Noong 2013, nakakuha ang Pilipinas ng kauna-unahang investment-grade rating na nagpapataas ng tiwala ng mga negosyante na mamuhunan sa bansa. BALIKAN:

An investment grade status opens up the country to more investments that can lead to additional jobs and funds for infrastructure, and help create sustainable economic growth.

These improvements, the debt watcher said, made the country's strong economic and moderate budget deficits in line with investment-grade status. The credit rater also recounted the low fiscal revenue of the Philippines maybe below investment-grade standard, but the recent sin tax law should allow the government to rake in more tax revenues.

Finance Secretary Cesar V. Purisima also welcomed the rating upgrade, saying this "opens up more sources of financing for our businesses, lowers the cost of borrowing, and encourages more investments, which in turn will lead to more jobs and greater incomes for our people."

And then Duterte got elected so now it went down the toilet. What a shame.

Then this administration came and just messed everything up.

I miss the days when we had a leader who worked hard to give jobs to Filipinos.
