Philippines: 10, 20, 50 years from now (cont 2...)

The rich and affluent will find themselves uncomfortable living in the Philippines as criminals will roam around and rob them in broad daylight. There will be horrible murders too. Some of them will arm themselves, but it will make matters worse. Law and order will be a major issue.

The Philippine government will try to calm down its people by increasing the basic salary of every worker, but this has turned off investors, and they are forced to look for cheap labor in other Asian countries like China, Vietnam, Indonesia, and Thailand. Unemployment will rise.

People will be upset and are forced to move out. Mass exodus of Filipinos are going to Asian countries to work. Many will die as they are crossing other territories as refugees, some will drown, or killed by security.
Filipinos are losing hope and will go back to provinces to plant on the rice fields.

My Adventures at Work part 3

During work tenure at Philippines, I learned many things. I was very surprised that we are more technically competent even with industrialized countries.

Imagine, I told foreign companies,

"THAT WE MADE SOMETHING OUT OF NOTHING."

We retrofitted existing plants and machineries, especially obsolete ones. I have worked in an ice plant factory as a technician. Compressors are there since World War II, still it runs today.

We even produced spare parts for expensive machineries. Instead of ordering it from the manufacturer, which is time consuming end expensive, we can make our own.

Filipino skilled personnel are the best workers if compensated properly. Too bad they are leaving because the pay is not good in their own country. Workers who work hard in nation building are building nations of others instead of their own.

So I went to abroad as well. Thats my next story.
