A SIMPLE response to a mammoth challenge this fellow-balikbayan doctor [Martin Bautista] has taken upon himself: sir, more power to Davids like you, who, rightly, have sprung the conventional box, and dare the “windmills.”
Like you, I was thought to be a nitwit when I returned to the Philippines from 38 years in Europe. I chose to stay in Mindanao for the very same reasons you’re trying to wake up this turpid nation of otherwise, warm, good people.
Sir, I’m already campaigning for your party. May more wake up and do something about it, this time. Thank you– from a small but significant spark of a sector of our nation.

Dr. Bautista stands out among this field of has-beens and traditional politicians. We need people like him.

I listened to the podcast on Dr. Bautista’s platform in his run for senator. My hats off to this intelligent and big-hearted physician who puts his personal aspirations and professional career on the line just to help this struggling country out of the political mire that it is in. We need more people like him who are credible and untainted and with a clear platform for the progress of this nation!
