Community Based Poverty Monitoring in the Philippines (2)

[jambroco]

Corruption in the government, rebellion by various factions, these are main factors that deter foreign investors.

[MrPokerman5250]

Foreign investors will help a lot in solving poverty and joblessness in the country ! but where are they ? they seems to be shying away from Philippines and favoring ather nation like : China, Vietnam, Taiwan, Indonesia, Malaysia etc. What do those countries can offer ,that Philippines can't? Philippine gov't should strive hard to lure foreign investors to stay, by means of Tax insentives and given land ownership !

Mali kasi mentalidad ng Pinoy, gusto natin mag-aral na mabuti para makapasok ng trabaho, kaya ngayon puro diplomadong trabahador tayo, kulang sa employer, dapat ibahin naman, mag-aral na mabuti para magkaroon ng sariling kabuhayan, negosyo.

[gemayana]

I so agree with you

[prettyboynelson]

Ang mga nasa ibaba ay iyong mga salita hindi akin; Siguro hindi "lang" tayo nagkausap at nagkaintindihan sa i-isang lengguwahe, redsoil:=)

Ito ang lumabas sa pagsusuri ng mga experto at hindi nangangahulugan na anti poor people,kasi nga ito nalang ang most viable reused infrastructure.Siempre bago ikumbert ang """dumbsite""" to a park ay tapos na itong gamitin at nai recycle na yung mga bagay na recyclabe. --- post 2.

And this is what you said, not I.

[prettyboynelson]

"""Dumbsite""" cannot be converted to a residential area because it's ground is soft & fear of methane gas escaping through atmosphere.The most viable ay tabunan ng lupa at latagan ng bermuda grass to be like a park or golfcourse....post 1.

Other thread: "Smokey Mountain in peripheral side of Manila, Philippines" type it and search.

[prettyboynelson]

correction: I say, it is a very creative idea, golf course.

[prettyboynelson]

First of all, I am not saying that it is a dumb opinion; but you are (just peep into the other thread where you dalled dumpsite as dumbsites in Phils.)

That is, I say very creative idea, golf sites; but for Philippines' situation that is inappropriate; just imagine who will just benefit a golf course? But we need to be more creative profit-wise; convert it to energy or something else profitable to give jobs to those living beside those as you said, dumBsites.

[redsoil5]

Kung ayaw nyo ng pagbabago bahala kayo.Yan ang way nila dito sa Amerika.Kung dumb na matatawag ito ay paano yung smart way?

[prettyboynelson]

Anyway, as a sort of a lesson; a "dumpsite" is different from a DUMBSITE...and I am quite certain; there is no "DUMBsite" in Philippines; dumpsite, there is yes.

DumP - is a waste disposal site

DumB - is an "offensive term" meaning unintelligent; as having a low level of intelligence; it is an INSULT.

[prettyboynelson]

And implementing that won't PUSH the corrupt people to render service to the rightful beneficiaries.

Funny; to know their income? job?; a beggar will be monitored how juch he begged (job: beggar) for a day. For a child who picks up trash daily....?

[redsoil5]

Kailangan muna ng accountability ng populasyon ng buong Pilipinas.Bawat tao bata man o matanda ay mabigyan ng social security number(ito ay magiging identity nila for life) ng sa gayon ay i pi feed ito sa central data base.Ngayon ay malalaman ang bilang ng tao,their income ,job at iba pang data para malaman kung sino talaga ang nangangailangan o hindi at maiiwasan ang pandaraya at paulit ulit na pagbibigay tulong sa mga tao.

Hey, dude; just wondering if you really know what you're sayin'

Your opinion is preposterous & flabby for a guy who brag about where he stood.

Dumbsite? And you are giving an opinion to a people you call dumbs? Whether it's a mistake or intentional act; it neither gives you any credit dude.

Statistics showed 92M as of July, 2008 & counting....you don't need to implement that wacky suggestion to know no. of poorest people around you; it's just plain stupid.

[tolantandhumble]

poverty in Manila Philippines?

Poor people are still smoking, taking durgs, drinking alcahol. and have money to enjoy the karaoke, and computer games

All squatter have free electric , water, free rent.

and inside of their home they have tv, washing machine, ref, music center

The barangay near us are always drunk.

[brothersvend1]

c´mon philippines you can do better..

think how to fight poverty

fight the power of the church who doesnt believe in science,

use prevention instead of unwanted child...

think liberal..

the church are against for all the preventions.

think of the unwanted children that will suffer just because you forgot or your religion forbids you to use prevention..

think about it..you are the one whose making decision..

Ha!!! Salita mo lang ay di ko na maintindihan dahil hinde tagalog at saka huwag mong sabihin na di ka kumikita ng pera dyan,,,,sinungaling ka!!

[communitywork]

We hope to be able to implement community based management systems, but the costs are prohibitive when the local executives cannot be convinced to fund the CBMS.
