President Benigno “Noynoy” Aquino III delivered his second State of the Nation Address (SONA) speech live 4pm last July 25, 2011, from Batasang Pambansa Complex, Quezon City before the Congress. Thousands of spectators who attended his SONA and millions of Filipino people watching over their homes and abroad.
On the start of his speech, PNoy mentioned his previous vow during his inauguration, “Walang wang-wang sa ating administrasyon.” Apparently, President Noynoy Aquino refers “wang-wang” as graft and corruption, abuse of power, and other illegal activities of some government officials and even from the private sector. The president received applause from the audience but the loudest was when he announced the appointment of former Supreme Court Justice Conchita Carpio-Morales as the new Ombudsman. Meanwhile, PNoy thanked his cabinet members for all the support they have provided for the projects of the government agencies, as well as the Congress for approving the budget.
SONA is very important tool to the betterment of our country. I know that President Benigno Simeon Aquino will do his best for the progress of our society.
