...and businesses for transportation, storage and communication, public administration, defence forces, finances services and social security (Philippine Statistics Authority, 2015). Industry sectors contributes 31.2% of the total GPD (Central Intelligence Agency, 2014), which contains manufacturing, construction, mining and production, and power production (Advameg, Inc, 2015). The leftover of 11.3% of the total GDP came from Agriculture (Central Intelligence Agency, 2014). Many years ago, Agriculture was once the main contributor to Philippines’s GDP. However in the last ten years there is an increase in other industries like production for apparels, ship building, electronics and semiconductors. Primary exports of Philippines are mainly conductors and electronic merchandise, transportation tools, garments, copper merchandise, crude oil merchandise, coconut oil, and fruits. Having major importers like China (23%), Japan (13%), United States (12%), Hong Kong (9.8%), and Singapore (5.4%), Philippines can potentially benefit from them by having almost the same GDP growth if these countries that Philippines exports significantly to are holding strong GDP growth as well (Alexander Simoes, 2015). Over the years, the rise in number of Filipinos working overseas have significantly boasted their country GDP growth (BANYAN, 2010). The Philippines was recently being seen as a newly industrialised country and rank at number 40 in terms of the largest economy within the world and is among...

They are trained to be professionals in the future that in the end will reform the society. Everyone has the right to education as what the Universal Deceleration on Human Rights stated. It is supported by the 1987 Philippine Constitution Section 1 of Article XIV that announces that “the state shall protect and promote the right of all citizen to quality education at all levels and shall take appropriate steps to make such education accessible to all.” This creates an avenue for the children to have quality education so that they will have a bright future and a better quality of life that most parents want to achieve and this will be beneficial and helpful to the nation itself. In the Philippine Journal (2006), Moises R. Tamandong cited different ingredients for quality education. He stated the following: 1.Curriculum which caters to the needs of the learners, carefully planned and based on real situations and culture of country by region. 2.Sincere, honest, enthusiastic and God-fearing educators. 3.Competent, well-equipped, skilled, concerned, hardworking, dedicated, properly compressed, loving and caring teachers. 4.Cooperative and concerned parents/ guardian. 5.Responsible media. ...

...Margarita Carla Ramos TEOCAR Position Paper 1 Specialization Vs. Diversification of a City’s Industry: A Case Study on Davao City’s Agriculture and Business Process Outsourcing economy Introduction With a thrust to enhance its position as an economic magnate in the Southern Philippines, there has been debate on the issue wether Davao City government and private sector broaden its economy and identify itself towards a different sector or maintain being an agricultural-based economy alone. Initiatives were taken for Davao City to take advantage of the business process outsourcing (BPO) or call center business opportunities as these give the city an edge in a global scale . This paper will argue that a diverse industry for a city’s economy is more stable than a specialized one. In this case, Davao City should be open to new industries that are brought about by technology and global modernization and this is on the contemporary industry of BPOs and technology service. It may seem that investing on this may be a volatile risk for an agriculture-known city, but keeping the City’s diverse industry strong and open to new development in its own respective ways will make the economy more progressing and increase potential for growth (Jacobs, 1969). The proponent shall base its position that a diverse industry is favorable than specializing, by looking at cases with similar economic stance on the two different industry scenario and on theories of related studies on such cases. ...

...International Review of Business Research Papers Vol. 4 No.1 January 2008 Pp.68-84 Lessons from Jeepney Industry in the Philippines Candy Lim Chiu* This paper reports on the empirical investigation of the perspective of jeepney industry based on their actual experiences in the Philippines. These viewpoints were elicited during face to face, structured interviews lasting between 1.5 to 3 hours. The industry are experiencing great uncertainty with respect to long-term goals especially if what is currently happening is unstable, uncertainties about the magnitude of jeepneys in the market, the cost and benefits, but stakeholders are willing to be involved in promoting the industry to its maximum potentials. There appear to be few articulated and carefully thought-out development strategies nor is there much evidence of internal business processes being reengineered to accommodate the requirements of jeepney presence. The objective of the study is to examine what are the problems, benefits and what might be done to alleviate the jeepney industry in the country. Field of Study: Business, Entrepreneurship, Jeepney Industry and Transport 1. Introduction The jeepney culture that remains alive for five decades are no longer tenable. The ending of the age of the jeepney undoubtedly marks a significant turning point in the Philippines historical development.

...family’s basic needs for everyday life but also to secure one’s future. Unemployment is a stressful life event that can lead to financial difficulties, depression, anxiety, somatic symptoms, and increased substance use. (Wanberg 1999). It results to emotional health problems due to depression and anxiety as well as low self esteem and lose of respect from other people due to the inability to support one’s self and his family. In order to be employed, one of the most common requirements of an employer or a business establishment is that a person applying for work should be of good moral character. In most cases, a job applicant is required to secure clearances from either the National Bureau of Investigation or the Philippine National Police. The clearances serve as certificate of good moral character and behavior. The clearance reveals if a person has a clean police record or if he/she has been already convicted of a crime. The employment situations of ex-convicts are a different story because the certificate secured from the said law enforcement agency reveals that the applicant has a bad record on file. Employers tend to reject people with a criminal record for the following reasons: people with a criminal record are seen, generally, as undesirable, to show moral disapproval; concern that employers would be held responsible for recruiting a person with a criminal record. As of now, there is no known employment statistics concerning ex-convicts and even...
