Bohol Vice Gov. Julius Caesar Herrera yesterday said he is confident that Boholanos will prevail despite the prevailing crisis.
"I have faith in the Boholano and I see no reason why we will not come out triumphant of our present difficulties," he added.
The vice-governor however said the process requires a deep resolve to start from the individual.
"We cannot demand change from everybody else while we ourselves refuse to change," he noted.
Herrera said that in many places today, there is a prevailing doom that borders on paralysis. He added that many people have lost their resolve to solve their problems.
"Many people particularly those in urban areas are very angry about what is happening but they do not want to do anything about it anymore," he added.
The vice governor said he is sad about this because there is no way for the situation to improve if people refuse to do anything.
"Nobody else will help us so nothing will happen if we refuse to help ourselves," he added.
According to the vice-governor, people have to make a decision to make a fresh start if they want the future to improve.
"We have to build now if we want our children to enjoy a better life than the one we have now," he added.
Herrera said this generation should rise from the culture of despair and frustration to stop the cycle of disappointment.
The vice-governor challenged Boholanos to start change among themselves and not wait for things to improve in other parts of the country.
"We have to make things happen among ourselves now," he pointed out.
Herrera said Boholanos are better than people in other places because they have a deep faith in God and are known for their resiliency.
"We have proven in the past that we refuse to give up in the face of crisis," he noted.
Herrera recalled that in the past, Boholanos sought work and opportunities in other places instead of giving in to despair.
"I have faith that the Boholanos of today, like our forefathers, will rise to the challenge of a better life," he said.
To do that however, he said it would require people to begin a fresh resolve to change from within.
He said people should learn to submit to authorities like their parents, the leaders in the community and the church.
"No country will prosper unless people are obedient to authorities," he noted.
Herrera said there is also a need for discipline starting from those in government.
"We who are in government should set a good example for our people," he added
