FOR A BETTER
PHILIPPINES:
Responsibilities of a
Filipino
Each and every one of us has a duty and a responsibility to
perform for the development and welfare of our country. The state
has the duty to protect the people while we, the citizens, have the
duty of allegiance to the state. We shall always be at the service
of our country and be proud of it in every situation and every
aspect. With this, I have listed some of the most crucial
responsibilities that I think citizens, including myself, shall
undertake.
It is by rendering allegiance, loyalty,
confidence, and faith to the country. I, a
Give allegiance Filipino, shall also be faithful to the
Philippines and shall also take pride in our
to the country country. Moreover, all of us shall give
allegiance to the government but still
retains the right to revolt against bad
leaders.
I'll convey the importance of patriotism,
Love and love for our homeland, and national
togetherness as Filipino. With this, we will
defend the all love our country and protect it in
difficult circumstances. It is our duty to
country protect our country since it is absolutely
important for it to survive. Actions greatly
show our passion for our country.

Since we will be the first to profit from the
country's progress and welfare, every
state citizen, including myself, must be concerned
about the nation. Anything that affects the
development and state should worry the populace. People

have the responsibility to work together for
the benefit of all.

the Constitution and obey the laws.
Disregarding the constitution will result in a

collapsing state and this will also mean
lawlessness and disintegration of the social
and laws
order. It is a common knowledge that we
should abide by the rules to refrain from
harming ourselves and our state.

Render respect are subject to obligations and
to the
responsibilities. Society as a whole and
the residents like me must ensure that the
authorities
laws are followed. Moreover, the
authorities shall also perform their jobs
accordingly.
Every eligible citizen must exercise their
right to suffrage, which is both a privilege
Register and
and a responsibility. The only way the will
of the people can be represented is by
vote
voting. I have a responsibility to vote
properly as a registered voter by learning
about the credentials and suitability of
candidates for public office.
Exercise
As a citizen, I know for a fact that Citizenship
implies the possession of rights; rights which
rights
are given by the state. We should exercise
them correctly and not abuse them. Proper
responsibly
usage will result in a better community while
abusive usage will incur a negative image and
situation for the society under which we live.
Work for self,
It is my and our duty to be useful and
productive members of society. All of us have
others'
parts needed to be performed well. When we
start to work for the betterment of ourselves,
improvement
we become productive and that productivity
of ours will contribute to the greatness and
improvement of our nation.
