People, therefore, have awareness. Newspapers, radio and TV belong to the people. During the rule of Marcos and Estrada, people knew what the latter were doing. In Pakistan, we could know the deeds of Yahya Khan through the Hamoodur Rehman report which was declassified after 30 years of his ouster. The virtues of BB and Nawaz Sharif could also be known only when they were ousted.
Awareness gives birth to people's power.
In this respect, the Philippines have an edge over the Americans in that they don't have super power status. Estrada had his people's mandate, not a mandate from the army, and people could conveniently remove him, when he lost his popularity because of corrupt practices. Even after 21 years of its launching, KEPZ is still striving hard to survive mainly because of improper planning and unpractical procedures etc. This exercise takes too much of time thus causing delay and hardship to KEPZ investors in supplying their goods on time. Tax collection booth should be set up at KEPZ without further delay.
