Funny, that the foreign companies mentioned are poorly performant. Regardless, foreign top performant ones can freely, too. Naming a few: Big three (Chevron, Shell and Petron), Toyota, Ford, etc. The Philippines can live without these nuisances. So, it's a win-win.
Agree, it lost to countries like India, Vietnam, Indonesia, Thailand n Malaysia due to high cost of labor, militant labor, high energy cost and of course the one to top them all govt corruption 😊😅😂
Many years ago many factories closed because of high electricity cost, lack of infrastructure, corruption and red tape, radical worker unions like KMU who keeps organizing strikes. Wonder why when you look at your toothpaste, shampoo or any household things we use, they are made either in Indonesia, Thailand or Malaysia or Vietnam. They used to be produced locally until Unilever and Proctor and Gamble closed their factories here. We also used to have tire manufacturing and car assembly here, now it's all made in Thailand or China.

Just listen 1:12; its the companies balance sheets. They need to make hard decisions if the foreign contribution margins (this is the profit or loss of Sales plus variable costs before any administrative expenses and payroll are subtracted) is not up to their profit goals: poor sales. You can have a gov't that cater to these companies, and if their balance sheets especially in their income statement shows that they are not making it, its time to fold. In the past, presidents like FVR, have sold Philippine companies to foreigners, we got the cash, but some of the companies are victims of the geoeconomics downturn. If you look at our price of labor, we are one of the cheapest labor fore for these companies.

Foreign companies and individuals are scared off from investing in our country, thanks to anti-FDI laws like the maximum 40% equity participation requirement for certain industries by foreigners, and the rest of the 60% must be invested by already well-off Pinoys. The outright foreign land ownership ban also scares foreign individuals away from retiring in our country because they can't access housing loans without showing land titles to local commercial banks.

Those companies just refused to tell the real reason why they left the Philippines. Sadly, corruption drives them away. It's the same reason why prospective investors are also scared. It's the reason why our utilities are one of the most expensive in the world. It's the reason why we have poor infrastructure. It's the reason why it's never easy to open and maintain an investment here.
Talk about the 60/40 ownership. The foreigner put up all the money but can only own 40% of the company. The foreigner can't own the land of the business. Sounds like a bad investment for the foreigner but good for the Philippines. The foreigner can't even own a lot to build a house to live there. Everything is set up for the foreigner to lose money. It's like playing 3 card monte! No mater what you pick you lose and they win! Until you can have ownership of what you buy. No smart foreigner is going to want to take the chance of putting up all of the funds but, can only have 40% and if you Filipino partner pulls out you have to find another or lose everything because you can't own anything! This is just a bad business model!
Now you can own 100%. Other countries also have foreign ownership restrictions but they have lots of investors due to low costs. In the Philippines the utilities are privatized, almost everything is privatized, it baffles me. WHY??? And why the Filipinos pray to a white god?
@@harem_lord-FFMhahaha 100% ownership? Wrong! You cannot circumvent a Constitution. The Supreme Court will rule that business unconstitutional, thus close. Starlink is facing such a problem right now.

MANILA, Philippines - A Chinese and a Chinese-American, both associated with the medical device industry, have been kidnapped for ransom and killed. The victims arrived in the Philippines on June 20 on a business trip, but they were kidnapped by unidentified persons. One of the victims is Xia Ke Fu, 39, a marketing director at Suzhou RainMed Medical Technology and an alumnus of Hunan City University. The identity of the other victim, a Chinese-American, is being withheld by the authorities at the request of his family. The US Federal Bureau of Investigation is reportedly assisting in the probe. The kidnappers killed the victims on June 24 despite their families paying a ransom of three million RMB. Their remains were recovered in a province in Luzon. The Chinese embassy has expressed concern to Malacañang about crimes targeting Chinese nationals. Chinese Ambassador Huang Xilian met with Executive Secretary Lucas Bersamin last Monday at the Palace.
Philippine and Latin America countries have one thing in common that is RC religion, too many Sunday hypocrites with irresponsible working practices, always spewing nonsense with all sorts of excuses just to avoid takings responsibility

@@guitarreroknight Nobody knows who did the crime unless Philippines law enforcement found the suspects and bring it to the justice. If it fails, it proofs that it is not safe to do business in that country.

@@phoenix5054 it is apparent that there is a huge push of anti-US propaganda. This is the result of the Philippines staying neutral. The exit of the US in Subic Bay produced a power vacuum. This ouster of the US forces was orchestrated by the CCP. Filipinos need to learn not to trust the CCP.

The Philippine government has not been loyal to its ASEAN (Association of South-East Asian Nations) Countries (i.e. China, Malaysia, Indonesia, Laos, Thailand, Cambodia, Myanmar, Singapore and Vietnam). The ASEAN Countries are all prospering, but the leaders of the Philippines have turned their support towards USA's interests and not what's best for ASEAN. USA uses the Philippines to justify why they are 10,000 km away from their own country, surrounding the ASEAN countries with weekly War Ships and War Planes for the past 10 years ... and USA's annual LIVE Naval exercises in the ASEAN waters. As such, the Philippines are losing companies because their proUSA choices is making the whole region unstable. The Leaders of the Philippines need to REALLY STUDY HARD what USA has done to Ukraine, using them as their Battle Field and their People for USA's proxy War against Russia. So why do the leaders of the Philippines think that USA care about them?

Which company want to sit on a ticking bomb while the surroundings are crumbling like a house of cards?. I have been to the Philippines two times and I could see that they are poor and the public infrastructure is less developed than Thailand.

It’s close relationship with the usa and the usd cause the debt to increase and its economy to a stagnation.
Do you even fuckin understand that if you, chinese commies were to attack the PH, then the US would certainly seek chinese blood with their own hands? The PH situtation is quite different from Ukraine. Those poor Ukranians have been fighting nearly all by themselves since the war broke out with such a little help from the US in terms of weapons. In a China PH war, the American troops, their navies, their armies and airforce will be directly involved, so this won't be a Ukranian scenario. The whole of US war machine will be mobilized including their 5k plus nukes. Yes, the PH will suffer tremendous losses but China will be pulvurized to pieces. Fun fact, the Americans and their politicians hate the chinese communist regime and see them as threat to their economy and security. Pelosi recently trashed Winnie the Pooh. Trump hates China so badly. Biden and the democrats hate the CCP regime just the same. Lol
Vietnam's per capita GDP in 2024 is estimated to be $4,623 (nominal) and $15,470 (PPP). The average minimum hourly wage for Vietnam is around VND 15,600 (roughly $0.67) in Region IV, while the highest is VND 22,500 (approximately $0.97) in Region I (major cities like Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City). Vietnam's average monthly salary varies depending on location and skillset. Here's a general idea: * Unskilled workers: VND 4-5 million (around $170-$215) a month * Skilled workers: VND 10 million (around $430) a month. . The electricity price in Vietnam varies depending on consumption level. As of November 2023, the following tiers apply: * VND 1,806 (US$0.07) per kWh for the first 50 kWh * VND 1,866 to VND 3,151 (US0.07 to US0.13) per kWh for consumption exceeding 50 kWh These prices reflect a 4.5% increase implemented in November 2023. . The Philippines' per capita GDP in 2024 is estimated to be around $4,130 (nominal) and $12,191 (PPP). The average monthly wage in Metro Manila is estimated to be around ₱32,870 ($558), according to the 2023 Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) Occupational Wages Survey. This figure includes both salary and other benefits, such as allowances and overtime pay. . The electricity rate in the Philippines varies depending on location and the specific electricity provider. However, as of July 2024, the typical household rate in Metro Manila is around Php 11.91 per kilowatt-hour (kWh). This is an indicative rate and can fluctuate depending on various factors.
Philippines has more expensive electricity $0.21 per kWh, more expensive telecom services $50 a month for unlimited data from Smart), more expensive labor $560 a month . Vietnam has cheaper electricity $0.07 per kwh, cheapest telecom services ($5 a month unlimited calls and unlimited internet data) , cheaper labor ($100-200 a month) .

The Philippines gained independence long before many other Asean countries. In the early years of Marcos's rule, The Philippines was regarded as a role model in South East Asia or even Asia. However, the glorious days didn't last as mismanagement and corruption continued to plague this country until the ousting of Marcos. People's power didn't restore order in this country as malpractice was deep rooted. Back to Marcos Jr and history seems to repeat itself. But it's still the result of People's choice.
Main reason is the current Phillipines top leadership is leaning towards imperialistic US to pit against China.

The Philippines under FPRDuterte was on its way to being conduscive to foreign investors and progress. Under this administration unfortunately, all the previous changes have been wiped out and has taken a full reverse back to full blown corruption, criminality and has taken the Philippines on its dangerous path to war.
It also should be noted that corruption is a significant problem in the Philippines, as well as across Southeast Asia. People live in such poverty that when they become wealthy, they adopt a mindset of "taking as much as you can while you can."

what a joke, the fact that top tier companies are leaving your country meant your country are in trouble, it is no longer attractive or useful to them, does not matter who runs the country, in fact, the current admin only make things worse, think about it, already companies are leaving, then, hope for others to come, BUT Philippines is now a BIG target, who will dare to come? investments take time, 3-8 years for ROI, who will wait that long when at any time, all kinds of proxy wars can happen. does not even need a military conflict, just disruption to power or raw materials will be bad enough. in the past, China still invests in the Philippines in spite of the sea conflict, should have continue to engage China on the conflict while still getting China to develop the Philippines. look at what Vietnam is doing, they even fought a real bloody war, yet Vietnam is booming from the former enemy, Vietnam swallowed their pride and decided realistically, and they are becoming more powerful and wealthy from their former enemy BUT stupid Philippine who has too much pride and thinks like a American lapdog, go and get chine's enemy. the us, to their country and make themselves a big target, now, China has to target those bases and support infrastructure in any conflict, sure to have big collateral damages to the place, meanwhile what has the us bring into the Philippines, any investment? with the Americans there, did it attract more investment or the opposite? while the rest of Asean trying very hard to not have American bases on their soil, Philippines instead of thinking with their brains, think with their hearts are self-destructing. as long as those bases are there, Philippines has become a proxy front line and no businesses will invest there for sure, other than those supporting the bases, in the past, when the Americans were in the Philippines, a lot of the economy revolves around those bases, Philippine hands and bodies will be sacrificed on it.
The problem is they don't like China. They'd rather be poor and felt like they're being victimized by China, than learn from China. Besides they have severe colonial mentality.

Talk about the 60/40 ownership. The foreigner put up all the money but can only own 40% of the company. The foreigner can't own the land of the business. Sounds like a bad investment for the foreigner but good for the Philippines. The foreigner can't even own a lot to build a house to live there. Everything is set up for the foreigner to lose money. It's like playing 3 card monte! No mater what you pick you lose and they win! Until you can have ownership of what you buy. No smart foreigner is going to want to take the chance of putting up all of the funds but, can only have 40% and if you Filipino partner pulls out you have to find another or lose everything because you can't own anything! This is just a bad business model!

Which company want to sit on a ticking bomb while the surroundings are crumbling like a house of cards?. I have been to the Philippines two times and I could see that they are poor and the public infrastructure is less developed than Thailand. The Philippines is a target to be destroyed by China’s missiles when the USA’s conflict with China is ignited and its supply chain network is not developed to sustain big companies like Intel. It’s close relationship with the usa and the usd cause the debt to increase and its economy to a stagnation.
Do you even fuckin understand that if you, chinese commies were to attack the PH, then the US would certainly seek chinese blood with their own hands? The PH situtation is quite different from Ukraine. Those poor Ukranians have been fighting nearly all by themselves since the war broke out with such a little help from the US in terms of weapons. In a China PH war, the American troops, their navies, their armies and airforce will be directly involved, so this won't be a Ukranian scenario. The whole of US war machine will be mobilized including their 5k plus nukes. Yes, the PH will suffer tremendous losses but China will be pulvurized to pieces. Fun fact, the Americans and their politicians hate the chinese communist regime and see them as threat to their economy and security. Pelosi recently trashed Winnie the Pooh. Trump hates China so badly. Biden and the democrats hate the CCP regime just the same. Lol

Vietnam's per capita GDP in 2024 is estimated to be $4,623 (nominal) and $15,470 (PPP).
The average minimum hourly wage for Vietnam is around VND 15,600 (roughly $0.67) in Region IV, while the highest is VND 22,500 (approximately $0.97) in Region I (major cities like Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City).
Vietnam's average monthly salary varies depending on location and skillset. Here's a general idea:
* Unskilled workers: VND 4-5 million (around $170-$215) a month
* Skilled workers: VND 10 million (around $430) a month.
.
The electricity price in Vietnam varies depending on consumption level. As of November 2023, the following tiers apply:
* VND 1,806 (US$0.07) per kWh for the first 50 kWh
* VND 1,866 to VND 3,151 (US0.07 to US0.13) per kWh for consumption exceeding 50 kWh
These prices reflect a 4.5% increase implemented in November 2023.
.
The Philippines' per capita GDP in 2024 is estimated to be around $4,130 (nominal) and $12,191 (PPP).
The average monthly wage in Metro Manila is estimated to be around ₱32,870 ($558), according to the 2023 Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) Occupational Wages Survey. This figure includes both salary and other benefits, such as allowances and overtime pay.
.
The electricity rate in the Philippines varies depending on location and the specific electricity provider. However, as of July 2024, the typical household rate in Metro Manila is around Php 11.91 per kilowatt-hour (kWh). This is an indicative rate and can fluctuate depending on various factors.
Philippines has more expensive electricity $0.21 per kWh, more expensive telecom services $50 a month for unlimited data from Smart), more expensive labor $560 a month .
Vietnam has cheaper electricity $0.07 per kwh, cheapest telecom services ($5 a month unlimited calls and unlimited internet data) , cheaper labor ($100-200 a month) .

The Philippines gained independence long before many other Asean countries. In the early years of Marcos's rule, The Philippines was regarded as a role model in South East Asia or even Asia. However, the glorious days didn't last as mismanagement and corruption continued to plague this country until the ousting of Marcos. People's power didn't restore order in this country as malpractice was deep rooted. Back to Marcos Jr and history seems to repeat itself. But it's still the result of People's choice.

The Philippines under FPRDuterte was on its way to being conduscive to foreign investors and progress. Under this administration unfortunately, all the previous changes have been wiped out and has taken a full reverse back to full blown corruption, criminality and has taken the Philippines on its dangerous path to war.
Who would invest in a country that wants to be Ukraine 2.0?
It also should be noted that corruption is a significant problem in the Philippines, as well as across Southeast Asia. People live in such poverty that when they become wealthy, they adopt a mindset of "taking as much as you can while you can." They never consider growing their business partnerships for mutual benefit, and so everyone loses.
With Marco jr it will get worse by day.

leaving the philippines or left the philippines? clearly those companies left the philippines during the time of the previous adminstrations but you are telling it just like it is leaving because of the present admin... clearly you are against this admin and probabably a china propagandist
what a joke, the fact that top tier companies are leaving your country meant your country are in trouble, it is no longer attractive or useful to them, does not matter who runs the country, in fact, the current admin only make things worse, think about it, already companies are leaving, then, hope for others to come, BUT Philippines is now a BIG target, who will dare to come? investments take time, 3-8 years for ROI, who will wait that long when at any time, all kinds of proxy wars can happen. does not even need a military conflict, just disruption to power or raw materials will be bad enough. in the past, China still invests in the Philippines in spite of the sea conflict, should have continue to engage China on the conflict while still getting China to develop the Philippines. look at what Vietnam is doing, they even fought a real bloody war, yet Vietnam is booming from the former enemy, Vietnam swallowed their pride and decided realistically, and they are becoming more powerful and wealthy from their former enemy BUT stupid Philippine who has too much pride and thinks like a American lapdog, go and get chine's enemy. the us, to their country and make themselves a big target, now, China has to target those bases and support infrastructure in any conflict, sure to have big collateral damages to the place, meanwhile what has the us bring into the Philippines, any investment? with the Americans there, did it attract more investment or the opposite? while the rest of Asean trying very hard to not have American bases on their soil, Philippines instead of thinking with their brains, think with their hearts are self-destructing. as long as those bases are there, Philippines has become a proxy front line and no businesses will invest there for sure, other than those supporting the bases, in the past, when the Americans were in the Philippines, a lot of the economy revolves around those bases, Philippine hands and bodies will be sacrificed on it.
