Subject: Understanding Culture, Society and Politics.

Politics
Politics are the activities associated with the governance of a country or
area and also the practices of governance. As a senior high student, I must
know the system of politics. In that way I know whats going on the country and
whats wrong in the government. And how to be a leader in your community,
classroom and inside your home.

Understanding our political system is very important as a citizen of

the Philippines and every citizen should be involved with the political activities
occurring in the country. Politics doesn’t only focus on government system but
also the government inside the house. Political Science studies the theory and
the practices of government, politics at the local, state, national, and
international levels. Political theory focuses on human nature and the moral
purposes of political association. Because humans are political animal which is
human’s life is full of rules and governance.

Politics has different forms of government, Republic, Democracy,

Communism and Dictatorship. The Philippines uses two forms of government,
Democratic – Republic. The government of the Philippines is made up of three
independent branches. The executive the power is in the president, the
legislative; the congress which is the senate and the house of representative,
and the judicial; the supreme court. Every branches have their roles in the
government system.

Political system can be change when a new leader makes some

changes, it is normal function of internal and external politics. When a new
power comes then new authority served. But too much power can lead to abuse
of power and inequality, this is why everything has limitation in the life of
humans.

To resolve the problems of the country is to focus on the real problem

and set aside the rivalry opponents, for example Duterte and Trillanes. Both of
them are educated men and they want to achieve peace but their perspectives
and ideology are different. They want the same thing is to serve the Philippines.

The real problem in the Philippines is the society, because when a

society helps each other theres a possibility that will lessen the problem. And
also every Filipinos wants to be a leader.
