Have you seen the latest Noynoy Aquino TV commercial, where he talks about corruption being the problem, resulting in poverty? (Korupsyon ang problema, kahirapan ang resulta)
Here’s the video:
Here’s a quick translation:
Our country is like a beautiful house
that is slowly getting destroyed because
we got cheated (and got poor materials).
The funds were stolen/poached.
That is the effect of corruption, too.
More people are becoming poor,
many are oppressed…
because of corruption.
We have eversince been hardworking.
We have always been persevering.
But we are always cheated.
Corruption is the problem.
Poverty is the result.
The fight is not yet over.
I will continue (the fight).
Here is another version of the Noynoy Aquino commercial about corruption:
And here’s the loose translation:
This is the road that can be built from your funds.
But this is what was built.
The result of corruption and substandard materials.
They say we have a multi-billion fund for
health insurance and new hospitals.
That is correct.
But here we are… Our people are still
lining-up (or queueing) in decrepit health centers.
(They say there are no funds.)
Corruption is the problem.
Suffering is the result.
The fight is not yet over.
I will continue (the fight).
