On Filipino voters’ choice for senators – Doubtful if we ever matured

Elections and we all say that is the great moment of democracy in the Philippines. While I am writing this, the currentfrontrunners are actors Bong Revilla and Jinggoy Estrada. Also winning are Lito Lapid.

What happened to the other equally promising candidates like Risa Hontiveros or General Danilo Lim?

It should not surprise us that we hardly see good debates coming out of the Senate because the people we put there are just either doing nothing

But just taking a look at the winners that are about to be proclaimed especially the line-up of senators makes me wonder if Filipinos really ever matured as voters.

We miss the services of some candidates who should be more deserving of taking seats in the Senate but who did we choose?
