The Leaders and The Government

Posted by oniger on 26 Feb 2008 | Tagged as: Personalities

When are still young and don’t know yet the circumstances of what is happening around us, we come to answer such inquiries with correct innocent answers, based of course on what was learned from school and influenced of the people around who had been with us through out our learning period.

We know also that a “good leader is also a good follower.” As we grow old, and begin to understand things, we still tend be confused because of the insufficient knowledge who had been injected to us by the environment and the people around us. We know less about a thing especially when it talks about legal matters and laws of technicality around a certain point of argument.

Our Leader in the government knew a lot of thing including these technical terms in which it is the basis of their action. These leaders who are suppose to help us and will mold the community into a peaceful place have been misled by some personal interests. But there are points in time that our leaders seem to overlook such things that suppose to be for the benefit of their constituents and of the whole people.

Within their term of services, there are points that some of these technical law terms are being violated as being pointed out by the opposition line and to be defended as well by the incumbent parties. Which is which then, as an ordinary people, we tend to be confused of these things, unless of course if you have personal knowledge on the event which an argument was started.

They are just people intended to commit mistakes after all - a very good excuse to the human race.  Base on what these leaders are talking were for the benefits of the country. Yes it is actually, it will be for the people. This point of view is correct, unless the motive is truncated with some personal or political interest.  This will be then the time for them to overlook the duties to be performed - the wellness of the people.

So, what now……. Who will be the next leaders to ease if not stop this perennial dispute about equality?

The World and the People within

Base on the social structure point view (the triangular form), there are only few who are in the elite level. The same view when it come to statuses of countries. There only few countries who really are in the elite level.

Obviously, the middle class including the lower class, the masses as everybody called it are people who are patronizing products produced by these business oriented capitalist countries elite countries, same with individual too. People or countries in the middle class don’t have any choice, do they?

Everyone is lucky enough, I think. Because we still have the chance to grab these luxuries of life even if life is so hard. Well, I would like to reiterate that this perspective differ with yours because of the varying cultures and up bringing we are into.

The hunger problem that is being experienced in Heiti would be a better view for us to come up with the same perspective, I think. This country has been in this status even before. Though there are worldwide organizations extending help for this country, it seems that the hunger problem did not even ease a bit. The fact the people here are already eating mud cake is an obvious example that the change did not progress at all. Instead, it changes to a more severe problem.

Have you read or heard this maxim: “Everybody is expecting that Somebody will do it, but Nobody did it.” Now, who’s to blame? “Nobody,” who else do you think?

This maxim had been the result of what is happening in Heiti right now. Based on the current situation, logically, though there are assistance extended before, nobody has really give something that these people will have the chance to live life to the fullest.

Individual differences you may say, when will this end? These differences are making people go into something unfavorable for us, but favorable for them. While everybody is thinking of harmonious relationships, nobody really is working for it.

This excerpt my enlighten us somehow:

“If you prick us, do we not bleed? If you tickle us, do we not laugh?
If you poison us, do we not die?” an excerpt from the Merchant of Venice, Scene 1.
