    Although he is president, Benigno Aquino III does not view himself as a leader but as a servant of the nation. His policies are consistent with his serving attitude. His behavior indicates he is not above the law, but he is a follower of the law like everyone else (Burgonio, 2010). His characteristics of honesty, fairness, and humility further support that he has the integrity of a Servant Leader (Linden, 2008). The philosophies he has developed help to better serve the people. Many are happy with what he has accomplished, but some are upset with promises he has not followed through with (Manila Bulletin Publishing Corporation, 2010). With more time ahead to serve his term as president, the future of his leadership is unclear but looks bright.…

    Millions of Filipinos grieved when Jesse Robredo passed. For almost two decades, he served and led Naga with skill, compassion, and humility. One of the hardest things I ever had to do as President was to deliver the news to Leni, after the tragedy. Apart from grieving, I could not avoid blaming myself for what happened to Jesse. Maybe if I had not asked him to join my Cabinet, he would still be alive today. Maybe if he had remained in Naga, he would still be with us. Maybe there would still be a Jesse Robredo in public service today.…

    Change could not be done overnight either six years is not enough but even if the president is strangled by these truths he is still persistent to continue what he started; whoever people he might meet head-on in the process, whatever cost may it take.

We all know all the hardships that our country faced during the past year. Earthquakes, fires, landslides, deadly typhoons like Pablo and even deadlier rains such as Habagat. But despite all of this, the Philippines, is still a nation to be reckoned with.
