is[/B]government is right for our country??? then what can you say??? if we change our form of government to federal??? can you give the advantages and disadvantages of federal form of govenrment???

Sa palagay ko mas pabor sa atin ang Federal Government lalo na sa mga kapatid nating Pilipino sa Mindanao sapagkat mabibigyan sila ng karapatang pamahalaan at pairalin ang batas at uri ng pamamahala na gusto nila. Pwedeng gamitin nila ang Muslim law doon kung nanaisin nila. Ito rin ang maaarin magtuldok sa daan taon ng gyera ng mga Muslim at Kristiyano dito sa atin.

i think changing the form of government wont change anything thing only the procedures in the government, position of our public officials. a good effect i dont think so... our system of government is the not the problem but the people who are in the government and the public as well. its like a way of running away from the problem if we change to federal its like patronizing US. what we should change is the attitude of every individuals all of us let us not look into the weakness of someone but let us help each other not to criticise and other and past allegation to one another... let us think of what can we do for the government because the government cannot do anything for us... CHANGING to federal form might cause confusion, mis interpretation, and abuse of our public officials for many of them are not that bright to understand it.... walang pikunan but that is what is true

And how will we do that? Changing people's attitude may take forever...

Let us acknowledge the fact that our democracy is still a young one that is still undergoing development (just around a half century old). As we all know, growth is often, if not, always, accompanied by a series of failures. America experienced lots of civil wars before they achieved the perfect recipe of democracy that they are enjoying right now. The same thing goes with France. Perfect, or rather near perfect, form of democracy is not achieved overnight. Philippine democracy needs time to mature. Sooner or later, we'll see the people get tired of the 'sick government' that were having right now. Sooner or later also, they'll become mature voters (who wont elect someone on the basis of popularity but rather capacity to lead this nation).

Bottom point? I think that its not a matter of changing the form of government or the people whom it supervise. I agree with shen, you cant expect 85 million people to change but I also agree with davidyule, that 85 million people need to change. So what shall we do then?

Nothing. All we could do is wait until all those politicians run out of voice and strength grandstanding. All we could do is wait until the stupidity of the 85 million people on choosing the wrong leaders backtrack on them causing them to realize that they're shooting themselves on their feet.

Sounds too idealistic isn't it? I believe pain is the greatest teacher that would move people towards change. Failure precedes development. Development requires time. I'll just pray that were not yet dead before democratic maturity reach our shores.
