“The 2012 State of the Nation Address (SONA) of the Philippine
President Benigno S. Aquino III”
The SONA of the President is very
important to the people because it deals about the standing of our country.
This is his third SONA and he report one by one all the changes and success from
the beginning of his tenure as a President of the state.
The SONA of PNoy was quite too long compared to other SONAs of other
state/presidents but still there’s nothing difference when he speech in public
to deliver his nation’s address. Even if many people believed that Aquino’s
Administration is slow moving but surely progress. He was just only moving step
by step to reach out his promises to us. He almost mentions all the development
happens in the Philippines but those successes is not yet enough because there is
some improvement that needs to be attained as the head of the state.
It’s not easy of the President to completely fulfill his promises but he
was trying to do his duty in providing good governance in our country and
give attention to all problems facing by every Filipinos, President Noynoy
Aquino is highlighted the government corruptions happened from the past
administration and also comparing his accomplishment to the GMA administration.
It might view to the mind of the public that be really blamed the wasted years during
the term of GMA administration by serving the people with integrity.
However, President must not focus on bashing those personnel serving in
the public/removing them on their position who are involved on the corruption
of GMA Administration. Instead, he must look forward to the progress of the
economy and become more aware of what are those problems which are not given a
chance to resolve. And become more progressive not only for himself but for all
of us.
The SONA contains the boosts that the country has received a positive
international commentary: the improving economic environment, the credit
upgrade by major credit rating companies and the positive investment
endorsement coming from major investment banking groups and institutions.
And also, he provides enough funds from small sector to big sector of our
country and from local to national budget.
In general, the SONA was clear to the public in listening his speech because
he was commonly used the national language which is Tagalog. It may not be 100%
PROGRESSIVE but it is 100% IMPRESSIVE.
