DAVAO CITY (MindaNews / 27 August) – The employment rate in Davao Region decreased to 82.1 percent as of 2nd quarter of 2020 amid the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic, National Economic Development Authority (NEDA)-Davao Region director Maria Lourdes Lim said.
 
In her report during the virtual launch of Davao Regional Development Plan 2017-2022, Lim said the current employment figure dropped by 14.8 percentage points from 96.9 percent reported in the same period of last year.
 
The drop caused the unemployment rate to rise to 17.9 percent during the period reported.
 
The region’s labor force was estimated at 1.965 million, of whom 1.614 million were employed, according to Lim.


Davao de Oro Gov. Jayvee Tyron Uy, Regional Development Council chair, acknowledged that the region suffered huge losses in the second quarter due to the lockdowns during the quarantine period to manage the spread of COVID-19.
 
“We have big losses in our economy because of the pandemic, particularly service and tourism industries,” he said, adding that small hotels, restaurants, inns, among others, have been shut down as a preventive measure against the disease.

With the region in recovery stage following the shift to modified general community quarantine, Uy added that industries have been slowly opening up while provinces allowed tourism activities to resume at a limited capacity to restart the economy, potentially generating employment.
 
“We are opening gradually because we still have to maintain the minimum health standards prescribed to us by the Department of Health to minimize the transmission of COVID,” he said.
 
Meanwhile, Lim said the inflation rate in the region was at two percent in the second quarter of this year, which was lower compared to 3.6 percent recorded in the same quarter in 2019.
 
“This low and stable inflation rate during the second quarter of 2020 was attributed to the decrease of inflation rate particularly of housing water, electricity, and other utilities, including transport and maintenance and furnishing of households,”

Consider that in today’s fast-moving world, diseases travel at breakneck speeds. Now, It is essential to raise poverty awareness because many people are unaware of how bad poverty is in developing countries, but they are also unaware of how high poverty rates have risen in their own country. Our world could be a much better place if we could raise more awareness; even a few donation to help the various campaigns such as non government organizations will leave a positive footprint in the fight against poverty.]]> 2021-08-16 15:04:33 UTC https://padlet.com/otvillanueva/ust7dz32ppqvd78q/wish/1680560617 Hermie Valle otvillanueva https://padlet.com/otvillanueva/ust7dz32ppqvd78q/wish/1681479483 New job opportunities have accompanied economic growth in the Philippines, but unemployment remains relatively elevated, compared to elsewhere in the region, while chronic underemployment and static wage growth have seen the number of working poor expand in recent years. The government is addressing these challenges through investments in education and health, such as a conditional cash transfer program and senior high school reforms. However, wage growth remains stubbornly slow, representing one of the most significant challenges facing the country’s labour market. Indeed, gains in productivity have easily outpaced real wage growth, which has stagnated over the previous decade.

It doesn't matter you live in big mansion in the Philippines or not; if we allow the government to ignore the poor and make them poorer, then it wouldn't just affect them, but it would also affect our economy, our country, and ourselves. 
Finding a job is not an easy task. Especially now that we're in a time of a pandemic when more and more people are struggling to make ends meet and poverty is rising high. That's why we need the help of the government to provide more jobs for the jobless and for the ones who need it the most. They need to do job programs to boost employments and help the needy. 
If the government would provide these jobs and help the poor escape the struggle they're experiencing now, then it could be the end of poverty in this country.]]> 2021-08-17 03:37:56 UTC https://padlet.com/otvillanueva/ust7dz32ppqvd78q/wish/1681482972 Oenone Villanueva otvillanueva https://padlet.com/otvillanueva/ust7dz32ppqvd78q/wish/1681490441 'Build Build Build' to generate 1.1 million jobs annually in the medium term.

As students, we are not obliged to take part on major processes but what we can be responsible by spreading the word of poverty and how it ruins most people's lives, it limits them from doing more for their family and to the economy. Nonprofit organizations strengthen communities by providing the educational, health, and social services that citizens need and which the government cannot fully provide. With this, we must invest as volunteers of the youth to  fulfill the organization's missions when they have dedicated and passionate people who give their time, talent, and treasure to volunteer and serve on nonprofits’ volunteer.]]> 2021-08-17 04:03:51 UTC https://padlet.com/otvillanueva/ust7dz32ppqvd78q/wish/1681520231
