      Kaya nga. Ang babaw di ba?! Buti na lang napansin ng isang public personality at napaalam sa madla. Nagsimula iyang red carpet eklabu na iyan ng nagasawa ng artista ang mga politiko. Nakakasuka na sa gown finofocus at hindi sa mga nagawa ng mga politiko na ito ang ginagawang topic

      Diyos ko ikumpara mo ba ang Oscars sa SONA? E ang Oscars event talaga ng mga artista kaya talagang entertainment event siya, pagandahan at pabonggahan ng mga artista. E ang SONA is a government event, fashion should really have no place there pero for some reason naging staple na at isa pa sa inaabangan ng mga tao.

      Di ko rin makuha why everyone has to be there. Even yung mga walang K pumupunta lang for the red carpet event just to be seen. But can they not just make a live national broadcast tutal wala namang ibang magsasalita kung hindi yung Pangulo lang? I find this pageantry unnecessary and even an insult sa mga mamamayan natin na lugmok sa kahirapan.

      Exactly. Even here in Canada, pag may mga special political events, yung mga politicians alike, all wear professional suits with choice and tasteful accessories. Ni hindi nga namin masyadong nasisilayan na magpabongga yung First Lady dito. Nagbibihis lang talaga sila ng gowns if the occasion really calls for it. Sa atin kasi, inuuna yung payabangan.

Minsan minsan wala masama mag post ng achievements ng mga partners nyo. State of the Nation Address naginf State of the Fashion Address. Onli in da Pilipins. Nakikita tuloy ang disparity ng mayaman sa mahihirap. Kung pera nila wala masama bumili ng mga designer gowns pero sa dami ng naghihirap sa Pinas sa tingin ba nila don pa mag focus mga kababayan natin kung ano suot nila.

    Mas madali kasi pag-usapan ng karaniwang tao ang suot ng mga pulitiko kesa sa usapang panlipunan. Isa pa, celebrity at showbiz-centric kasi ang mga Pinoy kaya may ganyang mga arte-arte ang media para bumenta sila. Sa huli, negosyo lang yan at kawalang-alam sa usapang politikal at ekonomikal.

      Even if you're right na, negosyo lang ito still, it doesn't make it morally right and just. As politicians they should know better than to rub it in the faces of people na mas nakakariwasa sila. Parang akong nahihiya, lalu na dun sa mga spouses na artista. Si Assunta nga, nagtataka ako. She always attends pero yung asawa, number one absentee.

    Kasi yung SONA per se is boring sa karamihan kaya finofocus din yung fashion just to make it exciting. Just like horse races dito sa UK, focused din on the fashion ng mga spectators just to make it more exciting. Lea should know about it since she lived in the UK for some time.

Ang halaga ng serbisyong publiko ay nasa 'isip at puso'. Kung anong nais at ibig ipakahulugan ng pagtulong ay malayo sa kailangang ipakita sa kung ano ang kaya mong isuot at ipagmalaki sa iba... Simpleng tao nga nakakatulong sa kapwa at may buong pusong pakikisama.... Another 'Hay Buhay Nga Naman' episode sa Pilipinas... Thanks Lea.
