Bayani Fernando

Metro Manila is polluted, dirty and unattractive as it is but do we really need the face of Bayani Fernando plastered along the major highways every 500 meters? I hate driving in Commonwealth Avenue what with the useless pink fences, reckless drivers that the traffic enforcers does not apprehend, deadly U-turn slots that doesn't help the flow of traffic at all, sidewalk vendors that come and go and pedestrians who risk their lives and the motorists lives with their deadly decisions to run and play patintero with buses, jeepneys, tricycles, motorcycles, cars, you name it! And he wanted to run for vice president? Come on?! Can somebody explain to me how could his useless slogans help discipline the Filipino people. How the pink fences provide aesthetic and appeal to the city? I mean, It is so third world. Add to that the pink urinals along the highways that leave stench and tolerates the male population to relieve their full bladder at just about anywhere. Is that what you call Metro Gwapo? I am sure he has a lot of supporters specially from Marikina whom he managed to govern properly as some might say. But Marikina is Marikina. Metro Manila is a different story. The Republic of the Phillipines will become one hell of a playground if we let BF govern us. As a taxpayer I know I have all the right to express my opinion. The cost of contructing each one of BF's projects is worth millions when in fact it could cost less. He has become a billionaire out of this projects I suppose. I am not saying that people should not vote for him, I for one will not. But his early campaign will just prove that he wants the power of a higher position. And I fear that.
