Has recession hit the U.S.? What does it mean for the Phils?

[Altis6453]

The effects of the US's projected economic slowdown on RP should be studied in light of:

1. A projected decrease in trade volume between RP-US (owing to weak economy)
2. Whether a Republican or Democrat will win the presidential elections (traditionally, a Republican president is more beneficial to RP)
3. Whether the slowdown will also affect other markets who are dependent on labor imported from RP (this should be a major concern)
4. Whether regional economies and currencies will still remain strong

I guess our economic managers will be tossing and turning thinking about these factors for the next few months.

Real estate here is being affected na.

Madami US-based pinoys bumibili real estate dito either for retirement or investment.

US-based pinoys are having cashflow problems so they are cancelling their deals here.

[jackbauer]

ibig sabihin kaya nito magbebenta ng pamura mga US-based pinoys ng real estate nila

People here did'nt bothered by that...they're having some good times at all
if you notice the stats, still thousands upon thousands coming-in daily legally not to mentioned the illegals...pati problema ng mundo sinasalo, remember the phrase "GOD BLESSED AMERICA".

[uls]

syempre madami parin tao gusto pumunta sa States.

Kung galing ba naman ung tao sa bansa na ang bahay niya made of light materials or mud, at wala sila running water o matinong banyo....

Para sa kanila, napakaganda ng States.

Di ba po "God Bless America" ba yon? Pero kayo po ang eksperto dahil nandiyan po kayo.

+1 kay Uls. Diba po ang karamihan ng migration naman ay dahil sa Ekonomiya? Dahil pangit po ang tingin nila sa lagay nila sa kanilang sariling bansa kaya umaalis dahil akala nila magkakarun ng magandang buhay sa Amerika. Ask ko lang po. Kung padami ang immigrants diba masama din eto para sa Amerika? O mabuti dahil may source na sila ng murang trabahador na skilled. Tulad ng over-qualified na nars.

... Tulad ng over-qualified na nars.

This I agree with you... I like.

Time na ba change dollar to Euro? Bagsak na ba talaga ang US? Susunod rin ba tayo babagsak? Dahil sumusunod lang tayo lagi sa uso ng US!

Noong panahon ng mga indians,cowboys at buffalos ay God Bless America then after that "God Blessed America" na ...actually highly skilled din ang mga americans sabayan pa ng hi-tech nilang mga gamit...about nurses here,
very minimal lang talaga ang mga americans na kumukuha ng nursing at teaching courses kasi daw mababa lang kita nito at nag retired na ang iba
kaya kailangan ng federal gov't na punuan ito...U.S. is like a machine,if the machine broke-down, we all broke down [who will police the world?] but let me tell you...they will not
succumbed to that, ibang klase ang kanilang characteristics...still the
undisputed the great super power...
