President Noynoy Aquino rebuked the employees of the Bureau of Customs on their Founding Anniversary. He exposed all their anomalous practices and even criticized one of their employees for driving an expensive sports car and shooting at innocent students who accidentally grazed his expensive ride.
I agree with the President in not tolerating rotten eggs in the Government, he should reprimand and punish those who defy, disregard, besmirch, defame and slander the laws of the land. More so if the offender is a Government Employee who abuses and disrespects the citizenry whose taxes are used to pay for their salaries and expenses of their offices.
But come to think of it, the President also used to drive a Porsche which he allegedly bought pre-owned a few months after he got elected, which he later had to sell off due to public criticism (I bet it's still in his possession, just hidden in one his garages at the Hacienda Luisita). He also loves guns as he's a certified gun enthusiast and he regularly shoots them off at the firing/shooting range. So do you think it was wise of him to reprimand these rotten eggs in our government? Do you think these scumbags in Government will heed his call to an honest and upright government service?
No, I don't think anybody will comply with the President's call to honesty and morality in Government. They will just play "Hide and Seek" with him. Why? Because he himself used to drive an expensive sports car, loves firearms, refuses to obey the Supreme Court decision to distribute the Hacienda Luisita to the farmers and a lot more. So how does he expect others to follow his orders if he himself is giving the wrong example? Maybe the President haven't heard of the saying, "Practice first what you preach!".
