Solution to Economic Problems of Philippines:
To even the most astute observer whose sympathies
might lie with the current administration,
it would seem from the results of the last national
election that the government of the Philippines
was populated with thieves,intellectual dwarfs,and
other assorted clowns with high name
recognition.However, an occasional jewel of
competency and perception can be fund in
government even if the press and media is so unware
of the fact.
There are basically three attitudes displayed when it
comes to talking about improving the Philippine economy.The government,as encodied in the inauguration speech of President Arroyo ,tells us what needs to be done , that the administration will do it,and offers no plan or direct
solution in public.The pro-poor believes that the
economic pie will never get any bigger
and would preper everyone be equal...and poor while
trying to get a few more crumbs for its constituent base.Their agenda is to raise the "poor" to higher standards;an extra can of sardines each day.They intend to achieve this by forcing those who are wealthier to eat sardines also.The "moneyed elite"(probably you and me) has a different personal solution.They ignore the big picture while concentratingon prospering in and protecting their own small world. Nevertheless,there is a bigger picture that needs to be examined and solutions developed
that fit reality,outside of political considerations.
