83 4 5 A SOCIAL CONTRACT WITH THE FILIPINO PEOPLE “A Commitment to Transformational Leadership” H.E. BENIGNO S. AQUINO III President of the Republic of the Philippines 16-Point PLATFORM OF GOVERNMENT POINT No. 10 which is migration-related: X X X X “From a government that treats its people as an export commodity and a means to earn foreign exchange, disregarding the social cost to Filipino families to a government that creates jobs at home, so that working abroad will be a choice rather than a necessity, and when its citizens do choose to become OFWs, their welfare and protection will still be the government’s priority.” 4 5 6 7 MESSAGE FROM THE SECRETARY It is my pleasure to present the Annual Report of the Commission on Filipinos Overseas (CFO) for the years 2014- 2015. International migration is a dynamic process that brings about continual changes in the internal and external environment. It is therefore fitting that our response to current migration trend should likewise be dynamic, as we see fit in the light of intensifying globalization.

  • Diaspora Philanthropy: the Philippine Experience
    Diaspora Philanthropy: The Philippine Experience ______________________________________________________________________ Victoria P. Garchitorena President The Ayala Foundation, Inc. May 2007 _________________________________________ Prepared for The Philanthropic Initiative, Inc. and The Global Equity Initiative, Harvard University Supported by The William and Flora Hewlett Foundation ____________________________________________ Diaspora Philanthropy: The Philippine Experience I . The Philippine Diaspora Major Waves of Migration The Philippines is a country with a long and vibrant history of emigration. In 2006 the country celebrated the centennial of the first surge of Filipinos to the United States in the very early 20th Century. Since then, there have been three somewhat distinct waves of migration. The first wave began when sugar workers from the Ilocos Region in Northern Philippines went to work for the Hawaii Sugar Planters Association in 1906 and continued through 1929. Even today, an overwhelming majority of the Filipinos in Hawaii are from the Ilocos Region. After a union strike in 1924, many Filipinos were banned in Hawaii and migrant labor shifted to the U.S. mainland (Vera Cruz 1994). Thousands of Filipino farm workers sailed to California and other states. Between 1906 and 1930 there were 120,000 Filipinos working in the United States. The Filipinos were at a great advantage because, as residents of an American colony, they were regarded as U.S. nationals. However, with the passage of the Tydings-McDuffie Act of 1934, which officially proclaimed Philippine independence from U.S. rule, all Filipinos in the United States were reclassified as aliens. The Great Depression of 1929 slowed Filipino migration to the United States, and Filipinos sought jobs in other parts of the world.

  • Why Filipino Migrants Remit? Evidence from a Home-Host Country Matched Sample
    DEPARTMENT OF ECONOMICS ISSN 1441-5429 DISCUSSION PAPER 09/12 Why Filipino Migrants Remit? Evidence from a Home-Host Country Matched Sample James Ted McDonald* and Ma. Rebecca Valenzuela† Abstract This paper uses a unique matched survey dataset to directly test remittance models using information from both remittance-sending and remittance-receiving households. Our results show that the decision to remit is strongly affected by both home and host country factors with altruism motive as an ubiquitous underlying element. We find that men’s behaviour is mainly influenced by their capacity to remit, not so for women. Further we show that job-to-skill mismatching is widespread among Filipinos overseas and depresses women’s remittances by over fifty per cent. Clearly, the economic and social losses associated with this kind of labour market outcome are significant. JEL: J240, J610, O150 Keywords: Remittances, Immigrants, * James Ted McDonald Department of Economics, University of New Brunswick, Canada † Dr. Rebecca Valenzuela Email: [email protected] Department of Economics, Monash University, VIC, Australia © 2012 James Ted McDonald and Rebecca Valenzuela All rights reserved.

INTRODUCTION Migrant workers from all over the world send remittances to their families in their countries of origin. These generally refer to monies that are transmitted to households by workers who find employment outside their home economies. Since remittances directly increase the income of a migrant‟s family back home, they have become a vital source of financial support for meeting daily consumption needs.

  • Earth Day Marks Need for Collective Efforts on Solving Crises by Ma
    UPPE PAGE BANNE EDITORI CARTOO 1 R AL N STORY STORY PAG LOWE Strategic Communication 1/1 25 April 2020 and Initiatives Service Page Date Earth Day marks need for collective efforts on solving crises By Ma. Cristina Arayata April 22, 2020, 7:18 pm https://www.pna.gov.ph/articles/1100699 Image grabbed from DENR's Facebook page MANILA – Every April 22, Earth Day is being observed to demonstrate support for environmental protection. But with the coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) pandemic plaguing millions of people around the world, collective action among countries and stakeholders is of paramount importance. For the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) Secretary Roy Cimatu, comprehensive and concerted action is a must. In his Earth Day message shared on DENR's Facebook page, he said survival is at stake in both Covid-19 and climate change. "The urgency of the need for concerted and comprehensive action, without waiting for the problem to peak or to impact millions more of people, is the same," he added. With the Covid-19 pandemic, Cimatu said now is the perfect time for people to ponder the need for collective action. "The damage from Covid-19 and climate change bring about destruction and chaos to any nation. On the one hand, with Covid-19, we are faced with an immediate gripping fear of losing more lives; on the other hand, with climate change, we are faced with rising sea levels, saline intrusion into aquifers, droughts, floods, and the results will impact billions of people, as well as biodiversity.
