The World Bank predicts that the Philippine economy will lose momentum this quarter, with the pace of expansion set to slow to 5.8%, similar to the Philippine Institute for Development Studies’ projected gross domestic product (GDP) growth that is eyed to be around 4.5 to 5.5 percent this year. Such projections of the country’s economic outlook for the year seem to differ based on the conducting party, i.e., the numbers presented by the World Bank, PIDS, and other organizations vs. that of the government.
With the aim of providing you with a more substantial picture of the contrasting digits as well as the reasons behind such highs and lows, PMAP’s Labor Policy Reforms and Industrial Relations Committee proudly brings you this month’s IR Kapihan anchored on the theme “What Awaits for the Philippines: Country’s Economic Outlook for 2023,” via Zoom on February 27, 2023 1:30 – 3:00 PM.
