SONA 2018

President Rodrigo Duterte delivered his State of the Nation Address or SONA on July 23, 2018 at Batasan Pambansa in Quezon City. He talked about War on Drugs, Human Rights, War Against Corruption, Bangsamoro Organic Law, War on Terror, Foreign Relation, West Philippine Sea, Migrant workers, Coconut Farmers, Trust Fund, Third Telecom Players, Boracay Rehabilitation, National Land Use Act, Disaster Preparedness, Responsible Mining, Tax Reform Law, Food Security, Universal Healthcare Bill, Charter Change, completely. His words of wisdom captured the hearts of many Filipinos. 

Honestly, this is my first time to watch President's SONA and yet he impressed me so much that I could imitate his words, but not really. Yes, he captured my heart. When he said that he cares about human lives, I felt like I was protected. And yes I am protected, we are protected. He even said that he is concerned about the present and future. What really captured my heart is that he said that he will not allow the crimes to destroy the succeeding generations. This captured my heart because we, students are the succeeding generations. He said that he will not allow crimes to destroy the future. "Not during my turn" he said.

He truly is a father. He was made to inspire us. He knows the problems, our problems, and he knows how to solve it. We just wait. I hope all his plans for this country will be implemented.
