President Ninoy Aquino III delivered his 2012 Christmas message to the Filipinos on December 21, 2012. We dissected his message to check if all ideas are appropriate or not. Our comments below are italicized.
Kilala tayong mga Pilipino sa pagkakaroon ng pinakamahabang pagdiriwang ng Kapaskuhan. Setyembre pa lang, nasasabik na ang lahat dahil sa mga aguinaldong kanilang tatanggapin, gayundin sa pagsasama-sama ng buong pamilya habang pinagsasaluhan ang Noche Buena. Subalit hindi maikakahon sa mga regalo, sa mararangyang salu-salo, o sa mga makukulay na palamuti ang tunay na diwa ng Pasko. (I like the last sentece/clauses. It's a good message to those people who thinks that Christmas is all about gifts and shopping. It is a reminder that Christmas is not all about the concept of consumerism. I hope everyone should also realize that there people who can't afford to buy anything at all. There are so many Filipinos who do not have anything to prepare on their table this Christmas. Try to read the article " A meaningless Christmas".)
