How Jack Enrile Answers the Need for More Jobs

To a majority of economic experts and commentators, in this present moment, our country is a potential “economic tiger”, however, a sensible person only needs to take a close look at the streets to notice that there are just too many people who are in abject poverty and unemployed; as a result, it is absolutely essential that senatorial candidates, in this year’s general elections, find solutions that will tackle this major issue, for example, Jack Enrile answers the need for more jobs. For the main reason that he earned a Presidential Masters Degree in Business Administration, not to mention being the chief executive of the JAKA Family Investments Corporation, Jack Enrile is, needless to say, qualified to talk about how to better the economic situation of this country and its inhabitants. And so that more jobs can be created for the Philippine public, Jack has stressed that, as an alternative to centralizing all economic energy into the National Capital Region (NCR), the innumerable outlying provinces of the country ought to be more economically developed, because if this happens then ultimately more jobs will be created. So according to Jack, if all the provinces in the country could be developed, then the country can potentially create a vast amount of jobs than ever before, and, in addition to all this, it can unleash an economic potential which we never thought could happen in our lifetimes. Thus, thePhilippines can possibly become “globally competitive”.

Jack Enrile on AIDS and Contraceptives and What This Entails

Even though it appears that the controversies and contentiousness of the RH Bill and its eventual implementation is a thing of history, this is so far from the truth especially in this year’s general elections, for the prime reason that now, all because of the implementation of the RH Bill, all political candidates will have to tackle the divisive issue of sex education, and this is one of the reasons why, in his campaign trail, the ex-congressman of the First District of the Province of Cagayan and current senatorial candidate Jack Enrile has been emphasizing his views of Jack Enrile on AIDS and contraceptives, since his views could be vital in winning crucial votes from either liberal voters or religious voters. On one hand, a political candidate might be able to win votes from liberal voters if they are treating the hot topic of sex education with an openness that implies their willingness to allow sex education as mandatory throughout the country; on the other hand, political candidates can potentially win votes from religious voters if they look at the issue of sex education with caution, meaning that they would not want sex education to be norm in this country’s approaching future. As a result, the senatorial candidates who are the most popular amongst the country’s registered voters are those candidates that are able to find a way to appeal to both types of voters, liberal and religious, and this is what Jack Enrile has successfully done, which is why, if one were to take a look at the recent Pulse Asia survey, he remains to be one of the top twelve popular senatorial candidates in the country.

Jack Enrile Is an Interesting Senatorial Candidate

If we take a look at all the candidates running to become part of the next Philippine senate, the one senatorial candidate who is most likely to stand out from the pack is the former congressman of Cagayan Jack Enrile.

Jack Enrile Might Be One of the Philippine Senators This June

Every senatorial candidate knows that they need to win the hearts and minds of the group of people who make up the biggest percentage of the voting population, in order to have any chance at becoming part of the Philippine senators this upcoming June.

Jack Enrile Is the Senator to Vote for in the Philippines

If one were to take a look at statistics, the cold hard facts, one would see that the voters who take up the biggest percentage of the voting population are the working class voters; in other words, if they already have decided on which senator to vote for the Philippines, then it is more than likely that that senator will be headed on his way to the Philippine Senate. As a result, it is no surprise that the majority of senatorial candidates are reaching out to the working class, in order to not only win their hearts and minds but to also win their vote. On the other hand, how many of these senatorial candidates are really, truly dedicated in helping out the working class, or are they really all just words, mere talk? Thankfully, the working class knows the answer. They know which senatorial candidates have their interests at heart. They know who is ready to take on the problems of hunger and poverty that they are facing on an almost day to day basis. They know the candidates who will find the best solutions in helping solve these problems. They know that former congressman of Cagayan and current senatorial hopeful Jack Enrile is one of these candidates.

Jack Enrile as a Senatorial Candidate

To have even the slightest chance of getting elected to the Philippine senate, a senatorial candidate must first of all have enough political expertise to back up his goals and agendas as well as a familiar charm about him that will appeal to the registered voters all across the Philippines. This is what political commentators and analysts think are the ways in which candidates can win the hearts and minds of the masses, namely the working class, who make up the biggest percentage of the voting population. In addition to this, it helps that senatorial hopefuls have had, throughout their long political careers, a dedication to the working class, for the reason that the working class never really forgets the good deeds done to them by political candidates. So it is no wonder that the former congressman of Cagayan and current senatorial hopeful Jack Enrile is presently one of the twelve most popular senatorial candidates, at least according to the recent Pulse Asia survey. When he served four terms as the congressman of the First District of the Province of Cagayan, Jack thoroughly dedicated his political life in helping solve the everyday problems of the province’s working class farmers, who were facing, on a day to day basis, hunger and poverty. As a result of seeing all this hardship, Jack took the initiative and created and championed two bills that would help cement him as the person for the masses.
