I have not actually covered all the winners, pending response from Comelec’s Education & Information Director IV, James Arthur B Jimenez, to assist me in blasting my communique to the members of the new political class, circa-1st half of 2007. {There is a scheduled barangay and sangguniang kabataan or SK elections coming up this October of 2007.}
I have only written the 12 new Senators {Actually, only but a few are “new;” others are comebacking, some, kapamilya.} of the Republic of the Philippines. However, only two of the dozen senators-elect responded.
PAGING ALL FILIPINO AND FRIENDS OF THE FILIPINO NETIZENS OF THE WORLD: GET THIS MESSAGE ON & FOR HEALTH TO ALL YOUR NEWLY-ELECTED LEADERS IN YOUR RESPECTIVE CITIES, TOWNS, PROVINCES AND CENTRALS!

“SUBJECT: Let our Media be of some Help to You in Implementing your Health Programs for your local, congressional and national constituencies (as you promised them in your platforms and campaign trails) “Dear Senators:
“CONGRATULATIONS to all you, winners, in the (local, congressional and) senatorial elections of 2007! May your fresh mandate transform you into a new political class by itself, that can make the ultimate difference for the people you profess to serve and protect…
“It may interest you to know that theMAGAZINE is hosting a series of health and wellness press & media forums this year up to next year to “pre-cover, cover proper, and post-cover” your health programs, projects and activities on our color and glossy pages of a “health & wellness sourcebook in magazine format.”
“Please guide us accordingly regarding this intent of theMAGAZINE to partner with you in helping let your constituencies know more about the briefs and details of your health programs for your people – short- , medium- and long-term.
“theMAGAZINE wants the wisdom, the values and the privileges of your health programs to benefit all Filipinos, most importantly, the grassroots, whose budget does not cover their health if they have a budget to live by decently at all.
“We have been featuring Quezon City and will feature the likes of Marikina as healthy communities, in accord with the World Health Organization (WHO) standards. But we just do not want the high-profile cities and towns figure prominently on our pages.
“We want your own ‘healthy thoughts‘ to start the ball rolling of theMAGAZINE Special Communities Section in highlighting what’s healthy in your respective communities that others (barrios or barangays) may replicate, if not compliment your towns and cities with. How do you do it? Why do you do it? Together, we can drum up the common grounds in which we can all work together for our common good: public, private and media partnerships.
“Healthy thoughts (defined here as proactive, positive, productive and progressive thoughts that require likeminded, likehearted and likespirited feelings of action for common good) can make a healthy nation.
“We enjoin you, therefore, to support each other in fighting the fight of health & wellness – more interactively, more convergently, more interlinked and more interconnectedly.
“THANK YOU for putting your money, and the people’s money, where our mouths are. Good health and…
“God bless you!
Marc Guerrero.”
