TraPo

It's about time for me to post this entry. I haven't been active in a while but I make sure my post is something juicy. SO, here it goes. TraPo is an abbreviation for "Traditional Politician" here in the Philippines. Trapo refers also to a Rag, a piece of cloth that is used to wipe off any furniture or even the floor. Why did I use TraPo as my title? simply because, I noticed that not only in the Philippine government this TraPo exist. Even in student organization body or a private firm. Still don't get the point? Browse down for more.

Recently, there was this Facebook group for our college. I saw someone post as if he (YES, he is a male person) is concern about the welfare of students. Here was his post at the mentioned Facebook group:

 Fellow Lasallians and CEAT students! Are you ready for the upcoming Prelim Exam? Study hard and enjoy the upcoming Christmas break! 5 days to go, it's party time! :))

It's just the person posted the message is not part of the current student council. Maybe he's concern, maybe he has another intention. To be honest, I am really intrigued by his post. Now that the upcoming campaign and elections for our university's student council is getting closer and closer. That person is an example of TraPo.. Posting something to make himself known to the community. Why did I say so? I think profoundly than others. I might have given malice to the post, but that is how I think.

So, this is the right time for me to say: Vote the deserving person. Not those who says, they did something (but they didn't). We are all college students and has the ability and freedom to choose, but choose CORRECTLY. In the end, it will be us who will benefit from the correct decision we make, or suffer if we didn't make the right decision or haven't decided at all.
