The difference why Erap is loved and the others not.

I saw a post stating that China is a threat to world peace presumably because of its growing power. This must be coming from the west and people who believe that kind of propaganda.

Sa tingin ko kailangan ng pilipino ang uniform national ID system. Dahil sa terorismo.
