Question

i need it ASAP

Answer 1

Poverty in Phil is only imagination of some filipinos living abroad as humiliation, every nation poverty has there, don't tell me that there is no beggar or homeless in the US or even UK,

The exact history of poverty way back to stone age era.

Answer 2

It starts with CARP when people got land they didn't want to maintain, so they sold it and went to the Big City to get rich. Are there jobs for farmers in the Big City? No.

Came part #2.... Squatters and my favorite destructor of Philippines, Joey Lina and his Lina Law. Whatever makes you think that the old saying that your home is your castle applies here?

Example: Why in the world should Northrail pay some thieves that built a house right on the railroad tracks? I would set MILF in them. ☺

Another way of looking at this is the OFW. (I call this Luosechi's theorem).

"The wealth of a country is inversely proportional to the number of it's OFWs."

If a country is well off, nobody has to leave to survive.

(But I'm sorry this one has nothing to do with history. Just had to throw it in).

Answer 3

The Spanish invaded Phils and Mexico then both corrupt countries lived happily ever after.

Answer 4

This all began when the first Philippine chieftain or "datu" started spending tribal money on Rolex watches and extended vacations for his family.

Corruption... just do it.

Answer 5

Well as far as I know when Marcos comes to power in the Philippines, Philippines is the most developed country in South-east Asia, or can say in the region. When USA gave independence to Philippines, they still helped to developed it.Philippines was one of the growing tigers of Asia.

But when Marcos declared martial law, everything went downhill. Investors kept away and devaluation of the Peso.

Oil crisis of the 70s also affected this period of time as when US gives support to Israel, the oil producing arab countries cut down their oil production thus sending a crisis throughtout the world.

High inflation and higher commodities prices like now led to protests against Marcos and he himself overspend on the election period in 1969.

History judged a man. There is no such thing as exact history of poverty in the Philippines. There is a lot of factors ya? Can be the centralisation of the economy in Manila, Cebu and Subic/clark. Can be the distance and poor infrastruture of the Philippines?

Can be the corruption that grip the country and hold it to its track?
