Country Governance Assessment - Philippines
Asian Development Bank | December 2005
Abstract
Independence from Spain on June 12,1898 marked the beginning of a period of transition for Philippines, as it sought to develop the democratic institutions and civil processes that were consistent with a market-driven economy. Faced with a decline in national income, increasing poverty, and high levels of unemployment, the Government has made significant progress in putting in place the framework and strategies for the broad-based growth that is required for job creation and a reduction in overall poverty levels.
