Cliche but true

Two days before the 2013 elections, we have to make choices that will determine the future of our nation.

The electoral process in the country is never easy and that one vote we deem as our right may not even feel significant at all. But the coming elections is important because it serves as the groundwork for the 2016 presidential elections.

Meanwhile, the existence of political dynasties insinuate an oligarchical government.

Most candidates in the coming elections bear the familiar names of their forefathers and the political battle now has been a matter of political dynasties versus those against it. I hope we see beyond their names and look at the credentials. It will be unfair to cast off a candidate just because he is a scion of a well-known political family.

Vote according to your conscience.
