Message to Zambalenos

It is indeed a reality that the Magsaysays will do anything to perpetuate themselves in power. They know and feel that the people have grown tired of them not only because of the length of years they are in office, but because of the recognition and awareness that our beloved province have gon! e from better to worse. The people are angry but feel helpless. They need someone to lead them.

It is a fact in our province that there is a proliferation of illegal drugs which are speedily corrupting our youths. Zambales has been in news black out for the past nine years. Unbeknownst to most of us here in the forum, there were innumerable senseless killings in the municipalities of Palauig, San Felipe, Botolan, Candelaria, Subic, and Iba to which my friend's brother even fell victim to. One way or another, they were drug related. The pepetrators were never found and not put to justice. There have also been growing abuses of young women which truly bleeds my heart. If the Magsaysays have no hand to all of these, what have they done to prevent or put a stop to all of these? Further, farm lands which are valuable to our marginal farmers as their only source of livi! ng, were being taken by force. The people of Iba, San Felipe, San Narciso, San Antonio and Subic will attest to this. The Magsaysays cannot deny that all these all occured during their reign.

The Magsaysays do care about the people. They never cared about Zambales. They only care about themselves. They want control of everything, even every aspect of businesses legal and/or illegal. They want the people to remain impoverished so they can titilate them with the glitter of gold and easily scare them.

What has happened to us? What has happened to Zambales?

We have to stand behind a viable candidate as our instrument to remove the Magsaysays. The decision is with us. Let set aside the politics of patronage for once and think about our youths, our young women, and save our beloved province from further degradation.

Bias as it may seem, but we have to support Amor Deloso. My father was taken out of retirement to run again for Governor because the people believe that he can muster enough support to put an end to the reign of the Magsaysays. Most of you know him that he is a man of proven integrity. He never waivered in his position. He aims of developing our young people so they can grow(just as he did), even from a humble origin, and someday they too will be able to serve the province and create their own place under the sun. He wants businesses to grow in order to assure employment for the people, and alleviate them from poverty. Education is also foremost in his list and many more.

Most of you may have heard by now that Ruben Torres's (my uncle's)is also running. Let truth be told that he only planned of running last week. It was a last minute decision. He knows that he did not prepare for this fight and knows that he has very slim chance of ! winning. He has no set up machinery. So why did he run? That is a question that I've been musing for the last few days. It is clear that the Magsaysay's intention is to split the votes. It is just so sad to see if he is playing a part in that ploy.

Please understand that all is not yet lost. Do not give up the fight easily. It is just starting. I firmly believe that we have to be united and must act as one. We have to trust our strength and our perseverance will move us to victory.

As I said when I was running against Vic Magsaysay last election for governor, "Ang masasama ay magwawagi kung and mga mabubuti ay pupunta lamang sa isang tabi at masasawalang kibo!!! Panahon na upang alisin natin ang piring sa ating mga mata, alisin ang takot sa atin isipan, at lagutin natin ang tanikila ng ating kahirapan!!!"

It is time to make a stand against the Magsaysays! It is time to fight! It is time to redeem! Zambales and find a definite future for all Zambalenos alike.

This I humbly submit to all my fellow Zambalenos.

Blessed be!
