For OFWs: Are you willing to start a business in the Phils.?

[juntzo]

Let's have a poll para sa mga OFWs na willing na magbusiness sa Pinas. Kasama dito yong mga nareach na ang dream nila sa ibang bayan at yong mga nagsisimula palang.

Hindi naman sa pagyayabang (kasi konti lang naman naipon ko sa abroad!), I came back here sa Pinas to setup a small business. So far so good (knock on wood) and I'm helping employ good professionals. It's my little way of helping my Philippines my Philippines!

So here's the question for OFWs: Are you willing to go back to the Philippines to invest in a business after saving some money? Please vote and if you can tell us about the work you do abroad. Please be honest and no kalokohan posts please.

i think the phils is a great place to start a small business. relatively young economy, a country that is growing and starting to establish its place in the asian economy...imagine how much opportunity there will be once people become more affluent and spend more.

i personally don't have a nose for business so i wouldn't establish a business regardless of where it is....but i might invest in the right person with the right idea... :idea:

ehem ehem empy, wag ka na lumayo. and if you want inputs, my first suggestion is to get a franchise of M.Venus there and bring it here. para pag dating mo dito, di na tayo punta dun ********. ika nga, patronize your own.

p.s. lahat pa ng OFW tsikoteers na uwi sa pinas e customer natin

I am willing to go back and start a business. However, I still do not have an idea on what business to start..plus I am still figuring out how much savings and capital should I accumulte first before going back.

There's a lot of risk involve in setting up a business..Especially a business wherein one could make money for the investor and not just providing employment for the unemployed.

I am a Chemical Engineer and I work as a Process Engineer in a Petrochemical Plant.

Ahhh ok.... maybe they're not OFWs.

I would, and hire candidates WITHOUT having to provide the following information on their application/bio-data:

1. PHOTO
2. AGE or birth date information
3. GENDER
4. Religion
5. No requirement of having a pleasing personality
6. No college degree required as long as you can pass my competency test appropriate for the position applied

As much as possible, manufacturing business which will be geared towards our squatter residents. A business which could be employee owned as the business progress.

Then, and only then we can ACTUALLY and REALLY HELP BUILD the Philippines.

And maybe, just maybe they could be closer to reality of being able to afford a unit from one of those SO CALLED SKYSCRAPERS.

tama, magtayo tayo ng branch ng M. Venus sa Pilipinas where we can hire candidates with pleasing personality. hopefully there is space in Karding's skyscraper to house our business

ang galing mo kapatid.

who was implying that you NEED [kailangan] to be an OFW to have a business in the Phils? M54 Powered, ikaw ba may pakana nito? :evillaugh

I dont have a business, I wonder how do I manage to survive...

Maybe not a lot of people are as fortunate as you VtEC, who possibly didnt have to be an OFW to establish a business. If that's the case, congrats kapatid and you may also start your own thread geared toward the locals. FOR LOCALS, ARE YOU WILLING TO START A BUSINESS IN THE PHILS? or DO YOU NEED TO HAVE A BUSINESS TO SURVIVE? :bwahaha:

This thread was a very simple query amongst OFW who made a fortune and thinking about establishing a business in P.I.

keyword of the day: WILLING and OFW
not-keyword of the day: NEED and LOCALS

:rofl:

[chua_riwap]

Ganda ito........

Baka ma-close ito ah.

[juntzo]

cool lang mga sirs!

baka nga ma-close tong thread.. gusto ko lang marinig ang mga opinions and plans ng mga OFWs natin na katulad ko. Baka may magandang idea pa sila na matutunan o kaya naman may questions sila at magkatulungan tayo.

Hindi naman kasi pwedeng all your life OFW ka.... not unless siguro kung immigrant kana at wala kanang balak umuwi sa Pinas.

:peace:

[chrisboy]

yes. i dont want to be an employee all my life.

[akal]

Yes, but after 10-12 years pa. Bata pa naman ako. I will be on my early 50's at that time. Kailangan ko muna patapusin mag-aral ang mga anak ko. I'm a civil engineer pero gusto ko mag agri-business.

hi juntzo,

sa unang paragraph mo, i'm an OFW on leave since 3weeks ago.. sinagot ko na din ang poll "yes, but no idea what kind of business.." i'm about to quit na siguro pag ala ng mapamasukan ulit..i'm worth naman ng kunti at tapos ng magpaaral ng mga anak which may be considered dream fulfillment in a way..

sa 2nd para mo, baka pede pumasok/umaplay sa small business mo o di kaya makibakas nalang..hehe..ala talga akong alam na negosyo..

sa 3rd para mo, nasagot kona yong poll..i work in oil & gas industry abroad under project mgt support team..
