The Baranggay and SK Elections 2007 in the Philippines

The Philippine Real Estate Agent Halts for Barangay and SK Elections 2007


The Philippine real estate agent in me (Sam Casuncad) pauses for a while to bring a little update about the latest happenings about the finished Barangay and SK Election 2007.
Today, the nation of the Philippines took another step towards politicizing the people, especially the youth with matters of politics and local govenance through the Barangay and SK Elections 2007. According to the news, the turnout is overall, a peaceful one as the youth and the local Barangay officials take a turn in exercising their voting rights and the right to be heard using their own small way of voting in the Barangay and SK Election 2007.

Untoward Incidents in the Election Process


There were some untoward incidents like in particular the Sulu province where our fellow brother Muslims especially in the still existent warring clan areas succeeded in making the COMELEC declare a failure of elections in some provinces only due to reported violence. Although these were still unconfirmed reports, the media is trying hard to deliver to the people tonight about the latest and the true happenings this day regarding the Barangay and SK Elections 2007. There were also reports of misconducts of some Barangay officials who are in to bribing the voters to get their sympathy and there were also some incidents of missing names in the COMELEC voter's list even if some of the people already saw the available online list that they were included in the draft list from the official website of the COMELEC.

The Youth Played a Major Key to The Elections


As for the youth, we all should really congratulate them today because it turned out that the elections this day is a success overall in terms of peace and political knowhow of the new generation. This is a sign indeed that the youth are going to go all out support to their line of new breed of best people in the political arena today. This is also a good sign as the politicizing of the youth will mean a lot in the future political endeavors of the Philippines and the whole population of the youth and the new generation of intelligent politicians of the future government.
