One fundamental factor in the sustained growth of a country is having a strong and purposive research and development (R&D) program. R&D plays an essential role in society’s advancement. It provides science-based knowledge for the development of new products, solutions and services. While it requires substantial investments and tremendous patience, the rewards are substantial. Unfortunately, R&D in the Philippines is relegated to the back burner in terms of government funding.
It is lamentable that the Philippines is among the “lowest spenders” for R&D. In 2017, the government set an initial funding of R21 billion for a program called Science for Change. It was estimated then that if R&D spending was doubled every year, the Philippines could have reached one percent of GDP, the amount prescribed by the UNESCO as the minimum investment for a country to be competitive.

While 15-year-olds in China blitz their peers in the West in math, reading and science, we are warping the minds of our children by indoctrinating them in an ideology that is Marxist in nature and teaches them that America is an oppressive regime of whiteness and anyone born with white skin needs to be punished, humiliated and marginalized.
Whether you call it critical race theory or just plain woke insanity, it is a recipe for social upheaval and mental illness, not success.
We are teaching white children to hate themselves. We are teaching nonwhite children that it’s OK to bully and torment white children because of the color of their skin.
