Hello Behind Asia! I am a 16 year old boy who really love your videos and I mean REAALLY LOVE you-re videos because of how easy it is to understand economy of countries because I find it really difficult for me to understand such by reading books as I find it very very complex without easy-to-understand visual guides to understand everything that they are all saying at the book that this channel all have.

I’m just so happy that at 16, you are interested in economics… unlike other young men like your age who are engrossed in video games. Keep it up! I think you’ll be one of our great economists in the future !
Debt is not bad, every country and every person use debt to gain properties they cannot pay cash but can pay in installments with interests attached! Loan to buy a house, a car, go to college/ university, start a business and expand a business, build and repair infrastructure! Without debt life will be more difficult. As you have said Debt is used to leverage growth!!!!!
Great job explaining how the financial status of the country is going. As long as there's no corruption and there's transparency on how the funds are utilized the country will have a good future.
1969 New People's Army also known as Communist Party of the Philippines was born. Progress in the Philippines stopped dead on its track. We waited 30 long years. If it wasn't for Former President Rodrigo Duterte jump starting it, we could still be waiting a lot longer.
Back on track in inflation. More robberies happening. You must be a crony for saying that Duterte and Marcos put the Philippines back on track. You must be living in a private subdivision and paid by the government to say all this. Most poor communities are now denouncing Marcos and Duterte. Time will tell and people and will be back protesting for higher income wages and lower product prices. Just like in the '70s when Marcos tried to shush the people who were complaining about low wage. That was the real start of Martial Law because he couldn't contain the people's outcry for higher income and wage. “Those that fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it.” And here we are with government asking for confidential funds back in track for corruption.
Japan is a great help to us notwithstanding the past war atrocities to each other. They treat Philippines as if their province that must develop economically. In return, we are also supporting Japanese products and restaurants in the country.
It's funny how my own countrymen treat our homeland like some province of another rich country, doesn't matter whether it be China, USA, Japan, and etch.
Eye opener info hope those government detractors will watch and analyze the scenario that Philippines is heading toward strong economic power as new industrialize country. Prayers and God bless Philippines.
not sure about industrialized, but it's more closely seen as moving towards a strong information and service based economy... think of call centre, tech, web development, tourism, mdeical, etc... It's basically skipping "industrialization" as an economic driver. This is a good thing. most western countries are moving towards this direction leaving behind old industries and making other countries do the industrial work for them... that's why the "factory of the world" was china and now moving towards india.
@@zeighy i think he is right. industrialization in my personal understanding does not only limit on manufacturing equipment, machineries, or of any sort of high end gadgets on factories.. but its something like being able to transform a once old slow paced economies into a modern and vibrant one in concert with those richer economies on some part of the world .

Debt is really not a problem, if we can see where the money is being spent on, and if the revenue from that debt is visible. While debt can save the country along the way, corrupt politicians can do otherwise.
If the philippines actually manages their debts correctly, with the proper investment (agriculture being the undermined one the most), you would see the philippines as the agricultural hub thatll support itself and other countries. Its safe to say, that the govt here doesnt do any step to further strengthen its already gifted potential.
They are. Actually, 40% of the workforce population in the phil was in the agriculture sector 30-40 years ago at the time of their president marcos. Now, the agriculture sector only has 10% of the population workforce and the rest has shifted to the latest trend which is telecommunications and other services workforce and now, the late president's son has now taken his place 30 years later and reviving their nation's agricuture industry to its former heights.

@@justinmacasinag6258 i appreciate the effort being put into place on the agriculture industry, its just that its mismanaged and lacking of insight. there is always a stigma towards farming in general, since the times after the americans, they were labeled as either poor or communist members. alongside a general shift of the generation's ideals and mindset, there is a lack of motivation for agriculture in general. lack of proper funding and stigma, even when theres a drive, it doesnt really do that much of a difference if theres no pay/benefits for the people. if we take your word that it used to be around the 30%-40% of the Marcos presidency, then why were there protests from all sectors including agriculture? theres simply no real benefit for the farmers because they lack the basic needs for sustainable livelihood and life in general. we'll be importing more and more common goods in the country if we do not manage how to regrow the sector of agriculture, as well as making a better infrastructure that will support farming, as well as giving more benefits for farmers. unsustainable farming and unsustainable livelihood = no real agricultural growth.
All thanks to the then President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo. Her economic reform was frowned upon by her people but then they reaped the benefits. There are youtube videos where she discussed this during her time.
according to the video 2003 phillipiness debts 70% against GDP due to corruption and mismanaged... 2003 Gloria arroyo administration....

The reason why most projects are expensive and at times subpar, is and will always be corruption and thievery inside the government. IF this video is telling the truth (which I'm on the fence with), then we should be in a much much better position than where we are now. But you can tell for yourself that the lives of Filipinos are improving in a very snail pace at most. Poverty is even on the rise!
Pres GMA despite her unpopularity implemented another round of VAT increasingly inflation, but made the country in a stronger position. The 1997 Asian Crisis made private financial managers move on the conservative side. Same with Indonesia and Thailand. When the 2008 and 2018 financial limbo erupted round the world, SEA fared better than than the rest.
Thanks for this info. All these fruitful results are the efforts & honesty of Ex PRRDuterte & now being continued by PBBM . God Bless the Philippines forever.
@@rjgonzalez9220 thank goodness you commented. I had to, myself. People didn’t bother to know the difference between external debt and national (public/sovereign) debt. Age of misinformation indeed.

The PHilippines were approved by World Bank to borrow or loan because our country have the capacity to pay and our country have funds in different countries and backup by golds. Recently the former CB President said that PH sells gold and we dont buy it.

@@maharlikabebz2249 not really a problem, USA has 137%, Japan has 266%, debt to gdp is not an accurate determinant of how the country is progressing. It's how the money is used. debt to gdp ratio is just how risky it is for international lenders to lend money to the country.
The video hide the 2021 to 2022 data for the debt-to-gdp, because the data suggest at that period accounts for 60% and that level is at the end of the term of Pres. Duterte, which means the first four years has quite low at 30% and in the last 2 years, it ballooned to 60%.
@@lorettaloo7657 blame it to the NPA who sabotage the economic growth of the country, and until now they are still the headached of everyone , and I bet you are one those who are still blinded the yellow's agenda.
The amount of debt itself has actually increased since the Marcos years, not decreased. It's the Debt/GDP ratio that has decreased, mostly due to OFW remittances and BPO's.
I have been traveling and living in the Philippines for several years now and the PH debt has been a concern so I really appreciate this discussion. It will be interesting to see what the last 2 1/2 years+ of lockdowns, travel restrictions, and economic disaster will do to these numbers as data becomes available. Tourism $$$ is a big part of the economy and has been nonexistent for most of 3 years and they will miss out on another "high season" as they are just now opening up to travel.
yup like most recently the lighting of the san juanico bridge. government projects are one of the keys to get some overpricing projects and kick backs.
Debt in the Philippines is not a problem if used wisely. The main problem is corruption in many aspects of society. Temporary loss of patriotism is one of the main causes of this due to communist infiltration which should be thwarted as quickly as possible. Unity among citizens is a must. Bayanihan is the key.
As long as the President and Vice President with the help of upper and lower house eradicate corruption, maintain peace and order and elimination of drug personalities in society and in the government departments. Its going to be good for the development of the Philippines.
Debt is an asset if leverage it right and must have purposeful results i.e. building infrastructures to promote and/or do economic expansions and eliminate government waste and/or rid of nepotism. Do 50/50 government and private equity partnership that would reap rewards first the government for more economic expansions while private equity will eventually get their money in a long-term contract with substantial interests ( % long term earnings or a stake on a project and/or incentives. ) If defaulted on the debt Government has to have a coffers through bonds that would payoff its debt - Reserve Fund. This would lure more foreign investors long term.
The future of the Philippines looks very bright in my opinion, owing to the fact they have a young president with the energy and ability to take the country forward, plus it has oil and gas of it's own, oil is being extracted right now.
Wait till all the infra constructions now is finish!!! The phil with good infra together with good location in the heart of the region!!! Great location for business!!!!!!!!
Foreign debt is not bad if used where it is intended for. PH has failed in curbing fully graft and corruption. We could have been one of the Asian powers decades ago but still hoping that we could be one. The number one priority is prop up infra and agricultural projects in rural areas to prevent population migration to urban areas plus ease up logistical issues in the transfer of good and services throughout the country.
We have learned from the past and our growth has brought new opportunities such as our own MNCs capability to borrow from international financial institutions. In the 70s this was not possible and we could only borrow from government through the BSP which borrowed from the IMF/WB/ADB.
media in the philippines says filipinos are in very deep debt that our grandchildren's grandchildren's grandchild will be so poor and in debt that he could only afford a grain of salt a day.
I heard that from the mainstream media since 86 when I was 14 years old… but more that 3 decades past I think we are far better than other country. I hope the media will be partner by the govt especially in promoting the good side which will attract investors and tourism
Thank you Japan for helping the Philippines. You are. a true friend and the whole nation is forever grateful for your full commitment to the Philippines. It turns out you are our greatest friend and supporter given how you are supporting the country’s infrastructure push
If some of bank FX loans was extended to Finance the purchase of Malampaya oil fields then the bank/s who extended the fx loan will have difficulty collecting the FX loan
6:21 The naysayers among the Filipinos would try to debunk this figure. Most likely their opinions would be heavily laced with pessimism or political overtones. Their indifference would be much more pronounced if the incumbent president is not the candidate that they voted for during the election. This is something that Filipinos should address if they want their country to achieve economic prosperity.
Hi, I'm not an expert but 62% Debt-GDP Ratio is the total debt (domestic + foreign) over the GDP. Domestic debt includes the fund from BSP, state-owned bank (Land Bank, DBP, etc) and maybe private banks borrowed by Gov't or Private sector interchangeably. BA is only concerned in explaining about the foreign debt since Filipinos had a trauma of foreign debt since 70's. As said in the video, handling of foreign debt is the issue but we have transparency as where is it used nowadays. Hope I answered your question.
Also, in housing sector, the Filipino citizens in general (or majority are still) shy away from getting their own house and lot thru loans so it really is very low when it comes to that. Most domestic loans are coming into the business/small business sectors. This is worth noting because housing loans are very much the major driver of domestic loans in most countries which also suggests a healthy figure.
did you included the previous administration borrowed money, it creates so much suffering to the people! you look at positive side for the rich people but its makes so much suffering for the poor
Use the word NEGLIGIBLE to refer to amounts not NEGLIGENT. "NEGLIGIBLE" means a very minor amount or degree. "NEGLIGENT" means to be very careless or not exercising the appropriate level of care.
If your guess is correct, then the Philippine debt should have been terrible now. The Philippines should have collapsed ahead of Sri Lanka but that is not the case.
Surprised that Japan provided more aid compared to China. Even before Japan is one of the good allies of the Philippines, Philippine government should reciprocate and provide all the support it can give even thou Philippines has little to offer it should provide big tax breaks and allow Japanese culture in the workplace, discipline and perseverance. Allowing Japanese companies more freedom will increase workers productivity, resulting to better profits for foreign companies, resulting to more foreign investments.
Debt is not a problem. I have a problem with debt being spent on useless poor people who keep the intergenerational cycle of poverty who Anak pa more with wlang Pera and their teenage children even as young as 11 having babies.. and then BLAMING the government for their problems.
@@reinpinebook825 The communists never put a gun to man or woman to produce children they can't afford. Social assistance is a privilege to those who can be managed... Disciplined... Guided.

@Behind Asia, have you tried living in the Philippines? When Marcos Sr. plunged this country into debt, the standard of living of Filipinos went from palace to prison. Debt is the TYRANT master that Filipinos are struggling with. It's a filthy & squalid condition of life you wouldn't want yourself trapped into. Our overseas workers are working like slaves to pay up debt that was brough about by our evil oligarchs.
There is enough capital held by Philippine investors. While foreign debt if utilized well can still contribute to the development of the country, the volatility of foreign exchange vis-a-vis the US dollar presents a greater risk to the servicing of foreign debt. I think the country's PPP program is a better vehicle to accelerate the Philippines growth and compete with its peers in Southeast Asia.
thanx to our filipino migrant workers...true heroes of the Philippines. we have a huge surplus of american dollars..so huge that we can even the value of the dollar...one dollar to one peso and our economists knows this...ask them,
Borrow more and use it to build or improve infrastructures thus providing employment and building assets in the form of infrastructures. Use the BANKS mo ey to build assets Or equities. ...these equities will be used to improve the lives of many with the benefits gained from infrastructures of roads bridges hospitals schools etc. Go go go Philippines ❤️❤️❤️
You are right if these debts were used for economic growth but the sad news that almost half of these debts went to the pockets corrupt politicials and the other half to substandard projects that don't last for many years. And we are only talkinghere of external debts. Our domestic debts is also high ,maybe close to 1 trillion pesos!
sabe nga dun sa video nag grow na economy natin from 70% na debt to gdp noong 2003 naging 20 something nalang ngayon pero pinopolitika parin, the way ipahayag yung debt natin ngayon sa mga mainstream media parang mas lumala pa lalo kaya maraming nagagalit sa gobyerno where in fact ang laki-laki na ng improvements. kung kinokorakot lang ng politiko majority ng funds edi from 70% dapat nasa 150% na tayo at mas nauna pa tayo sa sri lanka na bankrupt pero hndi eh. tumaas lang kaunti debt to gdp natin nung pandemic parangmalulubog na sa utang ang pilipinas the way mag react mga pinoy which malayong malayo pa naman based sa videong ito.
Why separate external and internal debt??? Both have to be paid. In fact, ₱1.6T of the 5.5T national budget for 2023 goes to debt servicing. That's 1/3 of budget that should have gone to benefit the people. Regarding the infra that were built, since 2 decades ago, most of them were done under Public-Private Partnership. Private companies fund them, operate for a few years until they recover the cost, then turnover to government. No loan was taken to build them.
@@EC-gq4xx i bow to your undoubtedly superiority on all things o wise one. Now go back to scrounging pints from the good folks you've been boring to death all these years.
I think this is a very generalized view. The effects of the external debt have been different from time to time. In this case, the external debt during the 1970s was far higher than its predecessors, it slowed a bit in the 90s but it was still growing. The Asian Financial Crisis then suddenly added a lot more debt as can be seen in the data post-90s. However, the ratio started to dip down as austerity measures were in place. The biggest reason why external debt dipped down was entirely because every successive government post-Marcos has been implementing an economic policy of austerity above all else. Its only now with the recent government that a policy of building took place as such debt is starting to mount up again especially with Covid-19
Oh my god! your a genius guy thanks a lot, you clarify everything about the government debt, anyway The government of today are more smart compared to to yesterday right? thank you for your support to the filipino people mabuhay ang Pilipinas!!!!!.

🙋Thanks to OFW and Pilipinos/Filipinos living abroad, that debt will be paid off sooner or later.🙏 Number one export of the country. More people go abroad, more remittance and more income. 🙌 🙏🕊️♥️
Compare debt to asset for example in mining if the reserve mine has trillion dollar in number of years that will be its revenue for its GDP to ration of debt…so Philippines has more assets than debt…
problem occurs. most of the masterplan of marcos to the philippines have been change and get shutdown by aquino. if only the power plant and the sewage system have been followed manila is not having so much problem with the flooding.and the power plant should be earning money and some of our department/business will not go to private sectors like the water and electricity sector. where aquino sold them to their family relatives
I should say it's meticulously well said about the external debts of the country, because of rampant corruptions foreign debts will stay in the country for long time, I've been out of the country 47 years the standard of living still the same regarding more peoples creates more poverty's corruptions is a killer for the countries futures like drug dealer easy money no hard work whoever it is the President in the country doesn't make any difference corruptions always be there actually I'm sick of it
Most of the comments here are Heavily Politicized. I don't care who's the president of the Phil. as long as it boosts our economy then good because it's their job, as a Filipino we can agree or disagree on this but in every situation there's always two sides and all of the Presidents are not perfect even the present one. As long as the President doing his or her job then we need to support, Philippines is a huge country and I'm not some kind of person who is expert in economy or politics. The word Propaganda is always painful to hear or read. Because if a certain video or content is not in favor to your Political biases, you will say "Propaganda" or "Fake News". Saying Propaganda or Fake News a certain content or video will not make the Philippine economy grow and it will not benefit a poor Filipinos, it doesn't make any sense at all, insignificant and futile.
How are we supposed to know which presidential candidate will give us the best economic boost??? Look at their policy, sure, maybe listen to their speeches, see what they have to say, alright, but a big problem in philippine politics is everyone and their mother is a lying sht that just wants to horde as much money as they can to Switzerland before they're exiled so any kind of policy becomes untrustworthy after that. We can also look at their background/past to see if they're more likely to be genuine. Our current president is the son of a tyrannical dictator who ran our economy to the ground, so already hes very untrustworthy..

Blame the colonizers who stole all your gold and taught you scarcity mentality. The Philippines is the land of Ophir.
This is how the Government should explain to the critics especially to mass media here in the Phils.
Debt is really not a problem, if we can see where the money is being spent on, and if the revenue from that debt is visible.
While debt can save the country along the way, corrupt politicians can do otherwise.
If the philippines actually manages their debts correctly, with the proper investment (agriculture being the undermined one the most), you would see the philippines as the agricultural hub thatll support itself and other countries. Its safe to say, that the govt here doesnt do any step to further strengthen its already gifted potential.
They are. Actually, 40% of the workforce population in the phil was in the agriculture sector 30-40 years ago at the time of their president marcos. Now, the agriculture sector only has 10% of the population workforce and the rest has shifted to the latest trend which is telecommunications and other services workforce and now, the late president's son has now taken his place 30 years later and reviving their nation's agricuture industry to its former heights.

@@justinmacasinag6258 i appreciate the effort being put into place on the agriculture industry, its just that its mismanaged and lacking of insight. there is always a stigma towards farming in general, since the times after the americans, they were labeled as either poor or communist members. alongside a general shift of the generation's ideals and mindset, there is a lack of motivation for agriculture in general. lack of proper funding and stigma, even when theres a drive, it doesnt really do that much of a difference if theres no pay/benefits for the people. if we take your word that it used to be around the 30%-40% of the Marcos presidency, then why were there protests from all sectors including agriculture? theres simply no real benefit for the farmers because they lack the basic needs for sustainable livelihood and life in general. we'll be importing more and more common goods in the country if we do not manage how to regrow the sector of agriculture, as well as making a better infrastructure that will support farming, as well as giving more benefits for farmers. unsustainable farming and unsustainable livelihood = no real agricultural growth.

debt is not a problem
corruption and the cronies of politician here in the Philippines is the problem
as foreign debt implementation is only 75 %
The reason why most projects are expensive and at times subpar, is and will always be corruption and thievery inside the government. IF this video is telling the truth (which I'm on the fence with), then we should be in a much much better position than where we are now. But you can tell for yourself that the lives of Filipinos are improving in a very snail pace at most. Poverty is even on the rise!

Hi.. but what I know our debt to gdp is 62%
@@maharlikabebz2249 not really a problem, USA has 137%, Japan has 266%, debt to gdp is not an accurate determinant of how the country is progressing. It's how the money is used.
debt to gdp ratio is just how risky it is for international lenders to lend money to the country.
I learned a lot in these channel im only 17 years old but im so interested about economics
The video hide the 2021 to 2022 data for the debt-to-gdp, because the data suggest at that period accounts for 60% and that level is at the end of the term of Pres. Duterte, which means the first four years has quite low at 30% and in the last 2 years, it ballooned to 60%.

I have been traveling and living in the Philippines for several years now and the PH debt has been a concern so I really appreciate this discussion. It will be interesting to see what the last 2 1/2 years+ of lockdowns, travel restrictions, and economic disaster will do to these numbers as data becomes available. Tourism $$$ is a big part of the economy and has been nonexistent for most of 3 years and they will miss out on another "high season" as they are just now opening up to travel.
Scrapping that ridiculous airport tax would be a good start to bring in more tourists.

Debt in the Philippines is not a problem if used wisely. The main problem is corruption in many aspects of society. Temporary loss of patriotism is one of the main causes of this due to communist infiltration which should be thwarted as quickly as possible. Unity among citizens is a must. Bayanihan is the key.
2018 to 2021 that’s the year when corruption was controlled and transparency was its finest 👏🏻
As long as the President and Vice President with the help of upper and lower house eradicate corruption, maintain peace and order and elimination of drug personalities in society and in the government departments. Its going to be good for the development of the Philippines.
Debt is an asset if leverage it right and must have purposeful results i.e. building infrastructures to promote and/or do economic expansions and eliminate government waste and/or rid of nepotism. Do 50/50 government and private equity partnership that would reap rewards first the government for more economic expansions while private equity will eventually get their money in a long-term contract with substantial interests ( % long term earnings or a stake on a project and/or incentives. ) If defaulted on the debt Government has to have a coffers through bonds that would payoff its debt - Reserve Fund. This would lure more foreign investors long term.
The future of the Philippines looks very bright in my opinion, owing to the fact they have a young president with the energy and ability to take the country forward, plus it has oil and gas of it's own, oil is being extracted right now.
Wait till all the infra constructions now is finish!!! The phil with good infra together with good location in the heart of the region!!! Great location for business!!!!!!!!
Foreign debt is not bad if used where it is intended for. PH has failed in curbing fully graft and corruption. We could have been one of the Asian powers decades ago but still hoping that we could be one. The number one priority is prop up infra and agricultural projects in rural areas to prevent population migration to urban areas plus ease up logistical issues in the transfer of good and services throughout the country.
Better said than done, Philippine currency is deteriorating. Population explosions is beyond control and population is religiously indoctrinated.
lol! it's done
Hopefully this information is helpful for the poor people not to corruption of government politicians and businesses only….
We have learned from the past and our growth has brought new opportunities such as our own MNCs capability to borrow from international financial institutions. In the 70s this was not possible and we could only borrow from government through the BSP which borrowed from the IMF/WB/ADB.
media in the philippines says filipinos are in very deep debt that our grandchildren's grandchildren's grandchild will be so poor and in debt that he could only afford a grain of salt a day.
I heard that from the mainstream media since 86 when I was 14 years old… but more that 3 decades past I think we are far better than other country. I hope the media will be partner by the govt especially in promoting the good side which will attract investors and tourism

6:21 The naysayers among the Filipinos would try to debunk this figure. Most likely their opinions would be heavily laced with pessimism or political overtones. Their indifference would be much more pronounced if the incumbent president is not the candidate that they voted for during the election. This is something that Filipinos should address if they want their country to achieve economic prosperity.
Hi BA, I want to verify, i read that Philippines debt to GDP ratio is 62%
Am I missing something here?
Hi, I'm not an expert but 62% Debt-GDP Ratio is the total debt (domestic + foreign) over the GDP. Domestic debt includes the fund from BSP, state-owned bank (Land Bank, DBP, etc) and maybe private banks borrowed by Gov't or Private sector interchangeably. BA is only concerned in explaining about the foreign debt since Filipinos had a trauma of foreign debt since 70's. As said in the video, handling of foreign debt is the issue but we have transparency as where is it used nowadays. Hope I answered your question.
@@jonathanjayfrancisco8534 oh I see. Thank you so much for the explanation ☺️
Also, in housing sector, the Filipino citizens in general (or majority are still) shy away from getting their own house and lot thru loans so it really is very low when it comes to that. Most domestic loans are coming into the business/small business sectors. This is worth noting because housing loans are very much the major driver of domestic loans in most countries which also suggests a healthy figure.

If your guess is correct, then the Philippine debt should have been terrible now. The Philippines should have collapsed ahead of Sri Lanka but that is not the case.
Surprised that Japan provided more aid compared to China. Even before Japan is one of the good allies of the Philippines, Philippine government should reciprocate and provide all the support it can give even thou Philippines has little to offer it should provide big tax breaks and allow Japanese culture in the workplace, discipline and perseverance.
Allowing Japanese companies more freedom will increase workers productivity, resulting to better profits for foreign companies, resulting to more foreign investments.

wowwww nice informations and to listen this vlogg mabuhay po kayo .
There is enough capital held by Philippine investors. While foreign debt if utilized well can still contribute to the development of the country, the volatility of foreign exchange vis-a-vis the US dollar presents a greater risk to the servicing of foreign debt. I think the country's PPP program is a better vehicle to accelerate the Philippines growth and compete with its peers in Southeast Asia.

You are right if these debts were used for economic growth but the sad news that almost half of these debts went to the pockets corrupt politicials and the other half to substandard projects that don't last for many years.

External debt is different from the national debt. The national debt of the Philippines is over 12 TRILLION.
Why separate external and internal debt??? Both have to be paid.
In fact, ₱1.6T of the 5.5T national budget for 2023 goes to debt servicing. That's 1/3 of budget that should have gone to benefit the people.
Regarding the infra that were built, since 2 decades ago, most of them were done under Public-Private Partnership. Private companies fund them, operate for a few years until they recover the cost, then turnover to government. No loan was taken to build them.

Great vedio clear and simple thanks
Why was my comment deleted? I always make sensible commentary.
I think this is a very generalized view. The effects of the external debt have been different from time to time. In this case, the external debt during the 1970s was far higher than its predecessors, it slowed a bit in the 90s but it was still growing. The Asian Financial Crisis then suddenly added a lot more debt as can be seen in the data post-90s. However, the ratio started to dip down as austerity measures were in place.
The biggest reason why external debt dipped down was entirely because every successive government post-Marcos has been implementing an economic policy of austerity above all else. Its only now with the recent government that a policy of building took place as such debt is starting to mount up again especially with Covid-19

Most of the comments here are Heavily Politicized.
I don't care who's the president of the Phil. as long as it boosts our economy then good because it's their job, as a Filipino we can agree or disagree on this but in every situation there's always two sides and all of the Presidents are not perfect even the present one.
As long as the President doing his or her job then we need to support, Philippines is a huge country and I'm not some kind of person who is expert in economy or politics. The word Propaganda is always painful to hear or read. Because if a certain video or content is not in favor to your Political biases, you will say "Propaganda" or "Fake News". Saying Propaganda or Fake News a certain content or video will not make the Philippine economy grow and it will not benefit a poor Filipinos, it doesn't make any sense at all, insignificant and futile.
How are we supposed to know which presidential candidate will give us the best economic boost??? Look at their policy, sure, maybe listen to their speeches, see what they have to say, alright, but a big problem in philippine politics is everyone and their mother is a lying sht that just wants to horde as much money as they can to Switzerland before they're exiled so any kind of policy becomes untrustworthy after that. We can also look at their background/past to see if they're more likely to be genuine. Our current president is the son of a tyrannical dictator who ran our economy to the ground, so already hes very untrustworthy..
