Facebook page Juan Nationalist posted this debate-worthy question on their facebook page. It was only recently that the boom of TV’s hottest trending couple Aldub made twitter history:ย Before midnight Saturday during the “Kidnapping” Episode of Kalyeserye, a new record of 6.37 million tweets around the #AldubTheAbduction series, reported by Philippine Star (.com)
It was also reported by Inquirer.net that “the โAldub Nation”ย created more than 39 million tweets as of midnight with the hashtag #ALDubEBTamangPanahon, thrashing the 35.6 million register of 2014 Fifa World Cup semi-final match between Germany and Brazil.”
#Aldub has officially taken the Philippines by storm and united millions.
Thus the question of Juan Nationalist’s post: If Filipinos can unite to trend #aldub and impress the whole world, how come filipinos can’t unite to solve national issues and save their country from further embarassment?”
JN reiterated that they are not against the love team with a comment on their facebook post saying “I am no Aldub hater nor I would degrade them for their accomplishments(I personally wish them the best) but Im just stating what I’m seeing before my naked eyes…and it really pains my heart what our country has become.”
What do you think? What is your answer to their question?ย
Because most Filipinos love entertainment so that they would be able to forget their problems…yung good vibes lng, happy lang…pero sa gusto nila maaliw, nakakalimutan nila na at the end of the day, Philippines has poverty, corruption,education, election etc.issues..even on national news, showbiz news are given more airtime than other national issues..
we don’t tweet to impress the world..it’s becoz gusto lang namin ang aldub..stress reliever namin ang aldub..
Because Filipinos are sick and tired of the system aminin natin kahit naman anong sigaw ng mga Pilipino ngaun ndi naman nakikinig ang pamahalaan. Napagod lng saka iba ang national issue sa entertainment.. Entertainment like AlDub Love team makes them happy, it makes them escape the reality for a bit of fantasy… Nothing wrong about it…
Wala e, mas mahalaga pa ang lovelife ng dalawang tao kesa sa inang bayan :(. Kakaawa nga, karamihan sa mga bata ngayon tungkol sa Aldub pero pagdating sa mga issue, tulad ng patuloy na pagpatay sa mga Lumad, wala silang kaalam alam, tarages, di nga nila alam kung anung yung Lumad e. Mas masaklap pa niyan, sinasabi ng tao, “kahit magrally tayo wala naman din mangyayari e”, eh bakit nung EDSA 1 at 2, napatanggal natin yung mga kurakot? Bakit nung EDSA kahit papano may nabago tayo? Nagawa na natin ang EDSA noon, di ba natin pwede gawin ngayon? Kailangan lang natin ilagay ang tamang tao sa tamang posisyon at tanggalin ang mga kurakot.
Siguro dahil kahit anong sigaw ng sambayan sa mga leaders ng bansa parang hindi naririnig ang hinaing ng mga nakakarami. Ako bilang Pilipino nawawalan ng gana mag effort specially sa mga issues ng bansa kasi ang daming epal, ang daming excuses. I continue to vote, pay taxes, help out pero minsan nakaka-walang gana. Paano natin matutulungan ang bansa kung ang majority ng leaders ng bansa natin ay mga walang guts to fight for the country and the people, they spend most of their time paying the debt they acquire in campaigning or when making a name for themselves.
The Eat Bulaga execs and writers used social media to listen to its viewers, then they come up with a solution that will make everyone happy, kaya siguro ganun a effect nila sa mga tao. Simple lang, it may not be the economy they are fixing, it’s a good example to follow.
