When will the Poverty of Filipinos be Resolved???

PUBLIC

Good day to all my co-filipinos! Here in GenSan, in SOCCSARGEN, and the whole Region 12. All of Mindanao,including the Visayas and Luzon!

Have we reflected on the root cause why the Filipinos are poor despite the wealth of our nation? Do we believe that millions of Filipinos are victims of malnutrition and hunger?

Millions of Filipinos are called "Squatters" in their country??? Despite the wide lands we have, we are Squatters? We have almost nothing to eat, to drink despite we are surrounded by large seas, rivers where a lot of God's gifts for us are? All classes of fish, pearls, etc.are found?

Do we believe as what foreigners say? " Ah Filipinos are poor because are lazy? Who work in the farm so that we have of farm products to buy for all of us, the seas with their fishes, pearls and etc to get are done by Filipinos are not the farmers the so-called "backbones of the nation? Because they labor hard so that we can live as human being.

Despite so many things to eat, we still become nation of malnutrition and hunger? Does God have not enough supply for all of us? According to a Catholic Priest who has studied the economy of the world, Philippines included, there more than 9 billion peoples global-wide. But even if there would be 36 Billion peoples all over the world, still there will be more than enough there are to eat from farms, from the seas, rivers and from the sky.

Why do billions of people in the world suffer from malnutrition and hunger even there are only more than 9 billion now?

What might be the answer to the query? "Why do millions among the 100 million Filipino today and billions of peoples all over the world are hungry and poor"??? Because they are lazy? Or is there another reason, much deeper than this idea that because we are lazy? (By: Rose A. Barrera 30 years in Column writing and Co-Anchor of ABSDAMAHAN'SLIVE-STREAM NEWS TV TALK SHOW)
