Hopefully this does happen. But I think corruption is so rampat in our government that no matter who is the president, nothing will really change. How can you change when everyone else below you is corrupt? I think if Macapagal steps down there isn't really any difference either. The next one is bound to have skeletons inside his or her closet as well. Do we really still think that people run for government because they want to help the country? :p
