tnx guys!! Passion and discipleship is the key for this nation. now I've realized I also have a passion for OUR nation.. dugong maharlika tayo!! efren is a winner and now going to be a CONQUEROR!! ;) God bless you more..
Mabuhay! God Bless you, Efren for your great work. I hope you will awaken the rest of the Filipinos to do their part in educating the young,especially the government.What is Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo doing???She has all the means and the power to do something for the poor but she is not doing anything at all. She and the rest of her cronies are just too busy making themselves rich.Time to change the leaders of the government.Wake UP!!! Vote wisely come election time.
Congratulations po Sir Efren! Truly you are an inspiration to all of us. God Bless you and your whole group members. Sana tulad mo mabigyan din ako ng chance na makatulong. Pangarap ko nga rin sana na sumali sa group ninyo.
God bless you efren God gave you a gift to do that ministry of teaching hindi basta basta yang naka atang sa balikat mo darating ang panahon na ang blessing ay lalong maguumapaw sayu nag sismula na nga ang blessing sayu sana marami pang tulad mo ang magbahagi ng ganyang asal.mabuhay ka
Sana sa bagay na to magising ang mga politiko sa isang mensahe sa katauhan ni efren like instead na mangorakot gumawa nila paraan para maging maunlad ang ating bansa..
He best said it during his acceptance speech- "YOU ARE THE CHANGE THAT YOU DREAM, AS I AM THE CHANGE THAT I DREAM; AND COLLECTIVELY, WE ARE THE CHANGE THAT THIS WORLD NEEDS TO BE."
That gave me gooooosebumps, and made me teary-eyed. It reminds me of my own trials, and reminds me to continue to do good - and better.
MABUHAY ka EFREN!!! GOD BLESS YOU!! better yet, GOD blessed the children you help through YOU!!
AND it takes individuals like Efren to want to yank himself out of that hole so that his future children would have it BETTER than he's had...I think that's every good parent's dream... and THAT IS STARTING FROM WITHIN... and when Efren was in a better place, he reached out to help the kids find a better path for themselves so they can be where he's at as well. He chose not to just better himself, but to SERVE others above himself. AND SERVED WELL, he did!
I agree that overpopulation is the root cause of poverty..... lack of education about effective population control...which can be linked to our poor government system. It's sad, but it's true.
But should the children suffer this ill-fated destiny? Do they have a choice NOT to be born into this situation? Should they pay the price for their parents' same misfortune of being poor? We shouldn't condemn the innocent, the cycle just needs to be broken.
Efren and company, I salute you! I think you and the rest of your fellow volunteers knew you guys were heroes even before you received CNN's honor! It was just then made known to the rest of the world!
It's a time to rejoice and to be glad for our fellowmen... but i can't help but to feel sorry for some people who just don't get the meaning of "STARTING CHANGE FROM WITHIN." Instead of leaving negative comments, we can think of PROACTIVE ways to make a difference.
I am a Fil. working abroad, If will go back home to help my fellow Filipinos, It would surely be to educate Filipinos about family planning. Our country is very small to have an 88 million people, 12th most populated country in the world!
i am also a filipino teacher here in thailand teaching mathematics in one of the government schools english programs.... i salute you efren for a job well done! and for you to be noticed all around the world as the CNN HERO 2009 is just a bonus... i know you don't expect these recognitions but you deserve it together with all your volunteers... i'm proud to say that i voted for you as many as i could and how i wish i could someday meet you in person and teach my own people too...
Mas malaki nga impact nagagawa ng guro na ito ..kays icombine kayon lahat na puros salita lang.....pag-aralan nio ang ginawa ni at tULARAN nio para nman UMANGAT-angat ang bnsa niong matagal g luugmok at kuuleelat..
What an imbecille who would put NEGATIVE points to my comments..tulad ng cnabi ko....serves u right!!!BAGAY sa inyo ang gaanyan!!!MATAGAL ng 3rd world at absura....tama ang cnasabi ko dahil mas malayo ang AGWAT ng utaak ko sa inyo.........HOPELESS kayo..
Isang ehemplo ay ng SUMULAT ng batas para MKONTROLL ang populasyon na cnulat ni Lagman...ANO ang NANYARI????HIndi ba dahil sa tako na takot ang gobyernong INUTILE sa simbahang katoliko..kay HINDI PUMASA????sa tingin ko..BAGAY sa Pinas ang KULELAT at LUGMOK ..ksi NASA HARAP na ang PROBLEMA..pero wala paring UTAK at BAYAG ang mag penoys lalo na ang LIDERATO na masolusyunan ito..bagay sa inyo yan...MABUHAY ang LUGMOK at KULEELAT na pilipians!!!
Papaano ang gOBYERNO ng Pinas--HINDI kontrollin ang populasyon lalo na ng mga mANGMANG yan ang SANHI ng mga SLUMS,SQUATTER areas at mga nagkalata na basura..Hangga't marami sa mga penoys ang MANGMANG at MABIBILIS mag-anak..HWAG kayo UMASA na UUNLAD ang pinas...CYCLE lang yan na paulit-ulit--wth geometrical proportions, compounding every year.Dyan nagsisimula ang mga GANGS, at paglaki ng mga yan..kundi mga magiging mga KATULONGS,mga kriminal.etc.Sana matuto an pinoys ABOUT RACIAL HYGIENE!!
Kung kayong mga bawat pilipino ay mAG-IISIP ng paraan para MABAWASAN ang KAMANGMANGAN ng mamamayan...marahil mabilis umunlad ang bnsa nio...isa sa mga paraaan para magawa ito ay maging EHEMPLO at TURUAN ang mga mangmang upang TUMAAS ang ANTAS ng knilang KAISIPAN,,ng sa gayon mABAWASAN ang mga SQUATTERS at BASURA sa bnsa..at ng sa gayon ay HINDI lang pag_AANAK ang knilang malalaman.
good advice.. umpisan mo kayang magisip ng paraan para cla maturuan instead magsalita ng magsalita. laganap ang mahihirap sa pinas.. m sure meron sa tabi tabi nyo.. good luck
This has been so inspirational. We are Filipinos here in the U.S trying to teach the American kids, somehow we feel guilty, but we also don't have a choice but to seize the opportunity. We are so inspired with how this organization works. We will try to work with our Filipino Groups and come up on ways how to help you back there. How can we reach you, Efren? You can give us your email or telephone number. Continue making a difference, we will pray for your success.
nasa inyo pa rin ang pag-asa ng ating bansa, sa inyong mga sakripisyo at pagtulong na maturuan ang mga batang kapus palad . kayo ang mga bayani ng ating bansa at me dangal na dapat tularan. Tulad ng karamihan dito Saludo Kami sa Inyo..at nawa'y patnubayan kayo ng Poong may kapal at maging ligtas lagi sa anumang kapahamakan. Maraming Salamat Kayo ang mga Tunay na Pilipino..na Ipinagmamalaki namin sa Buong Mundo.
Hindi ko maiwasang malungkot sa sitwasyon ng nakararami! hindi ko rin maiwasang masiyahan dahil marami ang mga tao na kagaya ng grupo nyo na gumagawa ng sariling kilos na walang alinlangan sa sarili! mabuhay kayo!
IKAW ANG IDOL KO! :)
