President Benigno S. Aquino III joined the
celebration of Easter on Sunday (April 5), calling on the people to be one in
building a country that is peaceful, full of opportunities, free from
corruption, and devoted to God.
In his Easter message, President Aquino reminded that strong faith and choosing to do what is right help people in their daily struggles in life.
“Katulad ito ng pinagdaanan ng ating bayan: Sa mahabang panahon, nagpasasa ang iilan sa butas-butas na sistema, walang tiwala ang mamamayan sa kanilang pamahalaan, at mababa ang pagtingin ng mundo sa ating bansa. Subalit hindi nagpatalo ang sambayanan. Pinagsama-sama nila ang kanilang tinig, at nagpasyang tahakin ang tuwid na landas,” the President said.
He attributed the resurgence in the economy, which has led to the country’s transformation from being the Sick Man of Asia to Asia’s Rising Tiger, to the people’s trust and support.
“Narating natin ang lahat ng ito dahil sa inyong suporta at pagtitiwala. At habang nananatili kayong tagapagbigay ng lakas, maaabot natin ang mas matatayog pang pangarap,” he said.
He however warned that there are those who would seek to discredit the administration, despite its numerous successes.
"Asahan na rin ninyo: Habang papalapit ang eleksiyon ay dodoble kayod ang mga gustong maghasik ng pagdududa at sirain ang tiwala natin sa isa't isa," he said.
The President further noted that the country is at the crossroads regarding the talks to bring lasting peace in Mindanao.
“Magpapadala ba tayo sa galit at takot, o pipiliin nating tapusin ang siklo ng kahirapan at karahasan sa Mindanao?” he asked.
He said that so long as the people continue to trust the government and shun corruption, they could make the country’s transformation permanent.
“Sa pagbubunyi natin sa pagbabalik ni Kristo, at sa pag-alala natin sa mga nakamit nating tagumpay, magkakaroon tayo ng lakas na ituloy ang ating laban. Sama-sama nating pandayin ang isang Pilipinas na mas mapayapa at hitik sa oportunidad, tunay na malaya sa katiwalian, at higit na malapit sa ating Panginoon,” President Aquino said.
