Bayan, ano pa ang mangyayari sa ‘yo?

September 18, 2006

Vietnam ranked 4th among the most competitive economies among the ASEAN replacing the Philippines, according to a survey conducted by the Singaporean Institute of Policy Studies (IPS) and the Nanyang Technological University (NTU)… I just browsed this one this morning as I was researching on the some Vietnamese companies.

3Million jobless pinoys.

Mike Arroyo filed libel cases against 42 journalists.

What do I expect from here?

  • Cambodia ranks 5th among ASEAN economies replacing the Philippines by 2008. I have no data for this but it is very possible, I believe. Knowing the capability of our political system to self-destruct.
  • At the rate of increase of unemployment per year, there will be close to 5M unemployed filipinos by 2010. Since 2001, GMA has been talking about reforms but these reforms were not  effective (if there are any) to correct this problem. In 2004, she talks about 10M more jobs to be generated by 2010. I don't think so. She is way reaching beyond  the stars just looking for the moon.
  • Philippines will be one of the "Moguls" of corrupt countries. In 2004, Philippines is with the "Matriarchs and Clans" alongside Russia and Mexico according the World Bank Anti-Curroption book reports. Hmmm… So we're like the higlanders now, huh? Immortal corrupt… Baka ma libel ako neto…
  • and… by 2010, Mike Arroyo will file libel suits to 6M Filipinos… including bloggers…

What's worst than that?

You are dammed right, am in Vietnam now, for past three years back and forth, am in advertising here, they are so productive and progressive! What you see in their dailies is business, business and investment and more investment, tourist are flocking like ants, almost zero crime rate, food is cheap.

productive naman ang pinas… kaso wala na masyado trabaho dito…

Sabagay, ang gusto lang naman ata ng gobyerno ay ang pagtaas ng remittance ng mga katulad nating OFWs. Ipinagmamayabang pa yan ng NEDA! kelan kaya ngaing batayaan ang pagtaas ng OFW remittance sa pag-angat ng ekonomiya???
