We are really aware nowadays of what is happening in our nation. I, myself, could really tell that we have a financial crisis especially today that prices of products are increasing. Based on the article, About Montalvan, there are ways to decrease the rate of population on the country to lessen its poverty level. Some ways are the omnibus law covering reproductive health, population policy, two-child policy and sex education for the youth. Most people say that these are effective ways to control and decrease the growth of population. Some also say that these are also the reason for decrease in labor. There are so many questions that run in our minds that why do we have to have these kind of ways well in fact, base on what I have observed in our society today, there is no change at all even though we go on trying to do these ways.
It was mentioned in the article about the theory of Malthus. Many people knew about the theory of Malthus and most of the cling to it. It says in the article that those who do cling to Malthus’ theory up to this day misinterpret not just for his thought but they do have a successful population program. Japan, Germany and Italy are now in the throes of the so called “demographic winter.” The governments of Russia, Singapore, South Korea, and Bulgaria are now offering incentives to encourage childbearing in the attempt to curb population decline. Yet in the Philippines, many anti-life advocates do not cling to this theory because of the own reasons. This is really one big factor why the country does not rise from the problem in the increase of population. As for these reasons that they have, they have their points being against this theory and influence Philippine legislative efforts so to not follow the theory.
On the other side, for some reasons, the article says that population decrease is not a result to poverty fore in many years ago, the population rate of the country decreased but still many people are in the level of poverty. I should say that a agree with it because though population will decrease, if there is nothing to eat, nothing jobs offered, and nothing less to survive, still poverty will not be gone. There are many side activities why poverty does not decrease like corruption, and more. But in general, decreasing could also help in lowering the level of poverty in any sense. Still it could give more opportunities for many to have a descent job to have a better living.
As for my own point of view, I do not certainly agree about this bill in the case of reproductive health which was mentioned in the article though this really could help in the succession of the country. But we should still have to consider our human rights. Our country is a catholic country. We believe in many things especially God. We have commandments to follow. Though contraceptives do can really help in decreasing population growth, many people will be affected in whatever they believed in. Maybe there are some other ways in preventing the growth of population rather considering this bill as appropriate in our country. Some other countries have a very big rate in population but they are not in the stage where almost all the people die and suffer because of poverty. It is not only the rate of the number of people that we should consider, we should also look at the people who handle the lives of many people, those people who mislead the money given to them to help their own country men, and those who just destroy the name of the country.
