Among ASEAN countries, only Laos and Cambodia have a lower GDP per capita than the Philippines.And only Myanmar has more people living below the national poverty line. Fighting poverty should be the MOST important focus of Filipino politicians, while education should be the most desirable agenda for parents. Good luck to you all!

    My experience over the last year of creating a construction company that now employs over 40 people is that the Filipino culture lacks critical thinking in all aspects of life. I am shocked that I have had to teach grown men how to do the basic skills of construction even when they claim to be "skilled" workers. This week I had to teach a group of workers use the new shop vac. There is very little interest in improving their skills or obtaining new knowledge. Over the past year it has taken me sorting through many employees to come up with my core group. I am also shocked how people just leave for no reason. I have heard such reasons as "I have to go plant corn" have to take care of my cow, etc. I pay wages that are higher than any construction company here hoping to increase the loyalty to the company but it has been a long battle. I think that we have turned the corner and we will be showing our beautiful new homes in about 6 weeks. Oh what a book I could write.

    Hi Pea, this is why I rock with you, your compassion and humility is your crown, you are using your blessings and platform to help and inspire others to rise above their misfortune.
    Politics, corruption, and greed are the main causes behind the lack of economic growth and prosperity.
    I’ve seen videos of people in Philippines living in poverty, what’s so sad is that, you see the people laughing and smiling, the kids run around playing, as without a care in the world.
    For a person living in favorable conditions, can see that these conditions are not acceptable for human function.
    Despite their limited resources, their spirit and ability to survive speaks volumes to their character.
    You may not be born privileged, but if you are taught morals, values and principles, then your moral compass will always prevail.
    Thanks Pea for not turning a blind eye to this important topic 😊

    I married a Filipina 22 years ago and all is well. We live in Vancouver and we do some supporting of several relatives who are in a bad way medically…. We don’t do full support but we help some here and there. We don’t help any other relatives but I must say almost all of them are working or employed….. I totally see the situation where people give too much money to family and the members take advantage by not working as much as they could
    It’s straight forward to be a farmer and sell produce or sari sari store or labour in a construction company etc. easier than in my city… that’s for sure

    So cool! I hope this works out. Beyond work ethic and product, four key factors (I'm sure you know):
    1. No dipping into the seed corn, no matter what. Always need enough money to buy tomorrow's products.
    2, 3, 4. Location, location, location! Great locations will mostly already be occupied, so finding a location that is good enough will be the next challenge. I'm sure you've given it thought. Can't wait to see the results.
    This is almost the end of the rainy season, so timing is good. You are already encouraging ex-pats to choose Dumaguete, so the local economy will be better than further out in the province. Your channel is providing some free advertising, but most viewers are far, far away. Best luck to al involved.

    I gave my Filipino wife 5,000 peso. She gave it to her mother who then buy supplies for her sorry sorry store. BUT the prices the mother was charging for her goods was crazy below normal, Prices so low once she sold the items there was no money left over to purchase new items to restock the store. Selling things below cost to buy again for restock. Their brains just are not wired to be self sustained making new money.

      That generalisation is not true. I have helped several into business and they have done okay. Supporting something that is at their level usually helps. I think it's useful to figure out where they are at. Have they had a sari-sari before or have zero business experience. If the later...
      Did you teach them or check with them on what they buy for and what they sell for, and what profit is. Or that cash on hand is not profit. So can't be spent. Just basic business skills. I think understanding what is profit is important. So if family ask for help, they know which money they can use.
      Also with a Sari-sari, how do they say no to family members who expect to be given foods. And lastly dealing with giving away goods on credit.

      I lived there for a while and it always frustrated me that every business seemed to be foreign owned and the way they look up to the US so much, it's ridiculous! They begged Bush for financial help when he visited but he snubbed them, very humiliating. They should be doing as well as Thailand with tourism but the corruption means the funding to develop those areas end up in the pockets of officials and government. They need to tackle corruption before anything gets better for the people, but it's so deeply ingrained in their psyche and history I can't see it happening.

    Pea, i love watching you helping people. I dont know if you have ever discussed or tried to encourage birth control. So many of the filipinos have too many children and whats truly sad is they can’t even provide for themselves much less 5 children or more. I realize that their are a lot of Catholics but they think its ok to have same sex marriage but not stop a crazy population explosion. Maybe they should provide money, food and housing for their parishioners who have so many children. Watch how quickly the Catholic Church would approve birth control when they start paying the bills for these little children

Very difficult to grow a business that's scalable unless you're doing something online.

      The government corruption is largely a result of the Philippines being a dual vassal state of both China and the US. Both countries view it as an unofficial de facto colony. The Filipino government elites know that if they look too closely at the corruption (which largely benefits US and Chinese companies) then the CIA or CCP wil look to "spread democracy" or "reclaim historical territory". The truth is that colonization has never really ended in the Philippines. It shifted from an official regime to shadow colonization via puppet regime.

    Which country wants to invest in a country with unstable government policy? Investors need long term security and a favorable return for their investments.
