MARK AS BRAINLEST KO MAKAKASAGOT NETO

between a society where people accept modest sacrifices for a common good or a more

contentious society where groups selfishly protect their benefits.” Do you see this tension or

conflict of interest in our context as Filipinos? What particular issue can you connect with this?

Explain your answer.

YES, I see this conflict of interest in our own context as Filipinos. The mere example of this one is when we are exercising our right to vote.

igotyourusername3 In this world, the term "survival of the fittest" is a reality. We struggle to continue living in this vast world of opportunistic and advantageous society. It is true that most of the time, people are bombarded on the decision-making regarding modest sacrifices for common good and selfish protection of own benefits.

igotyourusername3 With this in mind, I always see the picture of national election in our country. As citizens, we keep on complaining about how the government officials run our country but we keep on voting the wrong persons during election. As citizens, we know in the first place that we could have a collective decision on whom to vote for the betterment of the country, however, when envelopes loaded with money (vote-buying) are handed unto us, we forget the essence of our right to select leaders.

igotyourusername3 All of a sudden, we think of how useful the money will be for our groceries and other needs which it can be used. We forget the long-term effect of our decision. We forget to scrutinize the candidate and its capability to run a government office when we are handed with money because all of a sudden, we think of its usefulness in our financial struggle.

igotyourusername3 Hence, setting modesty and morality aside, we vote according to our own vested interest and we forget to sacrifice for the common good of our society.
