The Philippines geography problem is sadly its biggest bottleneck for any economic growth. How do you think the government should fix it? Let us know down below!
Not just that geography, but there are other factors, including corruption, mismanagement, FDI restrictions, and so on. Opening FDI and shifting to parliamentary and federalism would be the only solution to that long-term problem.
Sweden, Norway, Finland, Canada, US, Indonesia and Austraila are bigger in land size AND have more islands than the Philippines. Most are developed and rich countries. Indonesia, Japan, Madagascar, Papua New Guinea as "island countries" countries are bigger in land area than the Philippines. Japan has bigger land area of 377 km2 and about the same number of islands 6,852 compared to the Philippines. Yet it highly developed, advanced and rich.
I'd say subsidized maritime transportation so that commerce and people can go into numerous islands for the sale of their goods or for access to either education/employment. Also, to hold politicians to a much higher degree. I'd say a de*th penalty for those sentenced with Graft like that one politician who siphoned P780 Million (alledgedly) since 2009.
The sea should not be seen as an obstacle in fact it is makes you united : We Indonesian see our water as bridges that connecting our people. Warm regards from 🇮🇩 to all of 🇵🇭
The Nautical Highway, a much underrated accomplishment by the Gloria Arroyo admin, is truly the unsung hero of the country's economic progress. Soon when future leaders will make bridges connecting all three island chains commerce in the north and raw materials in the south, the country will become truly an economic powerhouse.

the culprits of illegal importation & exportation are one of the big reasons why the Philippine coastguard, navy, & similar agency was made weak. those culprits includes some legislators themselves & ppl who has influence on legislators & the Admin. even today, the navy & coastguard have no sense of urgency, they only field vessels at a very slow rate because the culprits are doing their best to slow it down
The concern of the investors is the Ph is far away or long distance from neighboring countries, small country with small resources or commodities, lack of space to do business, we always hit by intense destructive typhoon, powerful volcanic eruption like (Mount Pinatubo) and we always hit by earthquakes almost everytime and everywhere of the country that's why every projects is expensive with good quality and durability
The concern of investor here in the Philippines is the 60-40 ownership plus large company tax......but it has been solved by Duterte,so expect investors will flock in marcos presidency💯
Well if the bridges was done a years ago, the price will be different from the present , start the PanayGuimarasNegrosCebu bridges, it is the missing key, the catalyst of the whole Visayas region, use ro/ro for Cebu, Bohol ,Leyte route since San Juanico bridges connects Leyte to Samar half of the problem is solve, thats my take Asia

@@shinsenshogun900 it is working, on your first paragraph, ferry transport are striving, goods are moving from island chain, what hinders is the time, the slowness of of the movements that's why bridges are vital that compliments with port as alternative route, your second paragraph reminds you that you don't live on the ground, seem youre not aware what's happening

Jay Mark Montecillo, mali ka , magkakaroon ng giyera sa Mindanao pagkatapos mag declare ng Independent Nation ang Western mindanao after a couple of years thru Federalism. Philippines needs a central govt, where do you think those provinces will get their money thru Federalism. In fact those provinces are physically burden to NCR because the nature of their land with so much mountains but little minerals, only a few provinces can support themselves. Right now Western Mindanao is Autonomous Region, Manila does not interfere with their economic,social activities, Manila does not get money from them, What do you think they can't do in Autonomous Region that they can do in Federalism. The Philippines with so many languages is not ideal for Federalism, it will split into many small countries. Imperial Manila ang laging nag aabuno ng mga gastos dyan sa probinsya lalo na kapag may salot tulad ng bagyo. Umunlad ang Manila dahil sa geography nya, no mountains, with three huge rivers, huge lake, Manila bay is the best in world for docking ship. Even if we go back to old age and start all over again Manila will be the first to progress because business will seek a flat lands and lots of water, lakes.

Japan has a land area a bit larger than the Philippines, and is entirely an island nation. I guess the criteria for "Second Largest"is from the number of islands.
I dont think geography is the main problem. Look at Indonesia, they are made of several islands as well and yet their economy is doing well. Corruption I think is the main problem why the country economy is slow.
The root cause of corruption is due to lack of development in transportation system causing congestion to the economy. with lack of roads, trains and bridge development, increase in unemployment in a country then with Unemployment we have the rise in crime, causing those unemployed to do illegal basis such as drugs and smuggling, resorting to that chain reaction, corruption
Indonesia's infrastructure itself isn't that good, still inadequate and unbalanced. Only western part of the country have decent infrastructure, the rest still much lacking. That's why Indonesia initiated a lot of mega infrastructure projects on last 5 years to tackle this infrastructure inequalities.
The problem no infrastracture for high speed boat and ships. You dont need to build road on tne sea. RORO should be further improved all over the island should have RORO.
As days goes by, it will be harder to live especially those in small islands without proper roads and infrastructures since calamity/disasters can frequently appear caused by the climate change.
Philippines must invest in shipping building maker because Philippines is circling many well known shipping channels which is connected to the Hong Kong , Singapore , taipei , Malaysia and Jakarta and seas like South China sea And Pacific Ocean. And build more longest and deepest tunnels or bridges which inter connected through main islands or Municipal Airports for the minor islands and for the major islands like Palawan , Cebu , Davao , Zamboanga , etc. Is International Airports. It also important to boost military and defence for the seas and ocean to protect against countries and control the abnormal mass and illegal migrations which is also lead to the illegal drugs or illegal people slavery or prostitutes. It can also help to create more upgrades for the fishermen to support their livelihoods and ferries for transportation to other islands.
Why did the islands of the Philippines increase from 7,100 to make up 7,600 islands ? And the Philippines has 299,000 Sq.kms, why some infromation have 300,000 Sq.kms? 🤔
Its is because of new island discoveries over the years and also the number of islands depends on the tide more islands in low tide and less islands in high tide
Philippines Is Not The Smallest Country Philippines Is Bigger Than Cambodia Ireland Korea United Kingdom Macau Hongkong Singapore Brunei Nepal Bhutan Sri Lanka Armenia And Georgia
The solution is connect each island and the west should transfer all its Manufacturing Company from china to Philippines so the Global and the philippines will distance itself to China is a Win win foe allied forces
the problem is corruption from top to bottom…. if the included the whole population into its economic system, top to bottom would have to restructure its corruption…. I don’t think they’d let go of that.
Seems it's a problem to you,.but not for us Filipinos. Our geography makes our country more resilient. Economy is also part of geopolitics and much influenced by the western countries.

By current situation of the philippines i dont this country would ever be a developed country. Its more likely to be stuck in the MIDDLE CLASS TRAP. its just doesnt have the essential characteristics for development 1. National instability. High crime rate , drug war and it both have communist and islamic rebellion. 2. Electricity is extremely expensive for a developing country. Investors wont go here for manufacturing 3. Climate/natural disasters more than 20 typhoons per year , earthquakes volcanic eruption etc. Its harder for the farmers fisherman etc. to improve their life here 3. Constitution. Foreign Investment Act (R.A. 7042, 1991, amended by R.A. 8179, 1996) states that at least 60% of the business should be owned by a Filipino citizen, while the rest can be owned by the foreign investor. 5. Politics, its clan focus than ideological or performance of the politician. Most politicians are not college educated 6. Cultural factors filipinos are procrastinators and arent that good in making life decision for ex. Most filipinos would have kids before theyre financially stable , the "bahala na" (come what may) attitude, employee/servant mindset ETC.
