1. THE NEED OF CHANGE IN MINDORO

Mindoro Need a change because its people are living in an inhuman condition (personal approximated interpolation of 43% poor or cant send a child to college, and 30% at extreme poverty or cant send children to elementary and high school, houses at ground and or single room, easily burned grass roofing and walls, no access to safe water & just die in sickness without a Doctor. The prime agriculture and fisheries industries are labor saturated and the people don’t have alternative livelihood. Although there is a potential in tourism but the same is seasonal, needs infrastructure, and invites prostitution which will damn more our women and destroy the sacredness of life.

For 48 years in life I am now asking, why the Mindoro Leaders and Catholic Church had done nothing for that time length to move the Mindoro population from inhuman to human way of living? To our Local Governments what have you done? Where did our taxes go? We give our sweat and blood as your internal revenue allotment (IRA) but why you spent the same unproductively even wasted it to your interest and vices? To our Catholic churches and other religious sects, where did our tithes go? You should had done moral education to the political leaders but what happened, your favored leaders loath the taxes of people and spend to non sacred things. Our sweat and blood will take vengeance in the right time and God will do it for us.

To the local governments, authorities, congressman of Mindoro will you try mirror with Surigao City and Surigao del Norte? This ones one of the poorest province 20 years ago is now moving. Remember Surigao is a province located at the typhoon built of the Philippines yet they managed to surface from the ravages and wrecks of annual typhoons: they created jobs and alternative livelihood even invited technical people, investors, and developers enhancing their local economy.

To the Catholic Church of Mindoro, will you try to mirror with the Church run St Paul University (previously San Nicolas College) in Surigao City offering course in mining engineering and other knowledge and career fields important in the industrialization and food security? My church in Surigao City took the vision to lead in the moral role in responsible and sustainable development of Surigao. The Catholic Church of Surigao understood better the statement of Pope John Paul II than any others:
Development is a process of change from an inhuman to a human condition where democracy is upheld and people live with dignity and in co-existence with nature.
(Pope John Paul II)

Church of Mindoro, stop making lies and take your reproof. We can be together and make initiatives program/plans for Mindoro.


2. WHEN WILL YOU CHANGE MINDORO? ACE YOU MUST DO.

The general populace shall do their initiative since the Philippine Constitution and Laws provided freedom and system to initiate and direct sector development. The People’s Initiative is provided in the Local Code. Removing/recalling non productive and economic saboteur officials is even provided in the local code. You just move in mass and in one, write your vision, mission, goal program and plans, and then the COMELEC will sit down for you.

3. ALYANSA LAAN SA KAUNLARAN AT KALIKASAN, LABAN SA KAHIRAPAN (ALAS-KA)

The initial move of the ACES of Mindoro: ALAS-KA Mindoreno - April 22, 28 and 29, 2010, are the historic dates of the ALAS-KA. Its vision is A Mindoro full of opportunities sustaining change and development.

Sumisibol na ang mga nagkakaisang lider, papalitan na nila ang nakakahiya, nagpapayamang mga pangulo. Tutuldukan na nila ang kahirapan sa Mindoro. ALAS-KA Mindoreno. Silay magpapaplano, gagawa ng programa at proyekto dadag kabuhayan sa lahat ng Mindoreno.

Pola and Socorro May also hold their events soon.

The ALAS-KA in the coming days will take their Strategic Planning Workshop. They will analyze the causes and effects of their poverty that throughout the 48 years had spiraled down and droved them to extreme poverty forcing their children to work in Manila as slaves, causing many infant and young children deaths because they had never attended by a physician not even tasted a medicine because of lack of means.

The ALAS-KA will need to capacitate their selves, be recognized by law as corporate entity (SEC to Cooperative), make plans, program and project to create livelihood, generate wealth, expand economic activities and services and provide more employment. They need to know local wealth creation, they very key of full development and independence in governance.

The writer is asking all knowledge holders and philanthropists, please guide help the Mindorenos and the ALAS-KA in the change they dreamed.
