As I woke up this morning, a certain news on the television got
my attention. It was about the upcoming local barangay election. As early as now,
still a month to go for the said event, election related crimes starts to rise.
An aspiring barangay captain was harassed on his way to filling his certificate
of candidacy at the commission on elections. A group of men threw a black paint
on his car. It was then concluded that those group of men responsible of that
incident were relatives of his opponent on the upcoming election. This news was
only one of the many election related crimes I heard. Some were so disturbing,
they even try to kill their opponent. That brings a question to my mind, it is
just a local barangay election, but then the extent of their desire was so high.
I wonder what’s behind it that pushes them to do their utmost just to have the
position? I'll leave it to them this time. Anyway, as of now all I can do is to be vigilant
on their illegal activities.
