The majority of the areas in the rural, like Kapit are still under developed, thus, they still need to prioritize on their requirement, i.e. to focus more onto the development of the basic needs especially infrastructure, to escalate them almost to the same level as the urban's.

With good infrastructure connectivity, this will open-up to multiplier effects due to better accessibilty, good telecommunication system, close proximity to medical facilities thus  better quality of life through better living environment.

Therefore, during the under developed stage, the communities in the rural area should focus more on the needs, rather than the wants.

However, when the probability of the majority of the communities, inclined more towards the rural to urban migration, then thre is a good tendency for the community to unite and go with the flow.

Without unity, the divisiveness will become a disadvantage rather than an advantage. When all the communities unite with one voice, no matter which side they choose, they wiill then have the numbers, thus they will be able to attain the 'people's power'.

The might of the 'people's power' have been proven in the Philippines, when they were able to bring down the might of the  'Marcos military regime" which were describe previously, as an 'invincible force to defeat' because of the backing by the military forces. People's power have thus, proven them to be wrong.

Thus, for these rural communities, being a pro-government is more of a strategic decision, taking onto account more to fulfilling the basic needs of the masses, rather than fulfilling the wants of the masses.

However, the 'wants' of the masses are not totally forgotten, it's just  parking them at the 'backseat' first, while the more urgent requirements, are being implemented and completed.

The rural communities as a whole are very smart,  but what hinders them now from moving forward is that, they are still divided and fragmented instead of united as one group to attain the 'full force'.

All is not a total loss for these rural communities , as, the delay is only a temporary setback,  more of a 'time delay mode' rather than the 'fast forward mode'.

Another word, the current generation will open the path now, whereby, if the rural communities don't achieve their goal now, sooner or later, they will achieved it through the 'strong determination' and the 'will to succeed' of the next generation.

RMK11will be the final phase to bring the country, to achieve the fully develop status. For the Kapit folks, they have missed the boat for too long, it's about time they work smart and put their ego aside and work together towards achieving their socio- economic goal.

Thus, the support of the gov't of the day is utmost importance, to streamline and to expedite the implementation of the development plan of Kapit, so that it will be on par, and the same level as the urban.
