2nd STATE OF the NATION ADDRESS (2023) OF PRESIDENT FERDINAND
(BONGBONG) R. MARCOS, JR.
During his presidency, President Ferdinand Marcos, Jr. made
important contributions to Philippine history with his 8-Point Agenda and State of the Nation Address (SONA). It is crucial for a responsible citizen to critically consider these measures in order to understand how they will affect the country and society. With this paper, I will be evaluating President Marcos' 8-Point Agenda and SONA last July 24, 2023, looking at both their advantages and the problems of his regime.
During his SONA, he mentioned most of the points that made me
ponder his goals and initiative for the development of the country and its effect in the society presently and to the future. As a government employee under Department Health, Covid 19 pandemic had been a crisis that brought intense effect to the lives of the Filipino, not only to the health workers but especially to the community. When President Marcos mentioned his goal for achieving Universal Healthcare services, it brought me hope for a better future in our healthcare system, since our visions here in the facility aligns with his, it is good to hear that the pandemic although provided negativity, it did serve its purpose as a wake- up call to the government. With that kind of mindset from a leader, I suppose this country really will have a good change, a progress, and services that it deserves.
In conclusion, President Marcos' 8-Point Agenda and State of
the Nation Address reflected the government's aspirations to address various aspects of Philippine society. As a citizen, we can collectively strive to build a more inclusive, democratic, and just society. It is essential to uphold the principles of transparency, accountability, and respect for human rights to ensure that the mistakes of the past are not repeated, and the Philippines can move forward towards a brighter future.
