Walk the talk

Political leaders should lead by example. That is if they really value leadership more than politics, more than being politicians.

During the election campaign, promises of the political candidates are always heard. But were all of those promises realized?

Most of the time, not. There are some if not few. Indeed, there are only few true, sincere leaders in the government.

To our fellow citizens who will cast their votes this coming October 30 elections, ask, check, evaluate or investigate what our political leaders have done.

We should investigate before we use our pen to jot down our future next leaders in the next two or more years term.

Our political leaders, most of them, are quite good public speakers. Public speakers in the way that they can hook the voting public through their poetic words.

Every time we hear them, their words are like could resurrect the dead. But did they practice what they preach particularly against their political rivals?

Let us always be watchful over their promises. Let us not be deceived by those liars. And pick only those true to their interests and intentions.

Moreover, let us choose those who have already ‘walked the talk’ or those who have the capacity to govern us effectively, fairly and progressively.

That is only if we will be wise enough from the wrongdoings and failures of the administrations we have once supported. (Wilson Auguis Subrio)
