Macroeconomy A. 2018 Gross Regional Domestic Product (GRDP) Among the 17 regions of the country, MIMAROPA ranked 2nd— together with Davao Region and next to Bicol Region—in terms of growth rate. Among the major economic sectors, the Industry sector recorded the fastest growth of 11.2 percent in 2018 from 1.6 percent in 2017. This was followed by the Services sector, which grew by 9.3 percent in 2018 from 8.7 percent in 2017. The Agriculture, Hunting, Fishery and Forestry (AHFF) sector also grew, but at a slower pace at 2.6 percent in 2018 from 3.0 percent in 2017 (refer to Table 1). Table 1.

Mining and quarrying recorded the highest growth among industry subsectors and among major sub-industries, posting a significant turnaround from negative 5.5 percent in 2017 to 5.7 percent in 2018. This may be attributed to the increased average price of nickel at the world market by 26.5 percent from US$4.68 per pound in 2017 to US$5.92 per pound. The quantity of directly shipped nickel ore and production of mixed nickel-cobalt sulfide also increased by 9.3 percent and 5.1 percent, respectively. The construction subsector also grew faster at an impressive 26.1 percent in 2018 from 17.1 percent in 2017. Manufacturing subsector slightly improved to 7.2 percent from 4.9 percent. The Services sector, which remained the biggest contributor to the region’s economy with 47.8 percent share in 2018, grew by 9.3 percent from 8.7 percent in 2017. Only two of its subsectors registered accelerated growth: transportation, storage, and communication with 7.5 percent from 7.3 percent in 2017; and public administration and defense, compulsory social security with a remarkable 15.2 percent from 8.7 percent in 2017. This may be attributed to the implementation of the third tranche of the salary standardization law, increase in base pay of the military and uniformed personnel, conditional cash transfers and rice subsidies under the Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program, and reduction of income taxes brought by the implementation of TRAIN Law Package 1. The AHFF sector grew by 2.6 percent in 2018. This was, however, slower than the 3.0 percent growth recorded in 2017. The increase was due to the growth of agriculture and forestry subsector, though at a slower pace. Fishing subsector rebounded from negative 1.9 percent in 2017 to 0.6 percent in 2018. This may be attributed to increased value of production and higher demand for aquaculture products. 2 B. Prices, Consumer Price Index (CPI), and Inflation Rate MIMAROPA’s average inflation rate eased to 3.9 percent in 2019 from 5.1 percent in 2018. This was, however, higher than the national average inflation rate of 2.5 percent. All provinces registered lower inflation rates, except Romblon. Occidental Mindoro registered the highest inflation rate with 4.8 percent. This was followed by Romblon and Palawan with 4.2 percent and 4.1 percent, respectively (refer to Figure 1). Lower inflation rates may be attributed to the continued anti- inflationary measures implemented by the government to bring down the prices of major agricultural commodities. For three consecutive months, ease in monthly inflation rates were recorded: 2.2 percent in September, 1.1 percent in October, and 1.8 percent in November. This was contrary to the faster inflation rates recorded in 2018 with 4.5 percent in August, 7.3 percent in September, and 9.0 percent in October. Figure 1.

Education’s index decreased from 116.4 in 2018 to 114.8 in 2019, registering a 1.4 percent decrease. Among the commodity groups, alcoholic beverages and tobacco recorded the highest CPI of 198.8, higher by 29.3 percent compared to its CPI of 153.8 in 2018. This may be attributed to the current excise taxation system on alcohol and tobacco products. This was followed by food and non-alcoholic beverages and restaurant and miscellaneous goods and services with 128.8 and 116.8, respectively. Communication registered the lowest CPI of 102.5. 3 Table 2.

These food items registered higher inflation rates of 15.6 percent, 2.8 percent, and 9.2 percent, respectively, compared to 2018’s inflation rates. The region’s purchasing power of peso decreased to 0.82 in 2019 from 0.85 in 2018. C.

  • Heritage, Poverty and Landscape-Scale Biodiversity

AAlcorn,lcorn, CarolCarol Carlo,Carlo, JulioJulio Rojas,Rojas, DavidDavid Rothschild,Rothschild, AlakaAlaka Wali,Wali, aandnd AAlejolejo ZZarzyckiarzycki Abstract. Rights-based initiatives offer governments, donors and NGOs a new path forward, giving new meaning to old words like poverty, heritage, and landscape-scale conservation. The conventional conservation perspective holds that people in high biodiversity areas are impoverished and therefore destroy biodiversity to meet their needs. Under this view, people are seen as a threat to be removed, restricted, or to be given “alternative livelihoods” means that do not depend on their traditional natural resources. The poverty-alleviation-based ap- proach to conservation, which is politically acceptable to the status quo, persists within policy and project implementation even if it has often been discredited as unsustainable. Aware of the large investments made in rural development and conservation projects without posi- tive results, rural people have become increasingly anti-conservation and suspicious of NGOs that make their living off communities with development and conservation projects that are not effective. The rights-based approach holds that the root causes of poverty and resource degradation can be addressed only by addressing political relationships that govern access to resources and equitable justice. We offer a perspective gained by valuing the strengthening of the rights-based approach to incorporate the cultural concept of dynamic heritage as a means for “balancing the scale” when collaborating with communities for achieving conservation objectives in the landscape.

Beside the distribution of WAFS products it is used for broadcasting OPMET data. Basis for the data distribution via ISCS is the FASID Table MET 2A. 1.2 ISCS has the task to provide all necessary or requested weather data to aviation users so that SADIS can be considered as a single source of data for flight planning purposes. 1.3 ISCS is a dedicated ICAO system, regulated and controlled under ICAO standards and recommended practices. It forms part of the Aeronautical Fixed Services (AFS) to ensure that aviation data are distributed without conflict and with the appropriate priority. 2 Discussion 2.1 Since the operational start of ISCS many airlines are linked (directly or indirectly) to ISCS as a primary and single source of weather data and products for aviation.. Data like scheduled and non-scheduled OPMET data are depending on their availability and the user requirements. 2.2 The requirements for OPMET data described in Annex 1 of the SUG have been revised several times over the last years.

The Philippines is a consumer, source, and transit point for IWT, threatening endemic species populations, economic development, and biodiversity. The country has been a party to the Convention on Biological Diversity since 1992. The value of IWT in the Philippines is estimated at ₱50 billion a year (roughly equivalent to $1billion), which includes the market value of wildlife and its resources, their ecological role and value, damage to habitats incurred during poaching, and loss in potential
