Fellow Filipinos! We Should Be Thankful To Our President At All



president duterte on covid-19 pandemic


Covid-19 Pandemic, is truly a world problem that not only affects the health of the people but also the world economy. Many governments around the world are in hurry to contain this pandemic and scramble to find the cure or vaccines.

One of the governments to scramble in action on this Covid-19 Pandemic, is the Philippines (my home country). My president (Rodrigo Duterte) immediately makes an action so that, the virus will not infect more Filipinos.

Luckily, I did not yet infected on this, since I lived in a province. But there are those unfortunate individuals being infected by this Covid-19. This pandemic is a serious event that any information to prevent it, should follow thoroughly.

Of-course, information’s related to this issue is found everywhere, both in internet and in physical mediums.

So, getting the right information is very crucial this time, any mis information could lead to a problem which will have greater effect to us, Filipinos.

Only the DOH, is official source of information related to Covid-19. Any website or blog sharing information about this pandemic, should be examine carefully.

The government lead by our President (Rodrigo Duterte), is doing all the necessary actions just to slow-down the transmission of this pandemic in the Philippines. From, providing the necessary equipment’s to the frontliners (mask, PPE’s, etc.), securing the fund for the Filipino citizen just to make it through this difficult time, to locking down the entire country just to make sure no more outsider (with possible illness) will enter.


With this following government actions, people are angry, doing those pathetic rallies instead being thankful to them. I don’t really understand that kind of mentality, where the government is doing it to prevent the spread to more Filipinos yet, they blame because of this and because of that.

What kind of citizens are we (Filipinos)?, do we like what’s happened to Italy?, where the government is basically surrendered to this pandemic. Because, they’re people are not listening and not following what their government is telling in the first place. So, they will suffer for in subordination.

Then, there’s the spread of fake information, where I don’t have any idea at all, why they’re doing that at all. And remember, information dissemination is one of the key aspects in preventing the further spread of this virus to us.

 Also, why there’s still some Filipinos that are attacking our President, instead just being thankful to him by doing an action on this current situation.

Our government’s action is not perfect, our president is not perfect, but he is doing what really needs to be done just to save many Filipinos as possible on this pandemic. Imagine, if somewhat the infected Filipinos reach 50,000? Could our hospital accommodate them all? The answer is No.

Just follow those simple prevention tips provided by DOH, those tips are based on the study by other health organization worldwide. So, that tips such handwashing, could help you fight this pandemic.

Lastly, try to appreciate those frontliners that you encounter daily. Those policemen, those doctors and nurses, give them an appreciation they deserve. Those makes a sacrifice daily, especially those on hospital, because they are the one who cares for those infected individuals. And, they might never know if they are already infected also.


So, they should respect at all times, since they are just doing their jobs to make us Filipinos, not infected on this illness.

The positive side on this current situation, it is a highly survivable illness if you don’t have any pre-existing health problems. And also, this pandemic will be gone soon, if we are going to follow the governments order to us.

The success in fighting this Covid-19 Pandemic, starts on ourselves, be vigilant in reading related information, follow the orders from your own local government, and please STAY AT HOME, if there’s no important things you do outside.

Hope that this post might enlightened yourself, begin change within yourself. Together, we can defeat the spread of this Pandemic.
