Semiconductors,Philippines,Workforce Shortage

The Philippine semiconductor industry, despite its significant role in global assembly, testing, and packaging, is hampered by a severe shortage of skilled workers. This talent gap threatens the growth of a sector poised for expansion. Addressing this issue through investment in STEM education is crucial to realize the Philippines' potential in the booming global semiconductor market.

The Philippine semiconductor industry, while a significant player in global assembly, testing, and packaging, faces a critical hurdle: a severe shortage of skilled workers. This talent gap, as highlighted by former Intel executive Glenn Kiro and corroborated by Oxford Economics, is stifling the growth of a sector poised for explosive expansion.

PISA scores paint a stark picture. The Philippines’ dismal ranking in mathematics and science highlights a critical weakness in the nation’s educational system. This is not merely an academic concern; it’s a direct impediment to economic growth. The lack of a robust STEM pipeline means the country is unable to supply the skilled workforce needed to attract and retain semiconductor companies.

The recent triumph of the Technological University of the Philippines in a nationwide contest for integrated circuit and semiconductor designs signals a bright future, showcasing the remarkable talent and potential that exist within the country. Nonetheless, this achievement merely scratches the surface.
