The other Filipinos cannot feel it. But for me, I feel it. Yes, the price of the rice has been increased but over all the inflation last year is very slow as compared to previous years.

[@mingkay4743]

It was actually very quick this time. Regular rice went from 50 pesos to 62 pesos, eggs went from 7 pesos to 10 pesos, and other goods went up by 20-30% since June or July of 2023. That's a very high inflation rate in a matter of 6-7 months. It's understandable though that this is a worldwide phenom but the government should really work hard to not let this rise futher.

[@JFelisimo]

@@mingkay4743 think for the over all outcome not just for the rice and eggs then you will realize. And take note the whole world experiences inflation but the thing is how much the burden they are taking.

[@OneClick287]

Quite contrary to what really happened as soon as Marcos seated as president the price went up faster than my salary

@@JFelisimo I did think about that. As I mentioned the price of all other goods went up as well, for example canned goods, vegetables, spices, meat, fish, gas... Do I need to mention more and enumerate the prices before and after? If you do groceries regularly you will know. TBH, I don't really spot the price hikes right away but what happened last year was just too sudden. Not only me but everyone in the neighborhood including my 'suki na' vendors were shocked. Anyway, as I mentioned as well it is a GLOBAL SITUATION so we can't solely blame the government although they can do a lot better.

@@zachzoldyck1796 My reply strangely got deleted. You can Google it. Just type Philippine inflation rate December 2023 and then January 2024.

Basically country with high population will experience high GDP growth but that doesn’t reflect the true picture of the citizen well being…other factors should also be taken into account such as unemployment rate, salary level, corruption index, etc

[@lizmercado7360]

Sure😂😂

Unemployment rate in the PH right now is at all time low at 3%..

[@deancafe4739]

16% of the population live below the poverty line, philiopine wages are low and not enough jobs for the people, that's why around 12million people leave the country to find work outside, corruption index in the philippines is high. Philippines education is so low that they are ranked as one of the lowest comprehension population in the world, that's why they keep electing the same corrupt political dynasties.

후진국일땐 다수의 복지보다 나라 경제 크기를 빨리 높이는걸 목표로 해야합니다

I hope the Philippines will further open up its economy to foreign direct investors by allowing 100% foreign equity ownership in capital-intensive industries that Filipino corporations cannot afford to capitalize 60% equity shares like natural resource extraction, agriculture, forestry, energy, education, and mass media.

[@littlesenorita1488]

I do not agree with the 100% foreign ownership. Just the NGCP alone who have 40% chinese share is already a headache. How much more if it's 100%?

[@JosephSolisAlcaydeAlberici]

@@littlesenorita1488 any foreign equity ownership restrictions should have not been codified in the constitution, but in ordinary legislation that could be easily amended by Congress. Allowing 100% foreign equity ownership legally will discourage foreigners from using Filipino dummies to skirt foreign equity ownership restrictions just to do business in the Philippines.

Kung negosyante ka mag isip hindi pwede yan. Pero kung gusto mo maging empleyado payag ka jan. Pero sa opinyon ko lugi tayo kung 100% sa dayuhan. Plus kung maisipan nila ilipat negosyo nila ng sabay sabay. Biglang bagsak ekonomiya niyan.
