Citing the country’s macroeconomic fundamentals and enabling policies as among the main reasons that make the Philippines a leading investment destination, President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. noted how the Philippine economy expanded by 5.7 percent last year and 7.8 percent in the first half of this year.
Marcos also cited enabling policies and investor-friendly laws that seek to “leverage game-changing reforms.” “Another strong point is our human capital. We boast of a young, educated, hardworking, and English-speaking workforce that is among the best in the world,” said Marcos.
