LENI IS MY PRESIDENT
A politically-invested person? Me? Yes, 6 years ago. If you want proof, read my pre-election blog about my presidential bet in 2016. After President Duterte got elected in 2016, I refused to engage in political discourses. I got disheartened and I detached myself from any discussion about national issues (except during major crises where I could offer help). I only made sure I know the latest through local and international news accounts on Twitter. As a Christian who is called to submit to authority, I chose to stay off the grid because I know none of my words would matter after the president I didn't vote for won. The voice of a regular Filipino citizen has become nothing but a distant whisper. I kept silent despite the questionable actions and inactions of the present administration. After 6 years, his #1 promise to the Filipino masses is still a promise (to end illegal drugs). To be fair, some election promises were delivered and there were accomplishments that deserve applause
