Petition:


We are asking all Filipinos from around the globe to sign this petition to once and for all end tyranny and corruption in the Philippines.

We advocate for the re-annexation of the Philippines, a former U.S. colony, to the United States. We feel this is the only thing certain to protect the people from tyranny and massive graft and corruption from the highest office in the land down to the barangay level.

Corruption has brought forth unimaginable catastrophes in the lives of millions of Filipinos under its so called "independence", much much worse than all colonizations and wars that the country's been though that people line up as early as 12:AM just to secure a passport to work overseas.

Like Crimea's return to Russia, we feel the same with the Philippines towards the United States of America. Rather than just becoming a "pivot" to Asia, the US will expand her jurisdiction and influence in the region.

The Philippines was tagged "The Sick Man of Asia" and "Zaire of Asia." If independence was ever going to work for the Filipino people, it would have done so by now. It clearly has not. Rather, the millions of Filipinos are needlessly suffering because of corrupt politicians despite the country's massive natural resources.

The problem is that not only is there no light at the end of the tunnel, there's not even a tunnel! Filipinos are in a sand pit, and as they try to scramble out, the sides cascade down around them, threatening not just to keep them there deep in the hole but even to bury them.

We believe, from reputable surveys and evidence, that there is substantial sentiment for the Philippines to become a US territory. We also believe there is a reservoir of good feeling toward Filipinos from the days of World War II when Yanks and Filipinos fought and died side by side against the Japanese, and that this reservoir of good will may win millions of people in the United States to this cause.

We seek to become part of the United States not to avoid our civic responsibilities but truly to live up to them. We offer the United States not a servile colony but a valuable partner in its vital work in the world. We share the ideals of the people of the United States and seek to be one with them.

I am truly humbled by the attention this idea has received lately. This movement belongs entirely to all of you who feel the same ache for change. I never expected this to resonate with so many people.

Let us show our indignation of our failed leaders of making two class of Filipinos. The rich and the poor. Re-annexation of the Philippines as a Commonwealth of the United States of American will eliminate those greedy and corrupt Philippine leaders and bring back the honor of being Filipino-Americans. God Bless the Philippines and America.

USA-Hawaii-Guam-Philippines. The stepping stones to US position in Asia. Return our former territory to the US for a perfect intelligence gathering location in the Pacific against its economic rival; China.

I believe this is the only remedy to save our country from invasion from other countries.either be from china or malaysia because of our vast natural resources.these countries knew long before that we had deuterium platinum , oil and natursl gas deposits in mindanao .some politicians aspiring to be the next president are planning to sell the country yo china only for their personal interest so wake up my countrymen before its too late.all of us know that rich prople dont lije this move becsuse they want to evade paying the right taxes from their humungous income annually .as a common middle income earners say only the rich influencial people can get away with murder
