Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 2 Abstract This thesis is about the political economy of the Philippines in the process of recovery from the ruin of economic crisis in the early 1980s. It examines the dynamics of Philippine politics by focussing on banking sector reform between 1986 and 1995. After the economic turmoil of the early 1980s, the economy recovered between 1986 and 1996 under the Aquino and Ramos governments, although the country is still facing numerous economic challenges. After the "Asian currency crisis" of 1997, the economy inevitably decelerated again. However, the Philippines was seen as one of the economies least adversely affected by the rapid depreciation of its currency. The existing literature tends to stress the roles played by international financial structures, the policy preferences of the IMF, the World Bank and the US government and the interests of the dominant social force as decisive factors underlying economic and banking reform policy-making in the Philippines.

  • (UPOU). an Explorat
    his paper is a self-reflection on the state of openness of the University of the Philippines Open University (UPOU). An exploratory and descriptive study, it aims not only to define the elements of openness of UPOU, but also to unravel the causes and solutions to the issues and concerns that limit its options to becoming a truly open university. It is based on four parameters of openness, which are widely universal in the literature, e.g., open admissions, open curricula, distance education at scale, and the co-creation, sharing and use of open educational resources (OER). It draws from the perception survey among peers, which the author conducted in UPOU in July and August 2012. It also relies on relevant secondary materials on the subject. What if you could revisit and download the questions you took during the UPCAT (University of the Philippines College Admission Test)? I received information that this will soon be a possibility. It’s not yet official though. For some people, including yours truly, this is the same set of questions that made and unmade dreams. Not all UPCAT takers make it. Only a small fraction pass the test. Some of the passers see it as a blessing. Some see it as fuel, firing their desire to keep working harder. Some see it as an entitlement — instant membership to an elite group. Whatever its worth, the UPCAT is the entryway to the University of the Philippines, a scholastic community with a unique and celebrated tradition spanning more than a century. But take heed — none of its legacy would have been possible if not for the hard work of Filipino taxpayers.

  • Policy Research
    There are no arguments against, and the evidences abound for the contributions and influences of the Philippine Institute for Development Studies (PIDS) on the socioeconomic leaders of our country in the creation of policies and decisions for nation building. The PIDS members have done this through its 40 years of dedicated research and analysis aimed at producing evidence-based studies that would lead to salutary policies. Founded 40 years ago on September 26, 1977 by the then director-general of the National Economic and Development Authority, the visionary Gerardo Sicat, PIDS was initially designed as a government-owned research institution that will provide independent advice to policymakers. Over the years, the Institute evolved into a reputable and respectable think tank that is ranked among the best think tanks in the world. Indeed, there are valid and compelling reasons to celebrate the achievements of the Institute. And there is no better way of celebration than through a chronicle of its achievements with the publication of a book titled, From Evidence to Policy: Celebrating 40 Years of Policy Research. It will preserve and enshrine for posterity the 40 years of tedious research and analysis done by the members of PIDS who labored to produce data-driven, independent, and credible policy studies for the benefit of policymakers, and ultimately, for the well-being of our people. As an economist and a socioeconomic-analyst-turned-lawmaker, I salute the members and leaders of PIDS for their credible contributions for the guidance of our nation builders. Rest assured of my continued support by way of legislations and other means.

    Souvenir Program 45th Annual Meeting 14-16 November 2007 Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas PES_souvenir.indd 1 11/7/07 5:33:10 PM Message from the BSP Governor M E S S A G E Th e Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas is honored once again to co-sponsor the Annual Meeting of the Philippine Economic Society (PES), which is now in its 45th year. Th e PES Annual Meeting has always been the preeminent venue for the discussion and dissemination of research among economists in the Philippines. It has also become one of the foremost gatherings of the profession in the region. It is, therefore, with keen interest that we look foreward to today’s discussions under the umbrella of “Revitalizing Investments Towards Sustained Economic Growth.” Th e Philippine economy has experienced continued growth over the past fi ve years. Th e collective challenge that we now face is ensuring sustained, robust and broad-based growth over the long-term to benefi t all Filipinos. To this end, we need to fi nd ways to revitalize key sectors in the economy, such as manufacturing, energy and mining, and strengthen their productivity and ability to compete globally. We also need to develop the capital markets in order to harness the ample liquidity in the fi nancial system to help raise the long-term potential of the economy. However, the road ahead of us does not stop with economic growth. Other important challenges confront the practice of economics in the Philippines today. We need to address the impact of the increasing pattern of labor migration on the economy with a view to minimizing the costs and maximizing the benefi ts.
