New Year, new hopes, new Philippines?

THAT’S THE TITLE of Harvey S. Keh‘s Filofax column in Manila Bulletin last Sunday and I am echoing it here in my blog because it aptly represents my thoughts and dreams for the New Year — †New Hopes! †I am not sure about ‘New Philippines’ though. †But ignore me on that. †It’s just the pessimist and cynical me. (Do I sound like I am describing you, too?, LOL)

I was hoping to find the online version of the article so I can put a link here but it is not yet available, apparently. †I will post the link as soon as it becomes available.

“The challenge for us is to leave behind our old ways of being apathetic and indifferent to politics in our country.† If we want a new Philippines and if we want a better future for all of us, then we have to become new Filipinos as well…”

- Harvey S. Keh on Filofax,†Manila Bulletin, Jan 4 (page K-4)
