4th SONA of PNOY

           Every President have their SONA or State of the Nation Address every fourth Monday of July wherein the President states the happenings in his/her recent year of terminology publicly. Last July 22, 2013 our beloved President Benigno C. Aquino had his fourth SONA where he tackled the following public issues: the Pantawid Pamilya Project, Irrigation System, Sangguniang Kabataan, the Enhanced Basic Education Curriculum or the K-12 Education and others. SONA 2013 will also highlight different aspects of the nation - economy, jobs, asset reform, education, sports, government and ethics, health and environment, tourism, justice, urban poor, issues in Mindanao, foreign affairs and national security.
        

           In his SONA, "the SK Issue" captured my interest since I've belong to the youth bracket. The SK is a political organization composed of individuals within the age of 15-18 years old. The SK Chairman heads the group with its 8 "Kagawad". Moreover, their duties and responsibilities is to work on the barangay programs and projects- organizing of tasks on fiestas, garbage collection, tree planting and other stuffs that will contribute to the cleanliness and beauty of the barangay. In his SONA, Pnoy said he will cut now the SK because he said that the SK only teach us to be corrupt in the early age.
