I made an informal survey by asking friends and relatives about their opinions on how they think are the best and simplest way our common people can help our country. Below are their top answers:
1. Obey the laws.
It’s for everybody and not only the rich but the poor as well. For those who are fortunate to have cars, they can follow the traffic rules, speed limit, parking, etc. For those who do not have cars, they can use the pedestrian lanes or the pedestrian overpass when crossing. It will not only show discipline among us but also safe for them. Accidents will then be prevented. If you happen to be riding a bus and sitting behind the driver, you can politely remind the driver to drive courteously if he is doing otherwise as he is not in the race track.
2. Throw garbage properly.
If we do not litter, we end up with clean streets.
3. Buy Filipino made products whenever possible.
It will help our economy instead of helping other countries economy. There are now world-class if not the best in the world, Philippine made products such as travelling suit case, electronics. LCD TV, etc.
4. Always ask for official receipt.
This will generate funds for our government which could be used for our progress.
5. Write or talk positive things about our country.
Let us not criticize ourselves. We have to protect our image. We can help every time we talk positive about our country. Invite other people to visit the Philippines and enjoy our beautiful beaches and the very warm Filipino hospitality. See for themselves how peaceful it is here and not the way as portrayed by some of our media.
6. Pray for our country.
Prayer helps and if we do it all together every 7 in the morning, a 10 seconds daily prayer, we will be heard.
support our leaders instead of throwing criticisms on them.
