Concert-forum to set patriotic hearts on fire
March 23, 2007 | 12:00am
Have the candidates you will be voting for come May 14 polls passed the LASER test?
L stands for Lifestyle. Do they have unexplained wealth?
What about Action? How will these candidates fight against corruption and remain persons of integrity?
S stands for Supporters. Are they close to corrupt individuals or drug lords? Election Conduct. Do they buy votes? Do their campaign funds come from drug money?
And then there's the test on Reputation. Have they themselves been involved in corruption and/or drug issues? Or are they druglords themselves?
Those aging 18 years old to 30 are called to serve as Shaburakot Busters. The mission of the S-Busters will be discussed tomorrow, March 24, in a concert-forum dubbed "Ayaw Ipalusot Kandidatong Shaburakot". This concert-forum is organized by the Dilaab Foundation, Inc.
The concert will take place at the Mabolo Parish Church parking lot at 8 p.m. Bisrock bands Assembly Language, Agipo, Aggressive Audio, Agadiers, Phylum, What's The Frequency?, Glass of Dirt, Fervent, Kabobo, Indephums, Mantequilla and Missing Filemon will rock our world with their new compositions on citizenship based on the book "12 Little Things" written by lawyer Alex Lacson.
"Many young people are disillusioned by our current political climate. Informal surveys show a significant number of young people not planning to vote. This disillusionment is understandable. Our current political culture is akin to a diploma mill - just about anyone can gain entry and even the most unfit graduate with honors," says Fr. Carmelo Diola on the lukewarm treatment the youth of today have given to politically related activities such as the elections. Fr. Diola is the overall coordinating steward of the Dilaab Movement which is a "volunteer-driven, Church-based movement for a transformed Filipino nation through heroic Christian citizenship."
"Ordinary citizens hold the key to raising the standards of our politics by voting. People need to vote. The sanctity of their votes needs to be protected. But they also need to vote wisely," Fr. Diola underlined.
"Ang amo gyung nationwide project is dubbed "Huwag Hayaang Lumusot Kandidatong Shaburakot." Sa atong pinulongan, "Ayaw Ipalusot Kandidatong Shaburakot." This raises questions focusing on candidates supported by drug money and those engaged in graft and corruption. Such candidates are considered anti-life," he said.
"Ilusad ugma pinaagi sa concert-variety show ang panawagan ngadto sa mga lumulopyo ning atong nasod nga nanag-edad 18 hangtod 30 nga mag-S Buster. Ang S-Buster mo-exercise sa iyang right to suffrage, meaning siya mobotar gyud, dili magbaligya sa iyang boto, ug mobotar lang sa mga kandidatong angayang ituboy. He or she also influences other voters and holds winning candidates accountable for their campaign words," Fr. Diola explains.
Other than a dozen Bisrock bands expected to set nationalistic hearts on fire tomorrow evening, dancers and other artists will also grace the concert-forum. "A multimedia presentation will show pre-recorded interviews with religious and other leaders. And that Atty. Alex Lacson, the author of 12 Little Things, will give a short talk. Mao kining usa ka dosenang pamaagi nga ang usa ka Pinoy makatabang sa paghapsay sa iyang nasod ang nahimong basehanan sa gitagik nga mga kanta ning maong mga Bisrock bands nga ilang ipalanog ugma alang sa pagduso sa responsible citizenship," Fr. Diola stressed.
Dilaab Movement vows that the event tomorrow evening will be "prayerful, patriotic, practical, pleasant and pulsating."
