In P-NOY’s speech, the only thing that retained to my mind and the part that I really like is that P-NOY wants us Filipinos to be aware of our country being a member of ASEAN by translating the ASEAN Charter to Filipino and introducing the Charter in the schools here in the Philippines. Because Filipinos, especially the youth will be knowledgeable about ASEAN and through this, they can now critique and voice out their opinions about the bloc. Strengthening our bonds with other member states of ASEAN has a positive effect to our country especially with our economy through free trade agreements. I feel that President Noynoy's speech is somewhat indefinite regarding his plans for our country towards ASEAN. Still, I hope that his administration will be able to achieve the goal of ASEAN by 2015, a year before he leaves his of office.
