Are Filipinos the most forgetful and most forgiving people in the history of mankind?
Yes, very much so I believe. Filipinos, they say, have awfully short memory. Either that or we are just not the vindictive kind of people. We forget and forgive mistakes and injustices – even the individuals who did these are soon up in our good books. There is no permanency in politics, be it party affiliations, associations, opinions, beliefs etc. It is us, the people, who are fools to believe in permanency. I think politicians should have this motto: “Today I fall, tomorrow I rise.
