CONGRATULATIONS to President Marcos and Vice President Duterte. A large part of our future is in your hands. You have been entrusted with a huge mandate from the people. Please use it wisely and judiciously. To those many who supported them please continue to make all of us work for our betterment. To those disappointed, please be constructive. We only have one government. Times are very treacherous given all the challenges we face, whether from internal or external causes.

Related to that is, what constitutes a successful state and a failed or at least unperforming state or country? My view is in its purest form on gauging success — is there net immigration or emigration?
