I dread the idea of hosting another program
knowing that I must use our native dialect. Wether it is English or Iloko, or
even the most common “Tagalog”, it will present no significant changes on my performance.
I wish there’s an emcee training just lurking nearby waiting for me to find. It
would be an advantage to professionally know how to handle people (sometimes
annoying people) for I wanted to reach out too.
If you do intend to live here, it is said
that “it is your responsibility to know how to converse with Iloko” (I was even
ignorant back then that I was saying “Ilokano” when I was referring the
language). I am not really against the use of Iloko, but someone should realize
how to ease up the burden. Some regulation constricts us in our daily lives but
will not give us alternatives. If badly implemented, it might hamper the
immediate progress that should have taken place.
Education
is something should be promoted and everyone should be glad to have. I believe
it should be something accessible and as much as possible, free. Instead of
corrupting, give that money to students.
I wish someone up will wake up. I will not
blame the government but the people governing, well even they change the
political system same faces will creep around.
Assuming that it is mandatory, foreign
person or call them newcomer, it is their responsibility to know the native
dialect. Who will teach them? How about access of information? Is it highly
available in the form or books or over the internet, etc.? How committed they
are in promoting the Iloko use of language if their apparent way is only by
imposing charges.
This makes me wonder if they’re really
wanted to preserve what left in this Iloko culture. Are they really promoting
and reaching out there best?
Good luck for me this day…
