Economy Booster




Some say this is a hoax.  They have not felt the change as they are still jobless or underpaid. I am not into politics or I know someone who works for Philippine government. I respect the opinion of everyone. But let me share what I have in mind. 

There are lots of job openings, sad to say only few are qualified. Filipinos are technically qualified but when it comes to soft skills most applicants are having difficulty expressing themselves.  Foreign investors on BPO industry hire Filipinos as we are known to speak English language in the best way British and Americans could understand. 

Corollary to this, I encourage Philippine government to consider English language as the medium of instruction to start at least in high school. Filipinos should likewise do away with Juan Tamad (Lazy John) attitude waiting for the guava to fall, to eat it. We must hone our talents. In this way, when opportunity knocks, we are ready.


I am thankful for the effort of our Philippine President Benigno Aquino 111, local businesses and foreign investors that paved the way to our economic growth in 2012. To the critics, I encourage you to make every effort to contribute. No matter where we are in the world, we cannot change our roots. We are Filipinos, even if we change our black hair to blond or light brown. The color of our skin will reveal our Asian ethnicity.
