Six years ago, june 27, 2005, President Arroyo said, I am sorry over radio and television. That was during the time of the controversial hello Garci scandal. At that point her political rivals looked at her as evil. Many of her cabinet officials preferred to leave her. And they campaigned hard and suceeded in convincing many people to label her as the evil.
Is GMA really that bad? Many in the media said so. The present administration said so. They said she had caused our present predicament. They said she is a cheater in elections. She is corrupt, a plunderer, human rights violator and she over-taxed the already over-burdened Pinoys, etc, bla bla ad nauseam. There seemed to be no end to her alleged sins during her term as Chief Executive of her country. Up to this point in time it is still hard to determine whether GMA is absolutely wrong or absolute right. Every one knows she was once at the top, the highest official of the land, on top literally of all including her detractors, but it is the culture of all Pinoys to pull down those at the top, 'crab mentality'. And as the old saying goes 'No one stays at the top forever. ' One have to come down to her reality. GMA is now coming down and along the way down she is met by the people she had stepped on. This is why she is now in trouble.
But is GMA really bad?
