What is 65 Billion? What will you do for 65 Billion? Or, what can 65 Billion do for you?
Look in this perspective:
It can buy you Queen of Pop Madonna's gold Shu Uemera eyelash curler, that one she said she will never trade for all the Ferraris in the world. It also can buy you a whole subdivision with house and lot units each amounting to no lower than 500 Million pesos, and imagine how unimaginable a 500 Million-peso house and lot would look like. You can also spend 2-3 summers on Mars and double that if you'd rather spend it on the moon...
Why don't you imagine even just one of these:
Be able to buy every college student a laptop in your city, then expand to the whole National Capital Region.
Or send 5 million out-of-school-youth to 5,000 high schools you can build and pay 250,000 teachers.
Wipe out the entire squatters' areas throughout the Philippines and from those areas afford the rise of decent residence villages.
Turn the country into an economic giant by giving out millions of jobs.
Which of the two groups do you think would the recipients of a commission for an international business deal prefer? If you could be it, what would you choose? The choice gives an extremely rare opportunity of self-service or public service. Which is which, depends on you. Your choices mean a lot.
