Oppression from within SUCs

Progress is hard to come by in this part of the country because some learned people abuse their powers and position. To realize human development, we must be fair in our dealings.

Research budgets must be equitable and inclusive in state universities and colleges. The problem is the oppression from within. We have evil men who are self-righteous, fast to judge, and seek nothing but to elevate themselves at the expense of the talents and efforts of young scholars. They live on top of their most elaborated ivory towers of rational exuberance while milking the needs of the poor under the pretext of doing research intended to help their state of dire need. They are the materialization of sheer diabolical malice. They are these blood-sucking flies that whisper love for knowledge and preach justice to everyone, but in themselves, there is nothing about the things they preach.

To these people, be the saint you ought to be, leave the world of men, and live in isolation in the wilderness of the self, where salvation rests. If we want research in academia to flourish, we must stop that insecure attitude and the crab mentality that destroys instead of improving Philippine higher education.
