So, do you care enough to help, or do you just desire the ecstasy of making disparaging remarks, weasel-like in the comfort of your own room/home/local internet café?

Not so funny anymore, ey?

Balls on your court. Its put up or shut up time.

Whatcha gonna do?

Speak now or forever hold your peace. (just in case you don't know what that means, it is equivalent to the very warm, "Fuck Off," one of you clowns tenderly threw my way).

[pochnikiso]

If yes, then post it here so that others will have an idea of how they can help.

If not, then get off that fence and do something to help.

But if after reading this, you still choose to make an ass of yourself, then by all mean, knock yourself out so you may be a warning to the youth of today, and a specimen to the ugly data that represents the ugly state of our education system.

[pochnikiso]

Any help will be most welcome.

This is imperative because in these trying times, we need serious,s hard-working people, whether they finished HS or not, to help. The problem is too complex for a few to solve. The students, the teachers, the schools will greatly benefit no matter how small our contributions are.

One who pays his taxes religiously is the only one who has the moral right to complain. Have you done anything to help out? If yes, then post it here so that others...

same terrible state of our school system I am blasting.

If you cared to read the video description, and if you can read the actual text and not read between the lines making obvious your biases, the video does not in any way claim that people who do not finish HS are assured of doom.

Do yourselves a favor and read the description carefully. If there are words that you do not understand, have a Webster nearby so you may consult it.

To the Hecklers and Non-Believers:

I understand your concern, because that's exactly how i felt when i saw the study this video was based on. But you know, i adhere to honest marketing, and i will refuse to sugarcoat the truth just so the world will think we're better.

Thanks for proving my point. I don't mean to insult you or demean you, but it seems, judging from some of your posts, with all of their subject-verb disagreements and grammatical errors, you probably are victims of the...

Oh I wish there would be more hits in this degrading video of our country, reality thugh, but still degrading. Try uplifting our image a bit, for crying out loud.

If you bothere to read the description of the video, it's aim is not to demean our students, our public school teachers, but rather our public school system. Rather than rely on government, the private sector has banded together to do something...

The Philippine government should force education.

[leehavis1]

Education and poverty are linked.  It's complex problem and solutions are still available.

[anjojune]

its the same thing in other countries standard of education is going down very pronounced in developing countries with high pop growth rates..

Kung may kapitbahay po kayong kailangan ng tulong, isurprise niyo po sila ng allowance every month o kahit schools supplies. Maliliit na bagay pero kapag marami po ang gagawa lalaki na rin un....

Ayun lang! May pag-asa pa tayong mga Filipinos! Hanggat may mga katulad ni Poch at ng mga nagcomment dito na nagmamalasakit sa kapuwa, kaya pa nating maging matatag na bansa ulit... ww. msmcancino.blogspot.com

sa allowance ng mga nag-aaral sa college. Kahit po may mga scholarship foundations sa Phil lalo na ang mga cities, hindi pa rin maikakaila na ang nagiging hadlang sa pagtatapos ay ang araw-araw na pamasahe... kaya po doon kami nakafocus - gasolina ng mga bata sa araw-araw.

Iniencourage ko po kayo na tumulong din sa kapuwa kahit sa pagbibigay sa kanila ng Php100 per month o mas malaki pa. Time na po para makita rin natin ang mga kapuwa natin lalo na ung nangangailangan ng tulong natin.

Hello sa lahat! Ako po si Shel, isa sa mga founders ng Scholarship Org sa Pinas. Actually, ung org nga namin hindi registered kasi wala naman kaming pera pamparegistro at sobrang liit lang namin.

Hindi ako nagpopost dito para iinvite kayong magdonate sa group namin. Nagpopost ako rito para po sabihan lang kayo na kahit simpleng mamamayan lang tayo we can still help others. Kagaya po ng ginagawa namin sa ngayon, iyong mga sobra ng mga kaibigan, pinagsasama-sama namin para makatulong

[cielahcute]

Check niyo po 'tong mga links... ung mga hindi po pabor, just disregard...

Hindi natin kailangang maging extraordinary person para makatulong sa kapuwa natin...
