Is the Philippines a rich or poor country?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 июл 2024
- The Philippines, situated in the lower-middle-income category according to the World Bank, boasts a nominal GDP of $435.67 billion (2023 est.), ranking 34th globally. Adjusted for purchasing power parity, the GDP rises to $1.27 trillion, signaling a higher standard of living. Despite economic growth, challenges persist, with a high Gini coefficient reflecting income inequality and a Human Development Index ranking of 117th highlighting areas for improvement in health, education, and living standards. The archipelago's complex economic profile showcases characteristics of both developing and developed nations, revealing a continuous struggle to balance growth with addressing social disparities. The Philippines, under President Ferdinand Marcos Jr., is navigating a political transition, promising a new chapter in leadership. Economically, the country, classified as an emerging market, is undergoing a shift from agrarian to service- and manufacturing-oriented, with a growth rate of 7.6% in 2022. Population dynamics show a decline in growth rate and fertility, aiming for stability by 2050. While the economy demonstrates resilience, the challenge lies in reducing poverty rates and income inequality, addressing social disparities, and fostering inclusive development.

Why the Philippines has so much Foreign Reserves?
ruclips.net/video/JsnApSRkJoY/видео.html
Philippines is not a poor country, Philippines is a middle income country in the world, in fact Philippines is included in NIC- Newly Industrialized Countries. Philippines is one the fastest GDP growth on Earth & number 1 in South East Asia. Philippines is on track to become 1st world country.
True 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻💗💗
The Philippines is a poor country. They will not call it the sick man of Asia for nothing.
It is the only agricultural country in the world that imports its rice, onion, sugar, chicken, pork, beef, and even salt.
The main export of the Philippines is labor. They export slaves all over the planet Earth. If labor is needed on the moon they will export Filipino slaves.
Poverty is everywhere you will not fail to see it.
Developing country? Developing a disease of corruption. The Filipinos are only good at hiding their misery with a smile.
1 filipino can raise 12 children or more, philippines is rich you can live without money, house, beacause philippines is tropical country
The Philippines is the second biggest gold deposit behind Africa. But this untapped gold deposit is being set aside because of the environment destruction and the valueof human life before wealth.
Sustainable mining is a lie. Let these minerals be untapped forever.The environmental damage is not worth it.
Can you post the source of this info?
I don't remember anymore but I read it somewnere in the geographical survey and other surveys that I read it three times written by different experts. I know for fact that my ancestors have been trading gold with the Chinese merchants a thousand years ago long before Africa started mining their gold. Go the Ayala Museum to find more about the Philippine gold. Indeed, Philippines is so rich, but Filipino government are more concern about the environmental destruction and human life before wealth. @@rockyb1161

Australia has the highest unmined gold reserve. Philippines ranked 24th in the world for gold mining production which accounts for 2% of over all gold mined based on the 2022 statistics.
It may be poor based on certain things but it's not as bad as some of those really 3rd world African countries. PH economic status is the same level as Thailand, a little more than Vietnam, etc. Philippines, being the 34th economy is the world out of 195 counties is not a bad spot at all. China, Singapore, South Korea and Taiwan were all 3rd world countries back then, Philippines was even economically richer than those countries back in the day, it's just fortunate for them they have efficient politicians and are not always struck with calamities many times every year like the PH. Also, the world is round, right now, the U.S, Canada, U.K, France, Australia have growing homelessness, drug infested streets, increasing prices of real estate which everyone can not afford, etc. and a possibility of being a war zone in the future due to many geopolitical tensions, It's just a matter of time in which those countries will be degrading. U.S. has massive layoffs at the moment. PH on the other hand is improving and rising. China's economy right now is declining, Japan is facing an ageing society which will make it difficult for them to sustain their economy in the future. Europe is getting infested with extremist Islamists due to failure in stopping them from entering their borders trying to be politically correct, at least PH is heading the right direction, growing and growing, unlike those countries which are going backwards. lol. Remember this, nothing is ever permanent, nothing lasts forever, so enjoy things while you still can.PH is not a poor country, it is very rich in natural resources and human resources , it has all the means to be 1st world country, it's the mindset or mentality of our people is what's keeping it poor, but if directed properly what great achievements we can make. Also, being rich is not a guarantee of being happy, a lot of people from rich countries commit suicide bec they feel lacking and empty despite their wealth and abundance, at least with PH, people are happy despite the lack and I don't condone mediocrity. People should still aim for the best no matter what. It's simply being thankful for what you have, and continue to strive is what matters.
Great comment
This is what I mean, happiness is not about being rich or having many assets. Because Filipinos want to be rich was to help their relative and prove to those who belittle them that they can make it".
... PH economic status is the same level as Thailand, a little more than Vietnam, etc. ... >>> In 2022 Indonesia GDP 1,3 trillion USD, per capita 4700 USD,
Thailand GDP almost 500 billion USD, per capita almost 7500 USD, Vietnam GDP 400 billon USD, per capita almost 4100 USD, Philippines GDP 400 biliion USD, per capita 3600 USD. More to add and I would use only ID and TH to compare: HDI (Human Development Index) 2015 of PH was 0.698 (2021 = 0.699), ID - 2015 = 0.695 (please note that it was lower tha that of PH) and ID - 2021 = 0.705 (above that of PH), TH -2015 = 0.781 and TH -2021= 0.800/ Unemployment Rate (% 2021) PH = 7.8, ID = 6.5 , TH = 1.5/Inflation Rate (% 2021) PH = 3.9, ID = 1.6 , TH = 1.2/ International Reserve (US$ 2022) PH = 96,040,188,241, ID = 137,222,356,128, TH = 216,500,525,687/Export (US$ 2022) PH = 96,040,188,241, ID = 315,924,004,240, TH = 325,953,660,377/Tourism (Number of Arrivals 2020) PH = 1,483,000, ID = 4,053,000, TH = 39,916,000/Ease of doing Business Index (2020) PH = 62.83, ID = 69.58, TH = 80.09/Research&Development (R&D) Expenditure (% of GDP 2020) PH = 0.3, ID = 0.3, TH = 1.1. There are a lot more. Do your own research if needed. What I would say next you might listen or not. Doesn't matter because the result will be on you, not me. I once heard a foreigner said Filipino always be the last to know everything. Why? Because Filipino tends to lack knowledge about what others are doing, what are their plans, etc. You see only the info/data in a spot of time, yet you don't try to catch up with what they are doing and think you are on par/slightly below or even above them. Hence, before you know the latest info/data, they have already leave you to the level that to draw the same level with them on that issue would cost too much resources (time, money, etc.) PH and VN which has already passed you in many criteria in recent years is again another good sample. Yes the PH GDP growth is rising, however that's because you have lots of people (and unemployment). Add those labor to teh economy and the GDP will always rise, yet you will see that the growth of GDP/Capita which roughly measure the standard of living is not rising with the same rate of gross GDP (A very simeple sample: Economy A and B with both has 1 member with gross GDP =100. Suppose that economy A get another member with the same productivity and all things equal, their GDP would be 200 (100% RSING) yet their GDP/Capita is still 100. (0% rsing) Not to talk that many of the countries you mentioned has bigger base: 4% of 100 is less than 2.5% of 200. Same thing. It's called Base effect) And that's the reason why the PH, once the leading of Asian, falls behind others. The main problem is your attitude and mindset, not the corruption. Excuse or practicing crab mentality or lower others down when they do something better might make you less pain but it's improve nothing. Everything stays the same including the problem that cause your laggard. Being humble and appreciate when others do something better does not mean low self-esteem or lack of pride. On the contrary it's a must since to improve anything in life or on country level you must first admit that there are some mistakes and we can make them better, because you cannot change what others are doing but only yourselves, unless your pride is false pride to hide the inferiority complex inside.
@@bend.6091 SOME OF WHAT YOU'RE SAYING IS JUST A REPEAT WHAT I ALREADY SAID. AS I SKIMMED OVER YOUR DMB COMMENT, YOU AR ENOT MAKING ANY SENSE AT ALL. FILIPINOS ARE THE LAST THING TO KNOW? FILIPINOS ARE THE MOST SOCIAL MEDIA SAVY IN THE WORLD, AND FILIPINOS ARE EVERYWHERE IN THE WORLD, HOW CAN FILIPINOS BE THE LAST PEOPLE TO KNOW? ARE YOU EVEN SERIOUS? WHETHER YOU ARE A FILIPINO OR NOT, YOU DON'T REPRESENT THE WHOLE FILIPINO. YOU ARE TALKING A LOT BUT YOYU ARE NOT MAKING ANY SENSE, ALSO YOU'RE BARKING AT THE WRONG TREE. I AM MERELY SPEAKING FACTS HERE, EVERYTHING IM TALKING ABOUT IS BASED ON REALITY.
A crab mentality of other people who oppose the good will of the government. Everybody wants to rule, every leader has a criticism. You criticize if you and your family are not benefiting the project of the government. Don't ever use or even put your feet on the facilities of the government that are built for the public. You are poor because you are always asking for what the government can do for you. If you are patriotic do the things that will help the country grow rather than shouting on the street and march like an idiot.
Your correct
Nice argument.
Yes it ist true asking money from Others is easier than to make thier lives better. Many of them are very lazy and stupid. One of the reason why they are poor. Shit mentality. I am sad because phils. Is a nice country.
Only 0.0001% of Filipinos 🇵🇭 rally so what are you blabbing on about?
@@dumpdump-wz5nk they are literally not everywhere.
Okay, the Philippines is a poor country but we’re not really that poor because at least,
our politicians are rich. Very rich!
Ha ha ha
Based on my observations
Philippines will catch up and joining wealthy ASEAN countries.
The system of the Philippines is correcting it's path, start from cleaning environments, installing severage tp, reduced pollution and promote beautifications,lt can create opportunities and jobs for tourism as well.
implementing 1million housing each year and elevation of livelihoods may brought a lot change, a new Philippines.
What we need is to vote a good governance cos Phil is rich natural resources and its beautiful islands.
Soon Philippines will be prosperous since our economy is a fighter without producing gas and exploits natural resources...
Think positive and it brought you a good vibes.
and PH is trying to decentralized its economic zones now. Manila had become a nightmare because of too much centralization. most of Filipinos go there to work now those opportunities are started to be distributed to Zambales, Tarlac, Pampanga ... lifting the congestion in manila
@@KSmifune actually Philippines need that changes in order to lure investments that could create millions of jobs, what we want is higher salaries so that people can saving money for SMe to start and elevate livelihoods.
According to a news American businesses are going to put up businesses in provinces, low income regions. If this project be materialize then a chance for provinces and to establish one nation one salary policy.
Or they can work abroad for a chance to get higher salary.
Than to work with local conglomerates that no heart with local who made them wealthy....
International companies in Philippines pay more than local companies.
The Philippines is not poor, The Philippines is middle income economy country on earth & included in (NIC) - Newly Industrialized Countries along with Malaysia,Thailand and Indonesia..Philippines is the fastest GDP growth in ASEAN.. Philippines has dynamic & strong fundamental economy.
Right 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻💗💗
We're still in lower-middle income country.. we still need efforts to be a middle income country.
@@JeanAriesM Philippines is already a middle income country
@@TenCo-by9pf ok, thanks for the info kabayan.
Wage is not enough for basic goods .
Philippines is a very lower middle income country.
And Unfortunately it will not be change forever.
How sad.
Why are there so many cheap street foods in the Philippines???..the answer is because the poor working - class cannot affordably go to high class society eating establishment, 5-🌟 star hotels, jollibee, McDonald's,the mall's restaurant, etc.etc.etc....their$ 4 to $6 a day wages can't allow them to eat at expensive restaurant....for sure...cheerio....GOD Bless...Giorgio R. Messina...
The people are poor not the country. Human development and corruption is one of the huge problem.
It has untapped wealth, and the existing wealth which is higher than Singapore only goes to a small group of people rather than the masses.
The masses' fault for being dvmb. If you give them capital they'd start pathetic businesses like fishball, turon, or other crap 💩 that only their fellow poor would buy.
Aim high Philippines 🇵🇭 😊❤
As HIGH as a helicopter can fly..
The wealth gap is too great! I am very sad about the large number of slums.
Where is the large number of slum??? Stop watching western medias documentaries!!! The slums in manila is just pockets!!! Not as what the western media is projecting!! In bangkok I was surprised Bec western media is projecting a positive image for thailand!! But I saw there in bangkok one of the worst slum area that I ever seen!! Worst than what I saw in manila!!! There in the canals of bangkok!!! And 5 more slum communities I saw in bangkok!! In the railways!!! But did the western media show it??? They only show the positives of thailand!!! Did they expose that in thailand there are so many scammers?????? But in the case of the phil they show only the negatives!!! Not only the negatives!!! They exaggerates the negatives!!!! They give image that phil is full of slum areas!!! Which is not true!!!! Criticize how Filipino drives!!! But my god they don't criticize how the Thai and vietnamese drives!!! These people drives like they are in the wild wild west!!!! It total chaos!!! Ten times worse than pilipino drivers!!!! In Vietnam they don't stop and slow down in intersections!!!! You will be shock on how they drive!! But western media don't see it!!! They only see the pilipino drivers!!!!!
FYI slum in Phillippines is not large it's only tiny and eradicating now because of housing projects of Philippines govt research before comment not only blah blah..
you don't consider the country rich if there are corruptions in every gov't sectors from top to the bottom unless you eradicate corruptions then you can say if Phil is rich that is rate of poverty is low or zero.
The US has massive corruption, does that mean they are poor?
One thing you can notice that some provinces are rich and some are poor. The Economy is not centralized and fragmented into different style of governance.
Some people in Makati has better living standards than Manila. It is because the Philippine City is acting very independent and would not cooperate to the Philippines National Government.
It's heaven and hell. Heaven for the corrupt and hell for the poor!
No!!!! Heaven for the resourceful!!! Driven!!! Ambitious!!
Exactly.
The mentality of the poor is government is there to make them rich!!! Dole out mentality!! The job of the government is to create a good economic environment!! It's up to the people to take advantage of the opportunities!! But the poor what is they'll just sleep and the government will hand them money!!!!!!!!
@@GaryUy-bt1wxTotal BS.

So if I want to go to a concert in a helicopter, PAID for by THE PEOPLE,, I SHOULD BECOME RESOURCEFUL???...
Great advice...
Philippines, in terms of economy, is never poor. In fact, the country performs better than a number of European nations. Despite the great economy of the Philippines, the people look poor and are poorer as compared to the citizens of some countries in Europe where people enjoy ritzy, good lives despite having weaker economy.
If majority of the people are poor then it's a poor country,if majority of the people are rich then it's a rich country
And what countries. Majority Is rich 😂
The universe gives back what your project. If you think it's poor, it will stay poor. If you work hard and envision a prosperous Philippines, it will be so. The poor class of Filipinos need to update their mentality to abundance.
Not goma happen. Those dam facts are too busy watching Batang Quiapo
Philippines🇵🇭is one of a Rich country in the world👍in God❤️🔥blessings..💖💞💝🙏🙏🙏
Poor dahil until now madami padin umaasa sa ayuda ng gobyerno 😅tapos ung gobyerno di matulungan mga magsasaka.. parati nalang my tinatapon na gulay at mahal na bigas...
I promise mga kabayan i will make millions and give to the poor in our country. Mark my words 🙏🙏🙏 God will help me
If you give me q choice to live in some western countries and the Philippines?.. I would still choice Philippines..
Happiness and fun in Philippines is very different in some western countries.
My family just earn a minimum wage which is little amount when compared to Western nations wage but..
The bond between our family and relative are strong. When there is a special occasion like Christmas, everyone would gather having a family Christmas party which is really fun, we would sometimes go to public beach while bringing our foods, singing when there is a birthday.. I don't think that this type of freedom and fun is available in other nations. The freedom of speech and things to do are much more lax and not that strict.. if you just stare for a sec to someone in western countries you might sue for harassment which is compared to Philippines is not that absurd. You could get in jail by addressing a girl a Ma'am, by judging her gender. That is something much more absurb and lastly, I don't want to become an atheist..
Corruption? I don't think that Philippines government is that corrupt, it was only the foolish Filipino's way of blaming the government why they are poor.
Philippines had a high population of aroung 117,000,000 which is considered as a high population and with a geographic area of 300,000 km which is mostly composed of islands. Trade needed to go through ports and logistic will cause more. It was nearly impossible to connect all islands and I think this hinders the nations growth, much more the nation was prone ofmany disasters such as typhoon and earthquake this explained why the development of the nation is slow. If the nation was not an archipelagic then the nation wouldve an easier time to develop.
Are you employed by the marcos propaganda machine??

@@SlimjimMK11 No I just believe in a better Philippines. Technocratic reform not crab mentality.
@@chrisk7118 what do you mean?, Paid by what?..
Phippines is Pooorrr look at countryside you can see what is the reality!!
When 90% of the population is relatively poor, the country is a POOR country.
The Philippines was the 2nd country in the Far East to have a national railroad and the first to have an international airline, the Phhilippine Airlines.
South Korea was not even an independent country until after the WW2, yet it’s pretty much industrialized decades ago.
Some people say the geography is a factor. But Japan is also made up of several islands much like the Philippines.
Singapore and South Korea are not made of several scattered islands as some observers point out, but resource wise the Philippine islands are resourse rich.
My thinking is that the Filipino people should be educated to put into political positions only leaders who could lessen the corruptions in all levels of the Philippine society if not totally eradicating it completely, if that is even possible.
This RUclips/Video is about poverty around the world. ** /Poverty Rate by country 2022 /Countries Ranked by Poverty Rate/Countries Comparison.** Even the riches countries have poverty like USA, Luxembourg, the UK, and many more.
THE POLITECIAN HAVE BIG WAGES AND THE POOR COMPARE TO A FRUIT LIKE ONE MANGO AND THE ONE PIECE OF RICE THAT THE COMPARESON, THE KICK ON THE POOR THIS CROCODILE STILL GRABBING MORE UNDER THE TABLE 😢😢😢
Poor? But can be able to rent the mighty military, like USA, Japan,Australia , france, Britain, Germany and many
What do you think, a lot of soldiers from, other country to join exercises today, do you think its free? How many Fighter jets, guns and ammunition, aircraft carriers, bombers, all military assets, do you think its free?
The Philippines is still poor, why? Because the electorate still votes into power people like BBM, the son of the late Ferdinand Marcos.
Of course, the Philippines is a rich country. One of the fastest growing economy in ASEAN and the world. The phi is also consider as a newly industrialized country, that means, that the Philippines has already passed from being a developing country.
It IS Not easy to Accept the reality of being poor many of the pilipinos were hiding it through thier loughfing
Poor people i am pity for them.
Marcos Admin is doing all to continue what the previous administion's legacy PH will be upper middle income in 2025 however PH will still suffer poverty due to the local government corruptions unfortunately corruption is endemic unless if the National government change its system to federalism parliamentary govt system.
Nonsense! A parliamentary or federal system of government is not the answer to the problems of the country. Such a system will only lead to a weak central government and a fragmented country, which will give hostile foreign powers, like China, an opportunity to take over the country piecemeal!
When every portion of the government, from barangays to the palace,, is OWNED by the same families every election ....
NOTHING IS GOING TO CHANGE..
I think replace the population with foreigners who will be less corrupt and can help build better infrastructure.

Should be rich if they not taken a lot of loot and corruptions!
I feel guilty, because I make near first-world level incomes ($2500 per month, nominally, after taxes) and that stretches a lot more in a poverty-stricken country like PH way more than it ever would in a first world country. In a way, low wages of my fellows benefit me.
Wages are low because low skilled workers compete with millions of other low skilled workers
