Human Rights and the Equality of all Men

              An ideal society is one in which every man and woman enjoys equal rights and equal opportunities. This condition is one of the basis foundations of freedom which in turn redounds to the welfare of the community in particular and of humanity in general. The innate talent skills and potentials of a person can only be harnessed to its optimum functions if they are not suppressed by any kind of discrimination.
              Equal rights and equal opportunities must be accorded to all regardless of sex, age, race, religions, ethnic groups, etc. However, there are times that discrimination exists to the detriment of the nation. Political power sometimes reign supreme and favors the elite over the masses. This is a discrimination that is even worse than the downgrading of others rights and opportunities. I think that our country can be more prosperous if the rule of law and not of men really governs the implementation of our rights and opportunities.

               Young students like me are inspired to strive and excel for the future if they know that their rights and opportunities are equally safeguarded by the government. Each of us must therefore share his effort to weave a perfect community, enjoying his rights and pursuing his opportunities without discrimination.
