Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to a whole new administration! Looking forward to seeing and experiencing the 'change' we've all been clamouring for. Good luck and God bless you, Mr. President!
Here are some of my favourite lines from his inaugural speech:
" My adherence to due process and the rule of law is uncompromising. "
" You mind your work and I will mind mine. "
" But the change, if it is to be permanent and significant, must start with us and in us. "
" The ride will be rough. But come and join me just the same. Together, shoulder to shoulder, let us take the first wobbly steps in this quest. "
" Do them and we will work together. Do not do them, we will part sooner than later. "
" Let me remind in the end of this talk, that I was elected to the presidency to serve the entire country. I was not elected to serve the interests of any one person or any group or any one class. I serve every one and not only one. That is why I have adapted as an article of faith, the following lines written by someone whose name I could no longer recall. He said:
'I have no friends to serve, I have no enemies to harm.' "
" Why am I here? The past tense was, I am here because I love my country and I love the people of the Philippines. I am here, why? Because I am ready to start my work for the nation. "
