For the past weeks or so, we been hearing, watching and reading a lot of "Jun Lozada and the Senate". I salute the guy for being honest (now) and for having the guts to say things , sacrifices the safety of his own life (and his family). I knew Jun Lozada just like any ordinary Filipino who watches news on tv and reads newspaper, well the guy is the talk of the town but personally I know nothing of him. Well, the guy is a whistle- blower whom other Filipino consider as a hero. I am not a political analyst to analyze things that is happening in our country but I believed that any concerned individual should have something to say, we should speak up. I just hope that if we do, we should research and study the real situation first. I hope we can learn something from the past. As for me, I see things differently and I feel I should keep that on my own.
During my high school days, admittedly me and my classmates friends used do our naughtiness in our class. I remember one time when we are so busy with our own extra curricular activities and we forgot to study for the coming exam. The exam day came and we are not prepared. Then came this temptation in a form of leakage, we don't have any choice so my group ( with my four classmate friends) decided to pay for the leakage. We planned everything before the exam including the seating arrangement and how to pass around the leakage but unfortunately the examiner/ teacher decided to change our seating arrangement. Good thing, two of my friends seated near me. Unfortunately for the other two cause they were asked to seat away from us. At first the exam was going smoothly but before it was ended our teacher approached me and my two other friends. I was surprised when she confiscated our exam papers and asked us to bring our parents the following morning. Well, who do you think was the whistle blower? You're right, my two other friends who was asked to seat away from us and who didn't benefited from the leakage- although they had their own participation. Funny thing though, those whistle blower turned out to be a good example, a role model student and. I was surprised cause someone even taught they were a hero. It's not mine or my friends fault why it didn't turned out right, after all from the beginning it was never right at all. It' s not right to cheat, lie or steal- we in our natural state of mind knew that. I was just thinking what if- our seating arrangement was never change, everything runs smoothly as we planned and we nailed the exam with the help of the leakage, would there be any whistle blower? And would there be any role model amongst my friends? would there be any hero? Are they really a role model or plain bitter and sour graper? Referring to what's happening in our country nowadays- What if they nailed the ZTE- NBN deal? And they pocketed their own commissions and kickbacks? What if everything runs smoothly the way they plan it to be? Would there be any senate hearings, rallies and university tours?
I am happy and proud that there is someone like Jun Lozada who took all the consequences and even sacrifices his own family just to fight for the truth. I salute you sir! Although, I am still wandering if I can consider you a "whistle blower" or just plain "sour graper"?
