The old man told me how shameful we have become as a nation. He was reffering to the news that came out last week.
Data collected from interviews with over 1,476 business men who are operative throughout the Asian continent showed that the Philippines ranks first place among nations with the highest level of corruption. Close runners up China, Indonesia and Vietnam.
"How did we end up so?" He further asked.
"What have we done to our country?"
Questions that should be asked. Questions that should be answered.
Honestly. Truthfully. Painfully.
