President Nonoy's Sona Speech Reaction paper
Reaction Paper on the State of the Nation Address of President Benigno Aquino III:
“Equal Opportunities”

It is President Noynoy’s 4th SONA. Seems to me that it had already been 3 years and counting when his Excellency have been elected as the President of the Republic of the Philippines and I can see as he presented his SONA that all this time, he was really working himself out for our country. Many people have been all ears for President Noynoy’s SONA- some maybe to see the progress of the country, some to witness him fail his promises and some like me were required to make a reaction paper. But all in all we all have the responsibility to care what is going on now during his term, what he had already done and achieved. There were things that I want my opinions to specifically focus on. In his speech, he had talked about the opportunities for everyone especially among who need them most. This includes the scholarship programs for TESDA. Our college has a building sharing with TESDA. I see youth of my age and those who I know who cannot afford education from private institutions and cannot meet the educational background requirements studying in TESDA. I see hope to those people who wants to learn despite of financial problems. In his SONA he said,“ Noong araw po, ayon sa pag-aaral ng DBM noong 2006 hanggang 2008, ang nakahanap ng trabaho sa mga napagtapos ng TESDA: 28.5 percent lamang. Noong lumipas na taon naman po: sa IT-BPO program, 70.9 percent ang employment rate ng ating mga napatapos sa TESDA. Sa electronics and semiconductor program naman, umabot sa 85 porsyento ng mga nagtapos noong 2012 ang nagkatrabaho.”. He reports the success rate of finding a job after studying in TESDA. He proved that if you cannot afford education that is not the end of striving to learn and improve one’s self. And that success wasn’t just because of him. It was the product of the student’s eagerness to learn and the administrator’s eagerness to help

    Subject C presented herself as a studious person, and someone who was always keen on self-improvement. In response to my question on why she rejected the pursuit of higher education, Subject C answered with a single word: “Family”. Elaborating on the economic well-being of average Singaporeans back in the 1970s, she made it clear that there has been a huge generational need to modern times – where access to tertiary education has been made available to all realms of society. Yet, this was far from her days, where survival was prioritized and anyone with minimum qualifications is expected to seek employment. Besides, attempting to pay for higher education would have “left the family living out in the…

    he start of a new administration after the May 10, 2010 national elections has raised public hopes of a break from the past. Various crises marked the last decade under the Arroyo administration: highest-level graft, corruption and electoral fraud, breaches of the rule of law, systematic human rights violations and political repression, and greater economic misery of the people. These were due to the Arroyo government, which is over, but as well to other deeper and more daunting underlying conditions. The Philippines faces serious challenges on many fronts: tens of millions in chronic poverty, extremes of social inequality, a recurring fiscal emergency, eroded long-term economic viability amid a still unfolding global crisis, severe political repression, weak and undemocratic institutions of governance, systemic corruption, armed conflict, and lack of national sovereignty. There could be an interlude of relative calm in the country especially compared to the persistent turmoil of past years as a new government coalesces around the Aquino administration with its fresh and solid mandate. Yet undercurrents of possible tension remain: intra-elite rivalries, fragile public finances, an unbalanced economy, and unremitting demands for social, political and economic justice. If new and significant directions are not quickly and decisively charted, the country could easily revert to its accustomed instability. It is only two weeks into the new administration but initial efforts of the Aquino government in this critical early stage, measured against the gravity of the accumulated problems, do not yet give reason to be optimistic over the long-term. There are…

    I always wanted to see what will be my life in the future. As I reminisced my childhood years, I have many dreams and aspirations that I would like to accomplish. Like to become an actress, model, beauty queen and the like, amazing isn’t it? Look how ‘ambisyosa’ I am. When I was in high school, those dreams of mine changed. Maybe because that’s too impossible to happen with the situation I have. Yes, like any other students here in NORSU, I also belong to a poor family. It was my family who decided what will be my course. I never heard a question from them saying, ‘Unsa imung ganahan nga kurso day? Kay musuporta rami.’ One time when I intentionally opened up what course I want or like, the conversation always ended up with ‘ayaw nang kurso nga mahal, kana rang barato.’ But look I am today, a 3rd year education student who now loves her course. I realized that teaching is really my passion.…
