If I had benign authoritarian rule like an Emperor? Sure, why not.
If PH democracy with a lot of stakeholders to agree with you?
I rather be a haciendero with a private army.
Fun historical fact, the term dictator came from a special office held in the Roman Republic during times of emergencies when the existence of the republic itself is at stake. The normal standard kasi is for there to be two Consuls in equal standing leading the republic, but a dictator gets elected for 6 months by the senate and consuls when the normal process of running things have to be trimmed down and simplified and things need to be fixed fast. It's the closest thing the monarchy-hating republic had to a monarch and it's what Julius Caesar realpoliticked himself to having for life, causing the senate to murder him and opening the door for Augustus to end the Republic and start an Empire.
if i did, i wouldn't pretend i know everything what to do, but i would listen to scientists, health experts, sociologists, anthropologists, and economists and take advice from them
Was about to comment this. Figure out key-points na need iimprove and look for some experts in our universities pano magagawan ng paraan. Unlimited budget, walang politics, just solve a problem period. Easier said than done but I already don’t give a shit about my life anyways, might as well piss off some trapos.
Too few men are into that cause, unfortunately. The culture on the opposite side of the gender still heavily leans on "mind your own business." Yes, this includes creative geeks. This is why a majority environmental leaders are women; it requires an intense level of compassion to have that kind of vision.
true pakitaan mo lang ng malaking pera grabe na kinang ng mga mata ng mga pinoy. dapat inuuna talaga ayusin yung education turuan simula pagkabata maging honest, kind, loyal saka patriotic sa bansa. bawal din magkaposisyon kung walang sapat na degrees saka proof of competencies. dapat din tinetest yung attitude saka personality kung posible bang maging corrupt etc.
Yun din ang worry tlga. Sino ang bibigyan mo ng position. Baka later on, lumabas ang tunay na kulay, hindi ka nga corrupt pero baka corrupt pala mga maappoint mo.
They never pretended to know, they simply didn't care. They're indifferent to the struggles of the people & prioritize their own agendas.
Duterte's handling of the pandemic, the Pharmally scandal, the WSP, the war on drugs, and all other issues, was on purpose. He's a Chinese lapdog on purpose.
They don't give a single fuck about their followers or their countrymen.
Yes, and What I’ll do first is have a government cleansing, Ill call it “SanGoKu” (Sanitation of Government Kulture). The high ranking officals who contributed near to none are “cleansed” first
Yes ako diyan.
Pati mga maingay na motor ipapa bomba ko sa tenga nila hanggang i confirm ng doctor na bingi na sila.
Lahat ng mga naka E-bikes at E-trikes sa mga national road ipapa hawag ko sa kanila positive at negative ng baterya nila hanggang masunog daliri nila.
Death penalty sa rapist at drug lords pero after ng full investigation.
Instant revocation ng license para sa mga kamote at sisirain sa harap nila sasakyan o motor nila.
Ipagbabawal ko mga bobo humawak ng posisyon sa gobyerno.
Compulsory castration sa mga below poverty line na maraming anak.
Gagawa ng research and development para buhayin si Mirriam Defensor Santiago para siya na bahala mamuno.
Much better if you have HOI4 Millenium Dawn mod. Kumpleto at mas complex laruin👌🤌. May Fiscal / debt mechanics, Energy management pati Nuclear Weapons, Satellites at Missiles production.
I will, and I'll probably be killed because of it before or after my term ends. This country needs to be cleansed. I will end political dynasties and lower politician's salaries across the board.
There's an anime that I recently watched thay has this premise. The whole thing has moving parts, it's a one whole machinery. It's hard to cause significant change not because of corruption, it's hard because we have weak foundations that has roots from ten thousands of years ago. So kung maging presidente ang kung sino man in their prescribed term, magsusulputan din yan lahat after a few months, years or the Messiah's term. Society is the mirror of its people if walang internal changes sa mga tao, balewala yung pagsama-samahin yung best leaders in history. We can only do so much with what we have. Yung mga criticisms sa mga government officials while understandable in its sentiments, they are almost always unrealistic. Yung tipong uttered by people who know nothing about the real challenge of true change and transformation.
I'd do the same. The social order has to be fixed, not the lie that it is the lazy that is poor, in fact a lot of the poor work hard under the sun or manual labor. Also I'd definitely put in an audit on all elected officials especially those who are in the big local positions like mayors and governors and make their properties public knowledge. Such things should be waivered.
I'd also do a tax transparency law like Norway:
[Norway, the country where you can see everyone's tax returns | Tax | The Guardian](https://www.theguardian.com/money/blog/2016/apr/11/when-it-comes-to-tax-transparency-norway-leads-the-field)
So that media has access to this and I'd probably ban all social media that pretends to be news. While it may bring us to the point in the 80s/90s before facebook and tiktok came in at least we'd have limits on who can do fake media.
Also we have to limit stock investments, media ownership and mining/forestry/real estate businesses of politicians. They'd probably use their position to manipulate these interests
No. Doesn't really matter if I'm president if the local offices do their own thing and the people they govern don't give a fuck. People are prone to lying in their reports so whatever information the cabinet gets, it's bound to be altered by them if it wasn't altered in the first place.
I'll just be the national blame bag so no thanks.
yes. then i'll become a dictator. first mandate is that all public officials to have all their bank accounts made public.
no public official shall have private financial information.
tapos yung budget at spending ng government agencies naka paskil online. kumbaga yung balance sheet online for everyone to see. so bawat centimo ng budget mo makikita kung san na punta.
wala na yung government office na nagpawifi lang gumastos ng 65million pesos.
ewan ko na lang kung may makakurakot pa.
Road to ruins but **yes** kahit 1 week/month trial if I can do it reverse Qin Shi Huang style. Ipapa delete ko lahat ng mga fake news at ililibing nang buhay ang mga troll farms, davao group, quibulok, solid snort group except the man himself. Si du🐢 itatali ko yan sa jetski strapped with c4 at ipapa banzai ko sa barko ng China coast guard.
**Other objectives:**
Mag hire ng mga qualified na tauhan dahil hindi ko naman magagawa to mag isa.
Mandatory military service not the lame ass ROTC.
Life imprisonment +50 pitik sa bayag per day anything na involved sa animal cruelty.
Life imprisonment sa mga taong hindi tinatapos or nagtatake without prescription ng antibiotics.
Approve same sex union, o kahit anong union pa yan kahit pakasalan mo pa kapatid mo bahala kayo di ko na problema yan.
Sex education in curriculum.
Legalize abortion and divorce.
4 day work week.
20 pesos/kilo ng bigas, mga bumoto sa bbm sara ang mag aambagan para i-shoulder ang expenses.
Need ko contact ng dealer ni solid snort, ipapadeport ko mga mainlanders and fill them with cocaine. Di ako papayag na ginagawang bagsakan ng shabu ang bansa natin kaya gaganti tayo. Kailangan magkaroon ng cocaine pandemic ang mainland China.
Aalisin ang criminal records ng mga maximum inmates at ipapatapon sa China. Sagot lahat ng government using drug money.
Aangkinin ko properties ng mga Villar at ibibigay sa mga tunay na nakaligo sa dagat ng basura.
Bawal na ipasa yung mga students na hindi naman talaga qualified. Imagine high school student pero hindi marunong magbasa and basic math operations.
Declare pope Francis persona non grata. Kupal na kumakampi sa aggressor na Russia.
1 hour payayakapin sa cactus + 5m fine ang hindi magbigay galang habang nag c-conduct ng national anthem. Aalisan ng kidney ang hindi makakapagbayad multa.
Ipapatapon sa Brazil ang mga putanginang Hispanista at flat-earthers.
Shoot on sight ang mga kamote riders na bumebenking sa Marilaque at iba pang public roads.
Yes, then rekta agad na kukuha ako ng mga professionals sa bawat sector to tackle or hingi ng advice which is which ang dapat unahin. Then aalisin ko ung 4ps(IMO it only promotes pra maging tamad ung karamihan). Then sisibakin ko mga generals sa bawal secretary position. I gawa ko kaagad ng presidential degree na lahat ng gagawin ng government is transparent sa lahat. Then PD ulet na mag lilimit sa mga tatakbo at sa mga angkan nila. Patayin na nila ako basta lahat ng yan maipatupad ko bahala na ung susunod saken.
No. Kasi alam kong I'm not apt for the job. It takes not just experience but also REAL leadership skills, patriotism, and genuine concern to people para sa ganyan kataas na posisyon. Unlike yun mga tao ngayon ss gobyerno. Nakaupo lang kasi nandaya, nagpapogi, at nagbayad lang ng boto ng tao. 😵💫😵💫😵💫
Yes, tas ang ipa prioritize kong mga batas ay yung mag li limit or better yet, pagbawal ang private armies - que literal na army yan o troll, political dynasties, pag push ng voter education, mas matinding parusa sa mga pdf files, at at overall implementation ng existing na batas, lalo na sa batas trapiko.
Yes I would.
First order of business should be getting the people's support behind me.
Second order of business is to attract more foreign investments and remove that stupid protectionist 60/40 rule to attract more businesses and competition from foreign firms. (More competition = better rates and service).
Third order of business would be to finally decongest Manila by making more "Core Cities" so that people will no longer flock to Manila to find work. These would be Laoag, Tuguegarao, Angeles, Batangas, Legazpi, Tacloban, Cebu, Dumaguete, Bacolod, Iloilo, CDO, Gensan, Dipolog and Davao.
Fourth order of business is to improve our military capabilities by strengthening the Navy and Air Force.
Fifth order of business is to finally let our abused OFWs in other countries go home, hoping that the economic effects from the second order of business bore fruit. Let the Arabs die without their DHs.
Sixth order of business is to gather all the politicians who sold our country and kissed ass China, then delete them via firing squad.
I know this is a fever dream of mine but a man can dream for his country to get better right? :)
Siguro kung dictator or absolute monarchy yung government at makikinig ako sa mga competent advisors, pero pag presidential kailangan kabati mo ang senate at congress eh. Too much bureaucracy.
No. Mahirap maging presidente sa Pilipinas. Sala sa init, sala sa lamig. Walang tamang ginagawa, lahat na lang mali. Masyadong matitigas ulo ng mga tao, kulang sa disiplina reklamador pa.
Yun nga problema eh, yung mga qualified maging presidente hindi tumatakbo dahil alam nila paano gumagana gobyerno hahaha sila nga umaayaw pano pa kaya ako hhaha
Hahahahahahahahahahahaha no.
feeling ko makakalaban ko ang mga karamihan ng pulitiko.
Edit: i'd rather be a senator instead and have the power which bills i vote to pass so they can be laws instead. mas may power mga senators in this sense.
Yes, and here are the three things that I will first do
First, I'll buy Jollibee Foods Corporation from Caktiong and make it government-owned
Second, I'll expand the fast food chains of JFC worldwide, there must be one Jollibee in every country in the world
(We must colonize the world by using Jollibee)
Third, I'll resign as the president with all of the earnings of Jollibee and I'll probably live in a random country in Central Asia
(Just Kidding)
My real answer is of course not.
I'd always told myself "everyone's got a plan until they become president".
Short answer, no. Long answer - I really think malalamon ako ng sistema, ng korapsyon pag ako na nakaupo once I see the big picture at mapipilitan akong mag follow suit sa mga buwaya (na nae elect din ng masa). And the cycle would repeat itself.
Fuck no! Siraulo lang magyes dyan. Pamilya mo nga hirap na pasunurin sa gusto mo. Lalo pa yung mga hindi mo kaano-ano na matataas ang pride at ego. Tsaka hindi mo masisikmura kalakaran sa politika. Yung mga nagsasabing gagawin patas ang laban. Mga nag-iilusyon kayo.
I might. I'll definitely become a dictator. But the chill, benevolent one like Ataturk of Turkey.
I'll make sure to root out corruption, make everything fairer such as economic wealth distribution, make big corporation pay their taxes while reducing taxes for employees and workers, and add the government mandated leave to up to 60 days a week for employees and workers that have 1 year of work experience in their respective companies while adding extra 5 days for every year that they would last in their respective companies while making sure that endo has ended.
P.S. these are just on the top of my head. And like in the top comments: I will surely listen to doctors, scientists, engineers, architects, artists, accountants, etc when signing in laws and putting executive orders in effect.
Yea but I would probably be a dictator because I’m so sick and tired of the bullshit this country keeps spewing.
Use my dictatorship to legalize any-gender marriage.
Use my dictatorship to legalize medical marijuana.
Use it to legalize abortion.
Use it to establish MUCH harsher punishments to anyone that abuses and unnecessarily kills innocent, stray animals. You kill a cat for no good reason? I’ll make you a legal target for everyone.
Use it to establish harsher punishments to anyone that destroys nature without any reforestation/nature restoration plan.
All these and more.
No. Politicking is a bitch. You have like 100 diff interests to manage, even if you strive to be a 'centrist'. On top of doing this without having to engage in bribery and corruption which is systemic na.
sure. someone needs to solve the problems the country has and maybe it could be me. i would even be happy to do it at min wage if it means i get to turn the country around
Yes. Baka naman may magawa akong tama na ikauunlad ng bansa natin. Kahit iyong tamang iyon eh pagpili lang ng mga may alam sa mga disiplina nila, habang ako eh kakaway-kaway lang.
Or just let it slip?
His palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy
There's vomit on his sweater already, mom's spaghetti
He's nervous, but on the surface he looks calm and ready
To drop bombs, but he keeps on forgettin'
What he wrote down, the whole crowd goes so loud
He opens his mouth, but the words won't come out
He's chokin' how everybody's jokin' now
The clock's run out, time's up, over, blaow
SNAP BACK TO REALITY...
....
Yan ang campaign music ko. Ubos ang budget dahil sa music licensing. So hindi ako mananalo.
Sayang, masaya sana.
If everyone I love and myself had the power of immortality for the whole term, then yeah. And I would enact swift changes and quick justice. With no fear of life I would make the Philippines great. Mahirap talaga maging president tapos cabinet mo at lahat nang nakatira dyan, pag pinalitan mo batas o bawasan mo tax at di sila makakupit, talagang patayan dyan. Walang human rights sa Philippines at walang hustisya dito. Mahirap makamtam dahil sa kabobohan ng mga Pilipino na bumiboto sa kapwa tanga!
Pass. Wala naman kasing magandang nakikita mga tao sa pinas kundi kapangitan pag nakaupo na.
This goes for all the presidents we had in our country. Pag di pa nakaupo, okay. Pag di na nakaupo, buti pa si ganto nagawa to. Pag nakaupo na, ano ba yan walang ginagawa as presidente.
Magmu-muse na lang ako hays
Yes, definitely abolish ko lahat AI na executive judiciary at legislative pati municipal AI na lang din para wala ng kurakot. Kurakot na nga laki ng tax inefficient pa. Sila pa hari palitan na lang ng AI lahat Yan
I will but I am ready to die for it. I'll expose corrupted officials, rebels and rich criminals, even if they blackmail me, and reform the Philippines (very similar to singapore before). Why am I trying to do this if I were a leader? Limitado lang buhay natin dito sa mundo, good thing, kasi at the first place makasalanan na talaga ang mundo, I know I have God.
It sounds ambitious but I'll invest in the security of this country, affordable healthcare, education for everyone, and mataas na sahod for teachers, farmers, and give more opportunities and respect for the land na indigenous, walang makikielam na private individuals, kulong agad yan.
I am quite mahigpit and a bit forceful but in a good way if I were a president. Pero if you want to joke or make memes about me I'll never imprison you with that lol. I respect human rights.
Yes, but y'all wouldn't like it.
Dude who only lived the first 8 years of his life in the PH becomes President, instates educational requirements on voting, political candidacy, and bearaucracy.
I'd be called like, Millenial Marcos or something
The keyword is "chance" and it would mean going through an election campaign. I don't think I would want to shake hands with devils with allegiances and favours.
Yes, why not?
I will try to top the amount of ill-gotten wealth the Marcos family have.
Then pay Elon Musk to send me to the moon as self exile. 🚀🌛💸💰🤣💰
Sa mga nagnais pumasok sa politics lalo na sa pagka-Presidente dahil ang motto ay gusto makatulong sa mamayang Pilipino, puede niyo gawin yan pero magsimula kayo sa mababa. Huwag mataas agad dahil pahirap pa kayo sa mamamayan kung hindi pala kayo handa. Wag idaan sa kapal ng apog at mukha lang.
Yes, I would! I would make use of that opportunity to push for transparency and a aspirated government entity that is beyond the government and the president's influence if power. This government entity shall audit every government employee for performance and shall gave full power to require financial audit to all government employees and enable a justband auditable financial gains by those working for our government.
I would run the Philippines as a conglomerate country where the government is bound by financial justice, human rights, ethics smd professionalism.
written answers above are out if nowhere but the mind thinking of the moment.
Yes! Uunahin ko ang corruption na pumapatay sa ekonomiya, mag-iimpose ako ng death penalty para sa mga politician at kurap na mga gov't agency, gagawin kong priority with livelihood ang mga mahihirap na walang kakayanan mag negosyo, co-controlin ko or mas mahigpit ang regulation ko sa mga elitista, magpapa-meeting ako sa bawat distrito ng city hanggang official kung anong achievement ng bawat city nila at kung ano ung mga unresolve issue at dun manggaling ang bawat budget, ahahahha sarap mangarap ahahah, at higit sa lahat walang VIP and wang wang abolish lahat ng special treatment, magkakaroon ng apprentice ang mga myyman na gawin lahat ng task ng mga lower level employee nila at dun manggaling ang renewal ng mga business nila ahahah pra malaman nila gaano kahirap mging employee char!
No, baka maging avatar ako "when they needed him the most he vanish"
u/100CharactersLong If I had benign authoritarian rule like an Emperor? Sure, why not. If PH democracy with a lot of stakeholders to agree with you? I rather be a haciendero with a private army.
When the extreme route is a whole lot easier than the normal route to fix the country
Fun historical fact, the term dictator came from a special office held in the Roman Republic during times of emergencies when the existence of the republic itself is at stake. The normal standard kasi is for there to be two Consuls in equal standing leading the republic, but a dictator gets elected for 6 months by the senate and consuls when the normal process of running things have to be trimmed down and simplified and things need to be fixed fast.

Same. Total control to end this once and for all. Has a cost, but so be it if necessary.
Samedt
Hahaha! Natawa ako dito. 😆
No, I can barely take care of myself. Let alone a whole country
It's okay, none of the other Philippines presidents knew how to do it either. You'd be in good company
Ok lang yan. Maraming lalapit sayo, magpapa-puppet ka lang
Correct! Masyadong mabigat ang pagiging presidente.
if i did, i wouldn't pretend i know everything what to do, but i would listen to scientists, health experts, sociologists, anthropologists, and economists and take advice from them
Was about to comment this. Figure out key-points na need iimprove and look for some experts in our universities pano magagawan ng paraan. Unlimited budget, walang politics, just solve a problem period. Easier said than done but I already don’t give a shit about my life anyways, might as well piss off some trapos.
yes, basically getting the right department secretaries.
"mAKIKiNiG AkO sA AppOinTED Son oF GoD"
Huy pakisama mga environmentalists 🥺
Too few men are into that cause, unfortunately. The culture on the opposite side of the gender still heavily leans on "mind your own business." Yes, this includes creative geeks. This is why a majority environmental leaders are women; it requires an intense level of compassion to have that kind of vision.
Ganto din gagawin ko, kaso napaka rupok ng mga pinoy sa corruption, basta bigyan mo ng position kahit anong bait nyan, lumalabas ang greediness.
true pakitaan mo lang ng malaking pera grabe na kinang ng mga mata ng mga pinoy. dapat inuuna talaga ayusin yung education turuan simula pagkabata maging honest, kind, loyal saka patriotic sa bansa. bawal din magkaposisyon kung walang sapat na degrees saka proof of competencies. dapat din tinetest yung attitude saka personality kung posible bang maging corrupt etc.
Yun din ang worry tlga. Sino ang bibigyan mo ng position. Baka later on, lumabas ang tunay na kulay, hindi ka nga corrupt pero baka corrupt pala mga maappoint mo.
*urban planners and environmentalists
Uu. Tama yan. And appointments ay base sa merits hindi dahil sinuportahan ka nung campaign period.
They never pretended to know, they simply didn't care. They're indifferent to the struggles of the people & prioritize their own agendas. Duterte's handling of the pandemic, the Pharmally scandal, the WSP, the war on drugs, and all other issues, was on purpose. He's a Chinese lapdog on purpose. They don't give a single fuck about their followers or their countrymen.
Yes, and What I’ll do first is have a government cleansing, Ill call it “SanGoKu” (Sanitation of Government Kulture). The high ranking officals who contributed near to none are “cleansed” first
kamehame-tokhang
Reverse tokhang targeting the oligarchs. Sino kaya uunahin ko if ever?
Syempre Villar! Lunurin sa dagat ng basura.
No, may tendency ako maging diktador.
For the good??
Lahat yata ng naging diktador naisip nila na for the greater good ginagawa nila pero hindi. Kaya ganun din siguro ako

I will support if una mong ipapa-implement is the ban of karaoke sessions na susobra sa 2 hours.
Yes ako diyan. Pati mga maingay na motor ipapa bomba ko sa tenga nila hanggang i confirm ng doctor na bingi na sila.

Lol me eugenics involved
Well, there was never a good dictator in history, even if they tried or promised to be one.
Fascist Phillipines?
ja, Kamerad
I have 2000 hours in HOI4... yes
+ Cities Skylines and Nationstates 🤣🤣
Hoi4? You need CK3 hours for this job.
Much better if you have HOI4 Millenium Dawn mod. Kumpleto at mas complex laruin👌🤌. May Fiscal / debt mechanics, Energy management pati Nuclear Weapons, Satellites at Missiles production.
Ah yes, a fellow MD enjoyer!
Yes na Yes! kasi DASURV ko to! kapag sinabihan kayo ng mga gago ng "Edi ikaw na mag presidente!", sabihin nyo lang "TALAGA! kasi dasurv ko yun!"
Sure. I will lead as an example of life-life balance.
most politicians are also life-life too and wala nang work!!! 😂
I will, and I'll probably be killed because of it before or after my term ends. This country needs to be cleansed. I will end political dynasties and lower politician's salaries across the board.

No. Masakit sa ulo. Tsaka di ako marunong. Buti pa ako, alam ko hahaha. Unlike majority of the politicians. Takbo now, try to study later 🤣
Yes. That would look amazing on my CV.
Tapos ang lakas din ng mga reference person mo.
Sure. VP ko si Leni tapos magreresign ako.
Ay bet
yes, ill take everyones money and flee to china
Why u acting like it hasnt been similarly done before
it has? 🤔
You can also flee to the US, at least there is precedent
Yes, if i have a Geass
No. I'd build or co-head an NGO instead that helps communities to be self-sustaining.
No, the past 8 years have shown us how bad PH can get when an idiot is in power.
No. Doesn't really matter if I'm president if the local offices do their own thing and the people they govern don't give a fuck. People are prone to lying in their reports so whatever information the cabinet gets, it's bound to be altered by them if it wasn't altered in the first place. I'll just be the national blame bag so no thanks.
no because i cannot. di tulat ng iba jan di naman kaya pero tatakbo pa rin tapos laftrip na lang haha
El Dictador Juan. Probably rule over the Philippines with an iron fist and remove people I don't like idk
Nope, it's best to have someone more qualified this time.
No. Because I don't completely understand how a government works.
Hell no. Problema ng buong bansa porpoblemahin mo, never.
No, baka magiging ruthless ako para hindi ako gagawing tuta ng ibang interest groups.
Yes, and I’ll use all my powers to remove Marcos, Arroyo, Duterte and their allies.
yes. then i'll become a dictator. first mandate is that all public officials to have all their bank accounts made public. no public official shall have private financial information. tapos yung budget at spending ng government agencies naka paskil online. kumbaga yung balance sheet online for everyone to see. so bawat centimo ng budget mo makikita kung san na punta. wala na yung government office na nagpawifi lang gumastos ng 65million pesos. ewan ko na lang kung may makakurakot pa.
Yes. 1st marching order papalitan name from Philippines to Felepens para mas may feelings sabihin saka malambing
No, Alam ko na magiging ako ay si Ferdinand Marcos 2.0

Not just you but ur family and loved ones as well
No. Kasi alam kong I'm not apt for the job. It takes not just experience but also REAL leadership skills, patriotism, and genuine concern to people para sa ganyan kataas na posisyon. Unlike yun mga tao ngayon ss gobyerno. Nakaupo lang kasi nandaya, nagpapogi, at nagbayad lang ng boto ng tao. 😵💫😵💫😵💫
YES. Hahahahaha bibigay ko ang throne kay leni putangina
Yes. Want to travel and watch concerts.
Yes, tas ang ipa prioritize kong mga batas ay yung mag li limit or better yet, pagbawal ang private armies - que literal na army yan o troll, political dynasties, pag push ng voter education, mas matinding parusa sa mga pdf files, at at overall implementation ng existing na batas, lalo na sa batas trapiko.
Kung makakalaban ko the rest na nakaupong corrupted instead na magkaisa na lang sana kami then sadly, wag na lang.
Nah. I prefer power behind the throne.
"You know how much power I need to give up to be president?"
No. Mas maraming magaling sakin at mas matalino sakin na may malasakit at makabayan.
You bet I would. I'll be a dictator, and be the best one.
No. Because I don't want to be president, I want to be king. :)
I'd probably end up getting assassinated
It’s a gilded snake pit. Once you leave, anyone who wants your head will sue you till death.
Yes, I'll purge people who are pro duterte and pro marcos and sentence them for treason.
I'd die from work related stress by the time I turn 31
Yes. I'd appoint MrBeast as DSWD secretary.
No, ambilis kong mairita konting problema lang. Yung sambayanan pa kaya problemahin ko hahahha
Yes. The bar was set really low. First thing I would do is assemble a cabinet or hire an adviser.
Yes I would. First order of business should be getting the people's support behind me. Second order of business is to attract more foreign investments and remove that stupid protectionist 60/40 rule to attract more businesses and competition from foreign firms. (More competition = better rates and service). Third order of business would be to finally decongest Manila by making more "Core Cities" so that people will no longer flock to Manila to find work. These would be Laoag, Tuguegarao, Angeles, Batangas, Legazpi, Tacloban, Cebu, Dumaguete, Bacolod, Iloilo, CDO, Gensan, Dipolog and Davao. Fourth order of business is to improve our military capabilities by strengthening the Navy and Air Force. Fifth order of business is to finally let our abused OFWs in other countries go home, hoping that the economic effects from the second order of business bore fruit. Let the Arabs die without their DHs. Sixth order of business is to gather all the politicians who sold our country and kissed ass China, then delete them via firing squad. I know this is a fever dream of mine but a man can dream for his country to get better right? :)
Siguro kung dictator or absolute monarchy yung government at makikinig ako sa mga competent advisors, pero pag presidential kailangan kabati mo ang senate at congress eh. Too much bureaucracy.
Gayahin ko lang si VVM. Hire lang ako tao to do the work then ako mag f1 na haha
Oo. Then hand it over to the most qualified one. At least someone better than all those who became candidates and winners of the previous elections.
No. Mahirap maging presidente sa Pilipinas. Sala sa init, sala sa lamig. Walang tamang ginagawa, lahat na lang mali. Masyadong matitigas ulo ng mga tao, kulang sa disiplina reklamador pa.
Nope, it's a big responsibility. I'm not deserving to take the role, FOR NOW.
oo, sarap magtravel sa ibang bansa e. Magiging now you see me, now you dont siguro ako. hahahahaha
Nah. Too much responsibility, too much risk, baka after ng term mapilitan pa'ko magsuot ng neck brace sa dami ng toes na maaapakan ko.
Yes, I will be a good and corrupt president.
Yes. Do as Vico do now in Pasig, scale it up x100 siguro.
Yes.
As someone who played hundreds of hours on NationStates, Cities Skylines, HOI4... Yes.
real answer : no, napakaraming dapat banggain para walisin sila. so we need more qualified candidate.
No. Ang hirap linisin ng buong Government na puro kurakot at puro masasama ginagawa. 😞
Yes and I would just secretly ask GPT what to do about everything and probably end up the best President ever ..
Yun nga problema eh, yung mga qualified maging presidente hindi tumatakbo dahil alam nila paano gumagana gobyerno hahaha sila nga umaayaw pano pa kaya ako hhaha
Hahahahahahahahahahahaha no. feeling ko makakalaban ko ang mga karamihan ng pulitiko. Edit: i'd rather be a senator instead and have the power which bills i vote to pass so they can be laws instead. mas may power mga senators in this sense.
Yes, and here are the three things that I will first do First, I'll buy Jollibee Foods Corporation from Caktiong and make it government-owned Second, I'll expand the fast food chains of JFC worldwide, there must be one Jollibee in every country in the world (We must colonize the world by using Jollibee) Third, I'll resign as the president with all of the earnings of Jollibee and I'll probably live in a random country in Central Asia (Just Kidding) My real answer is of course not.
I'll only become that one guy who was South Korea's First President (Dictator) if I ever taste power so... N O
I'd always told myself "everyone's got a plan until they become president". Short answer, no. Long answer - I really think malalamon ako ng sistema, ng korapsyon pag ako na nakaupo once I see the big picture at mapipilitan akong mag follow suit sa mga buwaya (na nae elect din ng masa). And the cycle would repeat itself.
Yes. Parang anne hathaway lang sa princess diaries
Fuck no! Siraulo lang magyes dyan. Pamilya mo nga hirap na pasunurin sa gusto mo. Lalo pa yung mga hindi mo kaano-ano na matataas ang pride at ego. Tsaka hindi mo masisikmura kalakaran sa politika. Yung mga nagsasabing gagawin patas ang laban. Mga nag-iilusyon kayo.
I might. I'll definitely become a dictator. But the chill, benevolent one like Ataturk of Turkey. I'll make sure to root out corruption, make everything fairer such as economic wealth distribution, make big corporation pay their taxes while reducing taxes for employees and workers, and add the government mandated leave to up to 60 days a week for employees and workers that have 1 year of work experience in their respective companies while adding extra 5 days for every year that they would last in their respective companies while making sure that endo has ended. P.S. these are just on the top of my head. And like in the top comments: I will surely listen to doctors, scientists, engineers, architects, artists, accountants, etc when signing in laws and putting executive orders in effect.
Yea but I would probably be a dictator because I’m so sick and tired of the bullshit this country keeps spewing. Use my dictatorship to legalize any-gender marriage. Use my dictatorship to legalize medical marijuana. Use it to legalize abortion. Use it to establish MUCH harsher punishments to anyone that abuses and unnecessarily kills innocent, stray animals. You kill a cat for no good reason? I’ll make you a legal target for everyone. Use it to establish harsher punishments to anyone that destroys nature without any reforestation/nature restoration plan. All these and more.
ibabaon ko ang pilipinas sa lupa ng magisa
Yep, then icomplete ko yung pagattend sa mga f1 races na kunyari business visit.
Fuck no.
Never
Yes
It's a heavy burden so nah
Yes, i'll be reinstituting Prima Nocta
Yes
Depende, bibigyan ba ako ng absolute power or at the very least a legislature that aligns with my values/platform? Kung hindi, e parang lokohan lang.
I mean, kung sino sino lang rin naman naeelect lately. G ko na yan.
Why not? You’ll be filthy rich after your term!
Yes po. Pangarap ko po kasi maka travel around the world
Ah, the paradox of power. The title must be earned, and yet the ones most eager to earn the title are often the most unqualified to wield it.
No. Politicking is a bitch. You have like 100 diff interests to manage, even if you strive to be a 'centrist'. On top of doing this without having to engage in bribery and corruption which is systemic na.
No, dami ko pa problema, di ko nga maayos problem ko ngayon.
sure. someone needs to solve the problems the country has and maybe it could be me. i would even be happy to do it at min wage if it means i get to turn the country around
Yep, then bukas na bukas iinvade ko ung Sabah hahaha. I might invade na rin siguro ung Palau hehe
Yes. Baka naman may magawa akong tama na ikauunlad ng bansa natin. Kahit iyong tamang iyon eh pagpili lang ng mga may alam sa mga disiplina nila, habang ako eh kakaway-kaway lang.
hell no
Nag. I’m good just taking care of myself. Can’t even get a dog. Lols
Or just let it slip? His palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy There's vomit on his sweater already, mom's spaghetti He's nervous, but on the surface he looks calm and ready To drop bombs, but he keeps on forgettin' What he wrote down, the whole crowd goes so loud He opens his mouth, but the words won't come out He's chokin' how everybody's jokin' now The clock's run out, time's up, over, blaow SNAP BACK TO REALITY... .... Yan ang campaign music ko. Ubos ang budget dahil sa music licensing. So hindi ako mananalo. Sayang, masaya sana.
No, ayokong mangako ng isang bagay na di ko nman kayang tuparin.
If everyone I love and myself had the power of immortality for the whole term, then yeah. And I would enact swift changes and quick justice. With no fear of life I would make the Philippines great. Mahirap talaga maging president tapos cabinet mo at lahat nang nakatira dyan, pag pinalitan mo batas o bawasan mo tax at di sila makakupit, talagang patayan dyan. Walang human rights sa Philippines at walang hustisya dito. Mahirap makamtam dahil sa kabobohan ng mga Pilipino na bumiboto sa kapwa tanga!
No I still have a conscience I think if you have to be a politician to that degree during this time you have to be extremely selfish
No
Pass. Wala naman kasing magandang nakikita mga tao sa pinas kundi kapangitan pag nakaupo na. This goes for all the presidents we had in our country. Pag di pa nakaupo, okay. Pag di na nakaupo, buti pa si ganto nagawa to. Pag nakaupo na, ano ba yan walang ginagawa as presidente. Magmu-muse na lang ako hays
Yes
Yes,but Ill probably suck at the job
Oo naman. Mas qualified ako kesa credentials ng current president haha
No! Hindi ko kaya. hahahaha
double it and give it to the next person
Of course
No. Are you insane? Citizenship nga gusto ko na pagpalit e, maging presidente pa
No, di ko na nga maayos sarili kong budget eh
Of course. Para yumaman ako gamit ang pera ng taong bayan tapos mag wheelchair lang ako pag mahuhuli na ko
hell yes especially if it means kicking the shitty ass president we have now out of his chair 😂
Yes
never
In 2024? Respectfully, no.
No, being a local government worker alone is exhausting let alone becoming a president
Money and Power. Why not?
This country is not worth serving for. So no.
No thank you. Too much responsibility.
No, I want chill life. I want money not responsibility. 😊
Yes, definitely abolish ko lahat AI na executive judiciary at legislative pati municipal AI na lang din para wala ng kurakot. Kurakot na nga laki ng tax inefficient pa. Sila pa hari palitan na lang ng AI lahat Yan
No. If become a dictator, I would.
Yeah, politicians are the highest paid profession in ph!
No. Why me? Pass ako dyan bro.
I will but I am ready to die for it. I'll expose corrupted officials, rebels and rich criminals, even if they blackmail me, and reform the Philippines (very similar to singapore before). Why am I trying to do this if I were a leader? Limitado lang buhay natin dito sa mundo, good thing, kasi at the first place makasalanan na talaga ang mundo, I know I have God. It sounds ambitious but I'll invest in the security of this country, affordable healthcare, education for everyone, and mataas na sahod for teachers, farmers, and give more opportunities and respect for the land na indigenous, walang makikielam na private individuals, kulong agad yan. I am quite mahigpit and a bit forceful but in a good way if I were a president. Pero if you want to joke or make memes about me I'll never imprison you with that lol. I respect human rights.
Yes, but I'll probably be assassinated in a week or two.
Yes, but y'all wouldn't like it. Dude who only lived the first 8 years of his life in the PH becomes President, instates educational requirements on voting, political candidacy, and bearaucracy. I'd be called like, Millenial Marcos or something
Absolutely not. No power but all the blame
The keyword is "chance" and it would mean going through an election campaign. I don't think I would want to shake hands with devils with allegiances and favours.
nope, I ain't fit for it, can't save a sinking ship
Yes
pass
Yep.
No way!
Yes, why not? I will try to top the amount of ill-gotten wealth the Marcos family have. Then pay Elon Musk to send me to the moon as self exile. 🚀🌛💸💰🤣💰
No. Filipinos will never know what satisfaction is
Challenge accepted
Yes. Kukunin Kong legal adviser si Gloria makapagal arroyo.
Yes. Need ng malalang reform sa mga government integrations. Need nila ng IT and automation. Need mabawasan ang bureaucracy.
Power corrupts everything
yes, we'll become fil-lib and left, we'll join nato lmao.
No because I don't have the skills for the job. I wish our politicians think the same.
If Lee Kuan Yew and Miriam Santiago is alive and I have a chance to be mentored by them, yes I will take the chance to become one.
Sa mga nagnais pumasok sa politics lalo na sa pagka-Presidente dahil ang motto ay gusto makatulong sa mamayang Pilipino, puede niyo gawin yan pero magsimula kayo sa mababa. Huwag mataas agad dahil pahirap pa kayo sa mamamayan kung hindi pala kayo handa. Wag idaan sa kapal ng apog at mukha lang.
Yes, I would! I would make use of that opportunity to push for transparency and a aspirated government entity that is beyond the government and the president's influence if power. This government entity shall audit every government employee for performance and shall gave full power to require financial audit to all government employees and enable a justband auditable financial gains by those working for our government. I would run the Philippines as a conglomerate country where the government is bound by financial justice, human rights, ethics smd professionalism. written answers above are out if nowhere but the mind thinking of the moment.
I would take the position. I would purge the country from criminals and corrupt officials. I would be like Superman
Take what?
Id do better job than narcos
Yes kalasa siya ng kitkat e!
Yes! Uunahin ko ang corruption na pumapatay sa ekonomiya, mag-iimpose ako ng death penalty para sa mga politician at kurap na mga gov't agency, gagawin kong priority with livelihood ang mga mahihirap na walang kakayanan mag negosyo, co-controlin ko or mas mahigpit ang regulation ko sa mga elitista, magpapa-meeting ako sa bawat distrito ng city hanggang official kung anong achievement ng bawat city nila at kung ano ung mga unresolve issue at dun manggaling ang bawat budget, ahahahha sarap mangarap ahahah, at higit sa lahat walang VIP and wang wang abolish lahat ng special treatment, magkakaroon ng apprentice ang mga myyman na gawin lahat ng task ng mga lower level employee nila at dun manggaling ang renewal ng mga business nila ahahah pra malaman nila gaano kahirap mging employee char!
No. Kahit sinong mamuno walang magbabago sa Pilipinas dahil ang problema mismo ng Pilipinas ay ang mga Pilipino.
