To hold the office of president, one must meet several requirements.

A president has a
great deal of influence. As a result, they must have a good deal of information and are a
trustworthy choice. Whatever your feelings about a particular candidate or candidate, your vote
is an important one that determines who gets to write the laws that govern your nation. In the
following paragraphs, I'll go through some of the characteristics a president has to have to be
effective.

A characteristic that I think is crucial is that they have worked in the political arena
before. When it comes to politics, I believe that having or not having a political background
matter. They must have already made errors and are on the correct path rather than starting from
zero. For my life, I can't fathom why so many people would put their faith in someone with such
little or no expertise. All in all, past political engagement is a crucial characteristic for a
candidate to possess. Again, building trust with others is a key function of prior experience in
this role.

Speaking at the National Museum of Fine Arts in Manila during a presidential address by
President Ferdinand Marcos Junior, my vote for him was astonishing, and I was never
disappointed. Most notably when he said that no region of the nation would be overlooked.

President Marcos claim that he doesn't speak much, he promises to keep us satisfied
throughout his tenure. Marcos Jr., like his father before him, is likely to continue to seek stronger
connections with the Chinese government. In the past, he has done so. He recreated a critical role
in opening a Chinese consulate in the northern Philippines in 2007 while serving as the
provincial governor. When it came to Duterte's foreign policy, he applauded him for "going in
the right route" by strengthening relations with Moscow and Beijing in 2016.

Marcos once told me, "I know he would support our country better than any other
president, "ang pangarap niyo ay pangarap ko." I feel that Marcos' foreign policy is one of the
most significant attributes of a president. A good policy with other nations is critical to my
country's ability to contribute to global peace; this is why it's vital. For a policy to be ideal, it
must be robust and able to promote peace while also changing our relationship with Russia and
other nations. No way in hell exists that the Philippines should remain out of other people's
issues. No, we can't, since the world is our issue and our problem is the whole globe. We might
lose in all of our country's activities and relations if we don't take this issue seriously.
Moreover, President Marcos had the three attributes of integrity, competence, and
intellect that stood out to me most. For this position, I'd want to see someone with a strong sense
of moral purpose who also has compassion for others. They must have a powerful work ethic and
leadership experience. My opinion of a candidate is influenced by his capacity to perform well
under pressure and his sense of personal accountability. President Marcos Jr. is almost certainly
less volatile than Duterte, and it is difficult to imagine a more volatile candidate. However,
Marcos Jr. was ambiguous on these and most other matters on the campaign trail. He may put in
place a more competent government, which may enhance the Philippines' war against COVID-19
and other obstacles.

Other factors that stood out to me were his perseverance, attention to his surroundings,
and a longing for tranquility. Voting for someone direct and clear in communicating with
constituents is critical. For me, actions speak louder than words. Therefore, I'd need to see what
the candidate is doing "off-camera" rather than what he's saying on camera.

For the sake of the Philippines, I am certain he will be an excellent leader. He's not only
used to using words. Even after the results, he was still the target of some critics. He ignored the
harsh things people said about him and concentrated on his nation, which he saw as his true
home. President Duterte has received a lot of flak over the last six years for executing "oplan
tokhang" ineffectively. Others lament his election, but everyone is thankful for his achievements
in office. As a result, they don't realize the benefits of their efforts until their job is done. They
will be thankful at that time since they didn't comprehend how much good you were doing or
intending to do for the nation. My message to the rest of the nation is the same. Waiting for
President Marcos to act is the best course of action at this point.

At some point, Marcos needs to concentrate his efforts on the farmers who provide for
our nation. Because of this, we won't have to invest rice in any other nation.
