National Election 2010 is over and congratulations to the new elected president of the Philippines, NoyNoy Aquino. Republic of the Philippines is a democratic country and headed by the Elected President, then the vice president and senators. Populations stands at 96 million base on census as of 2009. It is over populated specially at Luzon area. The means of living are mainly farming (rice, corn, sugarcane, pineapple), and some traditional business like selling fruits and vegetables. Filipinos are trying to land a job abroad due to the fact that wages/salary are very minimal. Now, that we have the new leader, i am hopeful that the leaders of today will implement what they have promised to the filipinos especially on the lots of job offerings the very soon.
