FREEDOM AND CONSCIENCE

Christina Balagot JH 

From the recent APEC hosted in our country, I learned that the world has many different groups and unions to ensure peace and development. The recent event hosted in our country just proved how involved our country. It also show how much our country wants to help and progress further in its economy. Its significance is to unite all the countries that surround the Pacific. I think it shows just how a lot of the countries are trying to help each other to develop into a better country. I think the issues and challenges our country is facing is mostly poverty and pollution. These are all relevant to me because as a Filipino citizen, I see people living on the streets and begging for alms. I also see how our country isn't as clean as it used to be. Whenever I go to Manila, I see smog in the sky from the different types of pollution. This is because us Filipinos do not take care of the environment the way God left us in charge to do. These issues can progress into on APEC CHALLENGES, VIS-A-VIS; FREEDOM AND CONSCIENCE (Term 2)
