Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Economic Conditions in the Philippines This book is written for beginners in the study of economic conditions in the Philippines. Its object is to explain the economic position of the Filipinos in their own Islands and in the world in general, and to state, analyze, and discuss economic conditions found here. Theoretic economics enter into this discussion only as subordinate to and explanatory of actual fact. It is believed that this study will give to students an idea of actual economic conditions existing in the Philippines and a comparative idea of those found in other countries, and at the same time will result in a knowledge of the natural laws upon which all economic discussion and reasoning must be based. Throughout the book the data obtained from special economic reports by teachers are presented in collective form. For reference purposes, information which warrants special notice is credited to the teacher who furnished it. I am also indebted to the following persons for reviewing the portions of the manuscript which treat subjects in which they are particularly interested. From the Bureau of Agriculture: Mr. Otis W. Barrett, Chief of the Division of Experiment Stations; Mr. P. J. Wester, Horticulturist; Mr. M. M. Saleeby, Fiber Expert; and Mr. C. M. Connor, Chief of the Agronomy Division.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Against the backdrop of the global financial crisis and rising food, fuel, and commodity prices, addressing poverty and inequality in the Philippines remains a challenge. The proportion of households living below the official poverty line has declined slowly and unevenly in the past four decades, and poverty reduction has been much slower than in neighboring countries such as the People's Republic of China, Indonesia, Thailand, and Viet Nam. Economic growth has gone through boom and bust cycles, and recent episodes of moderate economic expansion have had limited impact on the poor. Great inequality across income brackets, regions, and sectors, as well as unmanaged population growth, are considered some of the key factors constraining poverty reduction efforts. This publication analyzes the causes of poverty and recommends ways to accelerate poverty reduction and achieve more inclusive growth. it also provides an overview of current government responses, strategies, and achievements in the fight against poverty and identifies and prioritizes future needs and interventions. The analysis is based on current literature and the latest available data, including the 2006 Family Income and Expenditure Survey.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this volume, a leading group of scholars pose the question, has the Philippine economy rejoined the dynamic East Asian mainstream and, if so, what set of policies and priorities are required to maintain the strong economic momentum of recent years? Successive chapters address issues related to growth and poverty, infrastructure and urbanization, education, health, the environment, energy, development finance, and governance and institutions. The book has been written with a broad audience in mind. First and foremost it is for readers in, and interested in, this fascinating and important country with a population that now exceeds a hundred million. Second, it will appeal to those in the broader development community with an interest in the analytical and policy challenges that democratic, middle-income countries face as they struggle to lift their citizens out of poverty and to achieve broad-based and environmentally sustainable growth.

Excerpt: ...given possession of the land for another year, so that he may pay off the debt to the landlord. In Zambales advances of palay and money at high rates of interest are made, as in the kasama system. 1 In Pampanga the large landowners rent tracts of considerable area to tenants, who in turn become landlords by subleasing the parcel to other tenants. The rent in this case is usually money. (From the economic report submitted by Mrs. Lois Stewart Osborn.) In Iloilo the sugar land is sometimes rented for cash at approximately eight pesos a hectare, this rental including the use of the mill and all the buildings on the land. Such large rented areas are worked by either the proprietary or the share system. 2 Reports of Walter K. Perret and Horatio Smith. 3 From economic report of Fred T. Lawrence. 4 Reports of M. M. Boney and R. G. McLeod. SHARE SYSTEMS In the three systems just described the possessor of the land is the only person directly interested in the amount of the crop. A large part of the cultivated area of the Philippines is leased on shares, by an arrangement in which the owner of the land and the tiller of the soil are different persons, but both are directly interested in the amount of the crop. In some regions and under certain circumstances the share tenants are comparatively free in action; in others they are to a greater or less extent under the direction and supervision of the landlord, not only in matters pertaining to the tilling of the soil, but in family and everyday affairs. The Manorial System The manorial system approaches that which existed in Europe at the time of the Spanish conquest of the Philippines. territorial serfs, bound to the land to perform certain fixed services, and they were not destitute of rights, in...
Download or read book The Economy of the Philippines written by Peter Krinks and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2003-09-02 with total page 377 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the late 1950s, the Filipino economy could reasonably have been described as more advanced than those of its South Asian neighbours. Ever since then, however, it has consistently lagged behind and only really started to grow strongly in the mid-1990s and even then it failed to achieve the growth rates of the rest of Southeast Asia ten years earlier. This book critically analyses the Filipino economy and attempts to explain the problems that it has faced, as well as the solutions that need to be put into practice. This accessible and comprehensive book will be of great use to students, academics and business professionals with an interest in the economies of Asia.

Download or read book The Determinants of Economic Growth in the Philippines written by Ms.Willa Boots J. Tolo and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2011-12-01 with total page 25 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper uses a panel of 23 emerging markets for the period 1965?2008 to study the determinants of per capita GDP growth in the Philippines. The Philippines is an outlier in terms of agricultural exports, investment, research and development, population growth, and political uncertainty. Panel regressions reveal that these factors, along with the deficit, inflation, trade openness, the current account balance and the frequency of crisis episodes are siginificant determinants of growth. A growth index confirms that these determinants also capture the absolute and relative performance of each country over time and suggests that the Philippines has lacked a sustained period of relatively strong economic reforms.
Download or read book The Philippines written by James K. Boyce and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 1993-07-01 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book analyzes the Philippine economy from the 1960s to the 1980s. During this period, the benefits of economic growth conspicuously failed to "trickle down". Despite rising per capita income, broad sectors of the Filipino population experienced deepening poverty. Professor Boyce traces this outcome to the country's economic and political structure and focuses on three elements of the government's development strategy: the "green revolution" in rice agriculture, the primacy accorded to export agriculture and forestry, and massive external borrowing. James Boyce is the author of "Agrarian Impasse in Bengal" and co-author of "A Quiet Violence: View from a Bangladesh Village".
