate themselves on the real contributions that these candidates may actual give instead focusing on their popularity. Hopefully whoever the winning candidate may be, they will be able to successfully mitigate and solve the major problems in the Philippines, especially during this time of need where the current situation of the Filipino citizens has become dire.I pray that the voters make the right decision with the fruit of wisdom and understanding.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>After watching the video, I realized that most of the candidates who are running for president and vice president are not as qualified and as ready to lead our country. Running for president or vice president is such an important role for our society, it is essential for not only the country but also for the people in it. For the upcoming elections, I am worried that the Filipinos will not be as educated enough to vote for the most qualified candidate since we are in an "Education Crisis". Some Filipinos might vote for the most popular candidates like "Manny Pacquiao" or Isko Moreno while some Filipinos would vote for the most educated ones. So as the elections is nearing, I pray that the Filipinos will be able to vote wisely for the best candidate and hopefully the best candidate would win the 2022 elections.&nbsp;</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>After watching the video, I felt worried about the future of our country, the Philippines but at the same time disappointment for these candidates as you can see clearly some of them only run for popularity and power, not for the reason of service and to empower. Running for president would give one great authority and if this authority is given to someone who doesn’t know how to use it or will only abuse this power, the future of our country would not be something I would look forward to. From the video, I realized that it is really important to use your vote wisely especially now with the pandemic and the many problems it brought. With this, I pray to the Lord that he gift us the gift of wisdom and counsel so that voters may vote for the best leader for our country. I also pray that the Lord bestows his spirit upon the future government leaders, that he may guide them in leading our country and in solving the many problems our country is facing.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Watching this video made me apprehensive because it made me question how educated our country is in terms of voting and politics. It also made me aware of just how much trouble we could be in if the wrong person were elected. The video also made me realize that we lack candidates that truly desire to see our country change and progress; our elections almost come across as more of a contest based on how much these candidates can get on the voters' good side, for good or for worse. I pray that we as a whole can be more educated in terms of the decisions we make and how to discern which candidates to vote for to truly make progress and change for the betterment of all.<br><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>After watching the video, I realized that what will happen next to the Philippines depends on the voters. The majority of the candidates are not qualified and have their flaws. Especially since being a president is one of the hardest duties a person can have, this should not be given to just anyone. Without a good president, a country’s economy, healthcare system, and education could deteriorate, the whole country would not be able to function. With this, I pray that voters may be given the wisdom and guidance of God. Thus, I also pray that whoever will be elected as the president will be able to exercise good judgment and make the right decisions for the whole nation.</div><div><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Short Reflection&nbsp;</div><div><br></div><div>General Thoughts&nbsp;</div><div>Becoming the president of the Philippines is a huge responsibility to bear. Whoever sits in this position of authority can revolutionize the country for generations to come. For the past few decades, the country has been dominated by influential political dynasties which have gatekept politics from other more qualified communities. As a result, controversial issues such as media propaganda, historical revisionism, and the revival of Duterte’s EJK remain to be discussed within the elite. In a country filled with democratic principles, which highlights the importance of transparency, participation, and accountability, it’s integral for voters to be well-educated of their desired candidates.&nbsp;</div><div><br></div><div>==============================================================</div><div><br></div><div>Prayer Intentions&nbsp;</div><div>Enlighten our global leaders and government officials, especially those who have committed malicious crimes due to their selfish interests. Touch their hearts so they can listen to the voices of the vulnerable and embody the virtues of honesty, transparency, and accountability.&nbsp; Sanctify their character so their ideologies are personified through their day-to-day tasks.&nbsp;</div><div><br></div><div>With the arrival of the upcoming 2022 elections, may You grant all voters the knowledge to critically choose the best candidate to lead the nation. We also pray for politicians partaking in this event, that they may be fuelled with the motivation to address urgent issues in the Philippines.&nbsp;</div><div><br><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>All these candidates make so many promises such as ending corruption, fighting against drugs and solving our economical problems. However, once elected, will any of these candidates fulfill their promises especially given their tarnished backgrounds? One of our leading presidential candidates is a coward who can’t even show up to interviews or his trial because he can’t confront what he’s done or what he is still doing up until today, but instead makes the most atrocious excuses to get out of these difficult situations. Even our most promising candidate has a massive stain in her reputation, “formerly” being part of the liberal party, which for years has been using the Aquino name to manipulate and deceive their followers for political gain and corruption. Knowing that majority of the Philippine’s population belongs to the lower class and uneducated, these candidates will continue to take advantage of these people using bribes and empty promises, and since not many people are well educated, they will be easily manipulated. However, later on, they will suffer from the consequences of electing the wrong officials once again, being the most vulnerable class. The lower class isn’t the only contributor to this problem because the rich, although supposedly “well educated”, often make selfish choices when it comes to these issues, such as voting for a candidate because they will benefit off of their chosen candidate or even worse, not voting at all. I truly pray for the future of our country, especially for the futures of the vulnerable.</div>]]></description>

Some of them earn fans from past jobs like boxing and acting and some make empty promises. People shouldn’t vote for a certain candidate because of popularity but because they are capable of making our country move forward. It reminded me about how important voter’s knowledge is and how much we, as citizens, should be mindful about who we’re voting for.&nbsp;</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>After watching this video, I feel embarrassed as a Filipino citizen because other countries noticed the ridiculous things going on in the government. I already feel worried about out country because these politicians are treating this election like a game. I even see political parties using TV shows to attract voters. I pray that our fellow Filipinos will be responsible voters during this year's elections. </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>After watching the video, I realized that some of the candidates are being chosen because of their popularity and not their motives. Like Manny Pacquiao–as stated in the video, most of the ones which vote for him are his fans. The role of presidency is not a mere accessory that could be flaunted. It is a big role with a great responsibility. “With great power comes great responsibility.” The qualities of a good president for the country should not only be based on the knowledge or educational background but rather his or her attitude and desire to help his or her fellow countrymen. We must choose and vote wisely especially since the country is facing hard times.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>After watching the video, I felt concerned for the future of our country. Some of the candidates running for Presidential and Vice Presidential office are people who don't have the best family background or the best reputation to support their ability to run the country. I feel very worried as well that voters are not well educated and would not make the wisest decision on who to vote for. Our country is facing many challenges, especially amidst this pandemic. My prayer intentions are that voters would be more educated on the candidates and would evaluate which leader would be best for the job of helping develop a better economy and bring a better future for our country. </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>After watching the video, I started getting really curious on who will be elected as the president of our country, the Philippines. Bongbong Marcos, Isko Moreno, Manny Pacquiao and Leni Robredo are all really strong candidates. On social media, however, I saw that a lot of netizens really wanted Leni Robredo to be our president. So I thought about what would happen if Leni Robredo ended up not being the president. I would be really shocked. Although for me, no matter who the president is, I just really hope that they will improve our country in terms of economy, development, corruption, and others. I hope that our country will be a better country because of our newly elected officials. That is actually my prayer intention. My prayer intention is for the citizens who will vote to be wise enough to elect officials that will lead our country well. And for the newly elected officials to not disappoint us and actually improve some aspects of our country that need to be improved.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div><strong>These past few days, the interviews of the top presidential candidates have been trending on the news which have stirred up mixed responses from the netizens. As I read the comments under these presidential interviews, I noticed a lot lauded and commended the candidates for their goals and future projects. However, will these commitments actually be kept and be implemented- or are they all just outrageously false campaigns and empty promises made to sway the voters and to win the hearts of the people? Sad to say, the basis for choosing the best candidate nowadays is popularity instead of their competence, achievements, credibility, transparency, character, etc. With the lack of voter’s education, our country will continue to be ruled and dominated by corrupt dynasts, clowns, cowards and incompetents which will greatly hinder us from prospering and achieving the equality we have long dreamed of. Due to this, more Filipinos will fall into the trap of their candidate’s empty promises, and we will fail to eliminate the other factors such as vote-buying and vote intimidation. Suffice to say, the people’s decisions and votes will determine the future of our country and our people. With the right president and an effective government, we will be able to abolish the lingering social issues that have been driving our country into the ground for decades (unemployment, lack of social services, poverty, etc). With this being said, it is important to choose wisely and sensibly-  i am not specifically pertaining to who among the candidates you should vote for, but rather who in society are you reaching out to and will benefit from your vote. I pray that the potential leaders of our country serve with compassion and genuineness. I also pray for the electorates that may look past the candidates’ empty promises and vote based on their potential and true intentions.</strong></div><div><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Right after watching and analyzing what was going through in the video, I undeniably felt a source of uncertainty for the future condition and situation our country may possibly experience, seeing how most of the top-chosen presidential candidates for the upcoming elections do not truly possess genuine intentions that could be of greater good for the country. Some candidates may stand out among others for their best abilities and broad set of knowledge, however, they may not have a pure heart and soul to serve the nation’s people. Our leaders are more than just a mere representation of the people as a whole, but rather a competent individual who wholeheartedly attends to the needs of the citizens and is capable of bringing positive change that would contribute to the nation’s progression. Sad to say, the lack of voter’s education is visibly evident in modern-day society, witnessing how eligible voters would tend to selfishly choose a well-known or popular politician rather than someone of greater potentials and capabilities. Therefore, I pray for the future leaders of the country that they may possess true values and important aspects of a great leader such as passion, commitment, empathy, and integrity. On the other hand, I as well pray that God may grant the voters with the gift of wisdom to thoroughly select the most deserving and qualified candidates, for the future of their country is in their hands.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>After watching the video, I became very anxious and worried because people seem to be careless about our country's ensuing leaders. Most would just vote the person based on popularity. It creates a negative impact to people and the whole country since they do not care about their stands and acts that they will do when they become representatives of our country. The video has also made me aware of the happenings in society. It made me realize why we must vote wisely and carefully. I pray that our future representatives for the next years will be educated and consider the betterment of the community since our future is in their hands. I pray that they will resolve the issues in the country.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>After watching and reflecting on the video, I felt a wave of emotions run through me. Undeniably, I felt goosebumps just trying to envision what the future holds for this country. Do most of the highly rated candidates for the upcoming elections hold absolute truth to the words they speak or are they simply displaying a public face? I began to ponder more on how we are only able to see the surface level of their motives and personality. Despite controversies, they are able to sway the public eye with their charisma due to their social or political background. We cannot just immediately come to a conclusion that all Filipinos are uneducated and misguided because&nbsp; even the most privileged or the most powerful still choose to abide to incompetent candidate. It is a matter of&nbsp; relations, societal bias, exploitation and bribery that closes the lid. Unfortunately, in the modern-day society we exist in today, it is full of hypocrisy and doublespeak, especially in politics. While there are a lot of candidates with more potential than well-known politicians who are nefarious, the people tend to lean on the more influential side.&nbsp; A good president holds on to his word, can lead a country with genuineness behind his actions, has integrity, and has moral compas. Regardless of social status, his open-mindedness will encourage the free people to let their voices out as they create new constructive and holistic norms for the betterment of the country. I pray that God may bestow upon us a president who promotes free people and free voices for the advancement of the economy, more opportunities for the poor, a better public health insurance system and the responsibility of the people’s welfare instead of personal gain.&nbsp;</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>After watching the video, I felt worried and anxious about the future of our nation. I felt that majority of us, Filipinos, still lack proper voter’s education in evaluating and choosing the best candidate to lead the country. It is upsetting yet not surprising how familiarity, good looks, charisma, and popularity are often the standards of voting for people, rather than competency, integrity, sincerity, and acts of service. We need to remember that our future and the future of the nation lies in our hands and that the choices we make may reap unpleasant and pleasant outcomes. With this, I hope and pray for the betterment of our nation, especially with the upcoming National Elections.<br><br>————<br><br>Dear Heavenly Father, as the 2022 National Elections near, may you bestow upon the eligible voters the gifts of wisdom and counsel. May they make wise choices and vote the most deserving candidates. Please also guide our government leaders to always apply the values of integrity, service, compassion, and understanding in everything that they do. May their intentions and deeds remain pure and strengthened by Christ and not for their selfish desires. We also pray that you give them divine wisdom to lead this country out of the struggles brought by the pandemic. Amen. &nbsp;</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>After watching the video, I felt uncertain about what lies ahead for the Philippines. Many of our fellow countrymen have not gone through proper education- causing the majority of the Philippines’ population to be more gullible to lies. Leaders serve as a driving force to pave a hopeful path not only for the present generation but also for the future. If we select the wrong leader, more problems will be added to our overflowing bag of issues. In order for the Philippines to finally see a good future, Filipinos need to recognize the values that each candidate possesses. A good leader should not only have wit but also hold the values of truth, understanding, wisdom, selflessness, empathy, commitment, passion and integrity. He/she would put the welfare of his/her country before their own needs. As local and national elections are near, I pray that eligible voters choose the most qualified candidate wisely. I also pray for our awaited leaders that they may execute their jobs properly.&nbsp;</div><div><br><br></div>]]></description>
