Time and time again we have been reminded by different kind of people and groups regarding this, that a tree is known by its fruit. It is true and it is indeed an excellent saying.
If this is saying is universal and this can also be applied in other aspect or areas such as leadership, governance and so on.
This article is basically talks mainly on politics, it is also interesting to know that a leader is known or judge by way of his leadership. If the leader is good it will also manifest in his leadership.
But, in our political system mostly this does not apply, because, the people around our leaders which are supposed to the fruit(s) of our leaders are the very people that destroys them.
Let me site one instance for example, a mayor in one city is very eager to eradicate corruption in his term. But, what he doesn't know people under him are the one who are corrupt. There is one instance which was relayed to me by a very reliable source, a recently open Mall own by the city government. The mall that is supposed to be supported by the city government, all their requirements, office equipments and supplies yet the equipment that they are using at the moment are given by the people who are applying for store slot. What does this thing mean, they are already entertaining corruption, since they are now receiving this so called donation in effect they are already creating a breeding ground for corruption.
If this will not be addressed right away sooner or later this will become a full blown or grown corruption.
I am taking about the MALL IN ANTIPOLO CITY Mayor Sumulong is determine to eradicate corruption but let me say this, please examine and look at the people whom you are appointing not so much on the second but on the 3rd, 4rth level below these are the people that will destroy you. If you want to succeed in your campaign to eradicate corruption look at this
