Why I Am Voting For Manny Villar

"The next president will inherit a country that is facing a staggering amount of problems. Upon inauguration, he will have to hit the ground running and won’t have time to “learn the ropes.”

Noynoy is leading in the surveys, due to sympathy for his late mother, President Cory Aquino, and his supporters’ belief that he is the Philippines’ salvation. However, it is difficult to see how Noynoy can solve the country’s problems when he hasn’t accomplished anything. In his 12 years as a legislator, he has not passed a single law nor has he contributed to development in his congressional district. Furthermore, Aquino has never managed any company or enterprise—not even a family, the most basic social unit.

Villar, in contrast, has lived a life defined by challenges, overcoming and breaking through invisible barriers and ceilings, and accomplishment. Through hard work, he rose from humble beginnings in impoverished Tondo to become the biggest low-cost property developer in Southeast Asia. He parlayed his achievements in business to a successful political career as a legislator from Las Piñas, and later Speaker of the House and Senate President.

Why I am voting for Manny Villar

I agree. :)

I don't know Villar personally but I've seen him even before he run for presidency. His works. We even saw him eating in food court in one of his mall and has been one of us.

To be a President, one should be ready. Not because someone wants him to run. Because at the end of the day, he will be the one in-charge with the whole country and will be the one to decide on a national issue!

But whoever wins, I will support him. :) I know he was there on purpose.

Let us all pray for a peaceful election.

Vote wisely.
