How does political crisis affects our economy?

Nowadays, almost all of the Filipinos lost their trust to our government officials especially our dear president, Gloria Macapagal- Arroyo. It started when the "Hello Garci" thing came out...
We all know that various politicians do corrupt the money of our country. But the shocking news was when a tape was presented to the media containing the conversation of the president and Garcillano about the election last May 2004.
And the president did admit it though. The sorry thing comes next, the opposition and so on..
And how do it affects our country? Well, in many ways. One thing is our economy. With the situation of our country nowadays, the foreign investors are afraid to invest in our country. Why? It's pretty simple.. If you're an investor, would you want to invest in a country that the president cheated in the last election and now, the people are mad at her and against her? Of course, not! You want to earn money, not lose it.. And besides, you don't want that in just a snap, your business will be destroyed or to disappear....
And with our situation right now, our economy is down and still getting down.. I just hope we could get over these problems and be a better nation. Of course, with the help of our Lord Jesus Christ, nothing is impossible. Thank you for reading my article, hope you liked it and God bless!..
