Have you ever wondered what's happening in our society nowadays? Can you see the big difference between the past to the present? Are we influenced or we are connive to let it happen? About the said topic, I will discuss the endless discussion regarding societal dilemmas. I will focus my topic on my country to deliver my full reaction.

I will start it with a question, is it the government's fault or it's people? Here in my country, poverty corruption, inflation, societal problems, etc. is what the country's facing. It's been a dilemma for decades that isn't solved no matter the actions taken. From poverty which existed due to countless slop actions, crimes that never ended due to loose punishment, and many more. That's it is right to blame the government for all this happening. If we only had a strong leader, can we solve all these issues?

Truly, a good leader makes society better, strong leadership can guide its people towards success however what about its people? it isn't required that people should follow the leader to create harmony? It's a sad reality that people only depend on the government, which makes me annoyed and hate society.

There's a "Bahala Na" mentality in which people don't care about society as long as they benefit from it, they never participate but criticize the government once there's an issue. People often complain about their hardships like struggling financially due to low salaries, high cost of living, high inflation, and even small things that people blame on the government.

I am not on side of the government I am disappointed by the type of governance due to endless corruption and issues, in fact in past decades my country faced a lot of struggles that until now doesn't solve. But we can't avoid the fact that it was also people's mistake. people prefer to rally and criticize the government rather than create a solution to solve issues.

Watching television no more gives entertainment but a lot of headaches, from corruption, global issues, inflation, criticism, and many more, I hope I no longer exist in this world if only those things I witness.

What I see to solve all those issues is to create harmony and unity, government and its people should unite to solve problems little by little, for a single day everyone should stop hate, and criticism and just do everything to create and implement solutions.

However, in reality, it's very far to happen right now due to pride and ego, but I believe that once everything fails, everyone will unite, it's just a matter of time that makes people realize that the country is on verge of collapse.
