THOUGHT BUBBLE:
It seems that most of our politicians seek power mainly to make themselves rich (i.e., steal from the country's coffers).
If I were a politician...
MORE THAN making myself super rich and consequently having a crack at life's luxuries, it would be such a huge feat and honor to be known or recognized as the person who pulled his country out of the dumps. Think Singapore's Lee Kwan Yew. I think South Korea has its share of success as well. Imagine if the Philippines becomes one of Asia's success stories, I think, that would be just crazy amazing and not even billions of riches will be able to give you that sense of satisfaction and fulfillment.
If I were a politician...
My top 3 agenda would be as follows:
1. Children (i.e., Education)
2. Livelihood (i.e., Employment)
3. Sustainability (i.e., Environment)
