Problem is a lot of Pinoy businesses rely on overseas clients so these businesses are affected. Just the other day the Asian Fedex hub in Subic left the Philippines so that's another set of unemployed people looking for jobs. Hope this "crisis" would turn out to be business opportunities for enterprising people here.

What is the government doing to help them? Is the government helping the poor or helping the rich to get richer. How about the thousands of people who work for Panasonic who lost/about to lose their jobs?

Im pretty much sure since i left the Phil..there are still no changes in the government....just different people but the same corrupt officials...man this problem about the poor and the rich is still the same up to now...Fedex just pulled out their Philippine Hub and move to china...why?? because cheaper labor?? That leaves another 500 unemployed workers...but the funny thing is...while they were being interviewed they were all laughing and smiling hahahahaha

Amen, Kabalen. Someone started it, and all we did (Fafa Oca and I) was throw the Yellow B.S. flag.
