Voting’s done. Four days have gone by.  Comelec simply has to complete compilation of all the votes for each candidate. So what’s next?

I am waiting for all these gentlemen and gentlewomen who have persistently tried to woo our votes in the last 3 months to prove their leadership quality.

The first thing they can easily do is to instruct all their followers to start cleaning up our streets of the posters, streamers and other debris they collectively imposed on us.

We are glad that MMDA, Comelec and military personnel have taken the initiative to do the work, even though they estimate that the work will take no less than 2 weeks to complete.

Fact is, the y don’t have to do the job. But those who littered the streets should b responsible.

So, calling on the national and local candidates whose faces we still have to confront in our community of Barangay Bagong Pag-asa in Quezon City: Mike Defensor, Fermin Bitudio Bilaos, Herbert Bautista and Joy Belmonte.

The scene above was taken at the corner of Road 3 and Road 2 near the Our Lady of Hope Parish Church and the exit road of SM North EDSA into Brgy. Bagong Pagasa.

But when one plies the barangay’s main road, Road 8. one is confronted with the giant banderitas with the names and faces of Abe Abesamis criss-crossing the road, and more of the other candidates’ campaign materials.

What we noticed though is that the posters of Vivian Tan who ran for Councilor in District 1 have all been stripped clean off the posters, road barriers and walls that we had taken pictures of during the campaign period. Thank you for being a responsible leader Ms. Tan.
