Strong stimulus to keep PH afloat

The Philippine economy will likely remain "resilient" for the rest of the year due to a strong agricultural sector and the multiplier effects of government spending, despite the threats posed by higher crude oil prices and the fallout of the natural calamities in Japan.

Understanding this economical issue makes me proud to be a natural born Philippine citizen. As said and or stated in this article, we Filipinos still have the courage to fight and survive all current struggles and problems our country is facing today. Problems like the continuous rising or soaring of budgets and prices in our country, oil, transportation fares and other resources we need for living I admit concerns us all immediately. Maybe some won't mind these kinds of issues because they still can handle it but sooner or later they will come to their senses and conclude that this indeed is a big problem to our society. It is a good thing for us that we still have our agricultural sector or resources to look up to, It can still help our country survive for the rest of the days, weeks and months that follow.

Our agriculture plays a big part to everyone in the Philippines but it mostly affects the natural born and naturalized citizens. The agricultural sector can still manage to cope up with the economy therefore making it a stable one. To relate this issue to my own personal means of living each day, I say it is indeed a factor that we should make a big deal out of. I imagine myself, dealing with the continuous price hikes that would later make our country experience an inflation to the economy as well, being a disaster because we would also experience shortages with the people demanding for goods and resources that make our means of living. We would keep getting shortages but sadly the economy cannot handle it anymore for we don't acquire enough money later on to balance the prices of our country. As a regular student, I won't be able to continue my education if these prices continue to rise, because we would not be able to manage and balance it financially.

Eventually, like I stated that shortages will continue to occur and we can't make the most out of our means of living everyday anymore. To conclude, I am happy that our government can still manage our economy throughout all the prices hikes. I am very thankful for our country for being such a rich nation in terms of the agricultural resources.
