The Philippines Investment Boom

[@giovannilaru-an]

*hangad ko tlaga na gumanda ang buhay ng mga pinoy. at umunlad ang pinas. makaahon sa hirap. Gus2ng gus2 ko yun mangyari....* 🙏😊

[@IamArnel]

PRRD did the groundwork, and made the necessary changes, while PBBM did the marketing abroad, to attract the FDIs. The one thing PBBM seems to be having a hard time on, is having his own kababayans (countrymen) fully behind him. There's a lot of politicking, bickering, libel, insinuations, innuendos, and now even murder. I pray the changes in the constitution would go thru, thats another FDI driver that would probably put us on par with our neighbors. Probably.

[@rencallueng6706]

An overwhelming majority of Filipinos support the president. You must be mistaking the noisy and minuscule opposition as a significant force.

The Philippines should encourage small and medium enterprises in machinery, die casting, other manufacturing. It must develop a defense industry capable of sustaining a war against any attacks from China

[@barbaraescuela60]

not going to happen. Specially things like die-casting in a small or medium enterprise is just not economical sustainable. Next to that we lack any proper engineers and knowledge. this will be a bigger issue with generations to come, seeing the huge brain drain and scaring students away from the top universities. Everybody with a little bit of education wants to run abroad asap

[@BatAskal]

Doubtful we can overtake Vietnam and Indonesia in FDI's. We missed out the opportunity from US-China decoupling when some of the supply chains are going anywhere thanks to Duterte who is belligerent to US. Yes, open investments are good idea, but then we still lack the infrastructure to make this work. Also, the rule of law is problematic. If you go to US, even rural towns have factories and industries running and that is the difference between Philippines and developed countries.

It was not Duterte, but the FDI policies in place that makes US investors chose other SEA countries. Ph has been an ally to USA for decades even before Duterte, but why did US in investors chose China and other SEA countries instead? That's because of Ph's so tight protectionist FDI policy. Remember that USA hates communist and Xi, but why chose China for investments? That's because of China's policy.

As a Filipino living OVERSEAS, these reforms are necessary, they already OPEN up the Public Sector Investments Act, and the Retail Liberalization Act, and reduce the Corporate Tax to 25%, for me better to further REDUCE it to 20%, to be MORE competitive in the ASEAN, most ASEAN countries had a 25% on Corporate Tax, also ADDRESS the Electricity Rates in the Philippines, it"s EXPENSIVE after Japan, that is why the MANUFACTURING sector in the Philippines is WEAK, and DWARFTED by Thailand, Malaysia, and Vietnam, the Philippines has STILL a LONG way to go before can CATCH up with Thailand, and Malaysia, which is now OVERTAKEN the Philippines, decades ago, now VIetnam overtake us LAST year...don't wait for Bangladesh, to OVERTAKE us

An economic miracle is possible if our country is opened to FDI through constitutional reform. As of this moment, it's impossible to happen, as the FDI is limited to only a maximum of 40%. In reality, FDI brings decent-paying jobs to anyone, especially 15 years of age and up. With that, there's a potential that our country will be promoted to first-world status.

[@Gregory-Masovutch]

Foreign investment is surely needed to improve transit infrastructure. Subway and MRT systems are severely lacking, express bus lanes, standard of living needs to be raised since skilled workers become OFW and a brain drain starts to form. It’s an export job economy with billions of remittances sent back to the country which further stabilizes the peso.

The Philippines should first come up with harsh foolproof laws against corruption to increase government funds to fuel economic growth. Then concentrate with making effective systems to eliminate red tape. Afterwards with the added money from the strict anti corruption policies develop the economic zones with company training facilities usually in provinces with emphasis to affordable energy supply and easy access infrastructures to make it more attractive especially since provinces has low wages. Next give 1 year tax reliefs to pioneer industries like what they did in Singapore. These things had help countries from poor economic development to be one of the developed countries in the world. Right now we should stop looking at foreign investors as cash cows instead we should also treat them as people who are also looking for profit.
