QUOTE
"I believe one of the reasons we have a failure of leadership in the Philippines is our leaders do not take the time to see how the majority of Filipinos live. These pseudo-leaders are so divorced from reality and lack real empathy that regardless of their educational background, abilities or even good intentions, they can never govern wisely. How can you lead when you don't even know the people you are leading?"
