Is the increase in local investments sufficient to make up for the shortfall in FDIs?

Kags, here is proof na nakakagimbal talaga.

central bank intervention is unsustainable

bsp doesn't have infinite dollars

bsp has to raise interest rates to defend the peso

but that'll make money more expensive

It depends. It the economy eliminates the greedy people kagad or those who are responsible for this mess without affecting our overall economic status. Eh di okey

who are these people? The car dealers/ salesmen / bankers group, The fastfood chains execs, and thise who allowed the TNVS and Public transport to grow so big without regulation.

Yun kasi ang nangyari eh, almost everyone are enticed to buy cars that they cant afford therefore affecting their purchasing power sa mga daily needs, one of it is fastfood, kasi fastfodd is instant fuel for our working population. Eh kaya lang nagmahal na wala pa nutrition so how are our workers gonna perform on optimum level, and then there are so many public transports congesting us kahit anong oras na ng day . Workers cant even get a simple leisure commute/ walk and a simole errand that takes 10 minutes before naging 1 hour.

All of that a great toll to the worker which comprises 90% of our economic output. So productivity and performance go down. What do the average worker do given all these, naghananao sya ng panandalian aliw sa smartphone nya, which is equally unproductive now. Kita mo naman tirahan ng tirahan sa social media, dashcam, viral news, etc. etc.

all contributing to low performance, people like that Pia Ranada who recorded her experience with the PSG , talaga naman mawawalan na ng motivation ang worker, coz those things can stress a worker na naghahanap lang naman ng releif sa smartphones.

Wala eh. All roads lead to something talaga na nakakatakot for all of us. We were given a chance to grow these past few years with all those money coming in, foreign investments, ofw remittance, pero ano ang pinaggawa natin?

So i guess its too late, retribution time na,

Nag-korek na car industry, bagsak ang sales since January 2018. That is bad in terms of investment inflow but that could also be good if consumer spending is diverted to other areas of the economy

We live in a country of opportunists talaga. Blame the execs who zero in on areas that are crucial to our working population's welfare. Particularly food, transportation and healthcare.

These execs even if graduate pa yan ng UP and Ateneo and their bosses are happy wih them coz they make money for the company are a disease in the entire system that we are in.

It's easy to pinpoint these people, they are the fat ones. Nowadays, fat people only use the brain and analysis pero magtimpla lang ng kape hindi matayo sa computer nila.

Imagine a burger steak na almost P100 na, and thst is not even 100% meat. Tsk tsk and what about shawarma or burrito na laman sisig na dinurog from old burger beef or chicken na dinurog from old stock fried chicken , I mean if the middle easterners and mexicans find about this, how these execs destroyed their staple foods,

Eliminate - so like kill all car dealers, sales men, bankers, fast food chain execs and everyone involved with grab and uber? That's going to ensure the economy doesn't "tank"?

Stay hungry. Stay humble.

Yes , ive studied the ups and downs of several financial crisis that happened since the 70s. The oil crisis of 73, the housing crisis of the 80s up to the fall of berlin wall, the 1997 asian financial crisis and the 2008 financial crisis.

Alam mo kung san ma-attribute ang fall ng global economy, lagi yan ang may kagagawan mah top execs ng mga sensitive industries, whether banking, housing, food, oil and power.

There is a new disturbing field ngaun na binabanatan nila and that is
health industry. Dengvaxia, vacines, cancer. Anything na mapapagasots ka ng malaki na continuous, these are the true economic saboteurs. easy to spot them, follow the greed.

Greed is one seven deadly sins that can lead to trouble,

So this upcoming crisis that we are moving into, blame on the greed that have happened in the past 3 years pf our progress, how can we claim that our economy in the past yellow admin is going up in terms of ratings, tapos ngaun wala man lang plate number, walang roads, and the mrt system is failing. Nag-progress nga tayo and so therefore many people flocked in from the provicnes kasi dami tarabaho, pero tapos walang mrt or efficent transport system

Tsk tsk san napunta yun mga kinita na yun that they were so proud of in those years of their rule, bat hinde man lang ma-alleviate eto apocalypse of congestion ngaun. One word Greed!

and do take note greed is not exclusive to money lang, yun mga sugapa sa fame or vanity like lagi pa-goody goody, papogi, like these yellow people. Thats also greed. And may retribution din yan . You cant claim that what you always did is the good thing for our countru since 1986, and why are we in this mess? ang labo diba, pero sa mga taong to meron sila isang eacape plan, pass the blame. Tinde noh. You say you are responsible but not accountable, yan ang talagang double standard. To the millennials and gen z, kudos to all of you for seeing thru this facade. Support our MyPres
