CHAPTER 1

THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND

INTRODUCTION

Consistently, inflation rate in the Philippines has turned into the characterizing

element of our monetary way of life and our own money related status also. It is basic to

see how and why inflation happens on the planet we live in.

Incorporated into this examination think about are the causes and impact of

inflation amid its high and low. While understanding, it is meant to give a valuable data

about inflation and see how this occur in our regular day to day existence.

In a normal native, the fundamental impact on inflation rate is the possibility that

it is the proportion of the estimation of our cash and the costs of merchandise and

enterprises. It is said that the lower rate is the better for the nation. That is, the lower rate

of the inflation, the lower costs of fundamental products. In a nation like Philippines, this

general thought is by all accounts extremely hard to comprehend on the grounds that

regardless of how the administration say the inflation is showing signs of improvement,

individuals can't see it on the grounds that the costs of products and enterprises are

getting higher.

Cash runs the economy. It needs more business to work and more clients to

belittle the products and enterprises to profit in the market circle. It needs more cash to

lessen the costs but with the rising inflation in the market circle it seems purchasing
DR. YANGA’S COLLEGES, INC. 3

power decreases too. Purchasing power is the ability of one person to buy what he or she

needs to sustain its living.

With pay expands falling behind rising inflation, you can anticipate that your

wallet will keep on taking a beating as the typical cost for basic items increments in

pretty much every part of day by day life. Be that as it may, endeavor to watch out for the

long haul. In spite of the fact that you may need to decrease spending in a few zones,

don't give the present high costs a chance to demoralize you from putting something

aside for tomorrow's needs.

With these factors we must consider in order to live, various precisions will came

up in people’s mind who are greatly affected by this issue. This mind may agree and

disagree with the NEDA’s statement about the inflation. In this research the researcher

will tackle about how many of the populations percentage will agree either disagree with

this statement of the said department. This study aims to identify which Socio- Economic

status are greatly affected by this. This research might help the government to know their

focus who are the cluster of people needs major assistance.

BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

Cost of Living is the cost of maintaining a certain standard of living. Changes in

the cost of living over time are often operationalized in a cost of living index. Cost of

living calculations are also used to compare the cost of maintaining a certain standard of

living in different geographic areas. Differences in cost of living between locations can

also be measured in terms of purchasing power parity rates. Purchasing power decreases

when the monetary value decreases. it With the consistent rise of inflation in the
DR. YANGA’S COLLEGES, INC. 4

Philippines it is such a burden for everyone to live specifically those providers either

parents to survive with this.

The Economist Intelligence Unit produces a semi-annual (twice yearly)

worldwide cost of living survey that compares more than 400 individual prices across

160 products and services. They include food, drink, clothing, household supplies and

personal care items, home rents, transport, utility bills, private schools, domestic help and

recreational costs.

The survey itself is an internet tool designed to calculate cost-of-living allowances

and build compensation packages for corporate executives maintaining a western

lifestyle. The survey incorporates easy-to-understand comparative cost of living indices

between cities. The survey allows city-to-city comparisons, but for the purpose of this

report all cities are compared to a base city of New York City, which has an index set at

100. The survey has been carried out for more than 30 years.

The most recent survey was published in March 2017. Singapore remains the

most expensive city in the world for the fourth year running, in a rare occurrence where

the entire top five most expensive cities were unchanged from the year prior.

Sydney and Melbourne have both cemented their positions as top-ten staples, with

Sydney becoming the fifth most expensive, and Melbourne becoming the sixth. Asia is

home to more than five most expensive cities in the top twenty but also home to eight

cheapest cities of the cheapest ten.


DR. YANGA’S COLLEGES, INC. 5

Due to some fluctuations and inflation that is happening the cost of living in every

society varies. Inflation is defined in economics as a sustained increase in price level of

goods and services in an economy over a period of time. Thus, price inflation diminishes

individuals’ capacity to pay for goods. The idea at a fundamental level states that if a

worker’s wages stay relentless, yet the cost of products build, at that point employees can

afford fewer goods. (Carter McBride, 2007)

Recently, reported at the CNN Philippines, during a press conference amid the

worsening inflation rate and its effect especially to ordinary Filipinos, undersecretary

Rosemarie Edillon said that a family of five (5) can survive with a ten thousand pesos (

Php 10 000) budget monthly. Further, she added that a family earning a Php 10 000 is not

poor.

Many of the senators antagonize the statement due to their view that it is

unrealistic.

This trending issue will be further discuss in this research. This aims to know the

quantitative value of a certain community who disagrees with this statement.

Furthermore, this research aims to know also the greatest portion of which factor

contributes the most for the respondents to disagree.

THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK

a. Mixed Demand Inflation


DR. YANGA’S COLLEGES, INC. 6

The issue of distinguishing the essential nature-and basic wellspring of inflation

proceeds. Does inflation emerge from the demand side of the products, factor and

resource markets or from the supply side or from some blend of the two—the alleged

mixed inflation. Numerous financial specialists have come to trust that the genuine

procedure of inflation is neither because of demand pull alone, nor because of cost-push

alone, however because of a blend of both the components of demand pull and cost-

push—called mixed inflation.

The procedure might be started either by demand pull or by cost-push yet it can't

be kept up except if different powers likewise work movement. The significant

distinction between the two speculations of the inflationary procedure fixates on the

responsiveness of both the cash wages and costs to change popular. The individuals who

trust that there is wage and value adaptability in the economy contend for demand pull

inflation; on the grounds that such adaptability renders it outlandish for any cost incited

inflationary pattern to support itself.

Then again, the individuals who trust that wages and costs are not adaptable

accentuate the cost-push hypothesis or inflation. Neither one of the approaches taken

independent from anyone else ought to be viewed as a totally tasteful clarification of the

reason and nature of inflation—both the methodologies are supplementary instead of

aggressive (or option) as clarifications of the reason for inflation. The adjoining Figures

indicate instances of mixed inflation.

b. Cost Push Inflation


DR. YANGA’S COLLEGES, INC. 7

The hypothesis of cost-push inflation wound up prevalent amid and after the

Second World War. This hypothesis keeps up that costs as opposed to being pulled-up by

abundant demand are additionally pushed-up because of an ascent in the cost of creation.

Under cost-push inflation costs ascend by virtue of an ascent in the cost of crude

materials, particularly compensation. The theory holds that the fundamental clarification

for inflation is the way that a few makers, gathering of specialists or both, prevail with

regards to raising the costs for either their item or administrations over the levels that

would win under more aggressive conditions.

As it were, inflationary weights begin with supply as opposed to demand and

spread all through the economy. Inflation of the cost-push compose begin in enterprises

which are generally gathered and in which merchants can practice significant prudence in

the detailing of the two costs and wages. Cost-push inflation may not be conceivable in

an economy described by unadulterated rivalry.

Since this inflation is because of the powers of cost and supply, it isn't liable to

simple treatment in light of the fact that financial and money related measures may fix a

cost inflation just to the detriment of expanding joblessness and slower development.

That is the reason many cost-push inflation specialists advocate alleviation instead of end

of inflation.

The procedure of inflation is caused not by an abundance of interest but rather by

increment in cost, especially when components of creation endeavor to expand their offer

of the aggregate item by raising their honors or factor costs called cost-push inflation.
DR. YANGA’S COLLEGES, INC. 8

It is caused by the imposing business model components either in the work

advertise when there is wage-push or in the wares showcase when there is profit push yet

for the most part it is because of wage-push which builds the cost of generation and

subsequently costs. It has been watched as of late that in numerous nations guilds have

turned out to be intense so they can get wage increments relatively consistently

significantly in abundance of the general normal increment in yield per man-hour.

c. The Demand-Pull Inflation

The theory of interest pull inflation identifies with what might be known as the

conventional theory of inflation.

The embodiment of this theory is that inflation is caused by an over abundance of

interest (spending) with respect to the accessible supply of merchandise and enterprises at

existing costs.

As per classical's, the key factor is the cash supply on the grounds that as per the

amount theory of cash just an inflation in the cash supply is fit for raising the general

value level.

In present day salary theory, be that as it may, demand pull is deciphered to mean

an abundance of total cash demand in respect to the economy's full business yield level.

The theory accept that costs for products and enterprises and in addition for monetary

assets are receptive to free market activity powers, and will, subsequently, moves

promptly upward under the weight of an abnormal state of total demand.


DR. YANGA’S COLLEGES, INC. 9

Business analysts like Friedman, Hawtrey, Golden Weiser, who see inflation as a

simply fiscal wonder, emphatically bolster this hypothesis of inflation caused by

abundance cash supply. The over abundance demand in the economy creates inferable

from substantial scale speculation use either in people in general or in the private segment,

in this manner surpassing the aggregate yield.

Because of this abundance demand, costs will rise and overabundance demand

inflation or demand pull inflation comes to exist. Therefore, we locate that as per this

theory of demand pull inflation, costs ascend in light of an overabundance of total

demand over existing supply of merchandise and ventures caused by an inflation in the

amount of cash—bringing about a fall of financing costs—expanding speculation uses

and costs. Be that as it may, demand pull inflation may likewise be caused without an

inflation in cash supply—when MEC or MPC goes up causing an Inflation in

consumptions and consequently costs. Since inflation is because of overabundance

demand, it is viewed as controllable by the demand lessening money related and financial

arrangements.

Abundance demand approach is additionally created by Bent Hansen, Keynes,

Wicksell and Sweedish financial experts. Their view is that the general cost is dictated by

the aggregate interest for and add up to supply of products similarly as the cost of any

great is controlled by the powers of interest and supply for it.

As per them inflation is a circumstance caused by overabundance demand, in

which the aggregate interest for merchandise as estimated by the volume of cash offered

is in abundance of supply of products at winning costs. However, a more profound


DR. YANGA’S COLLEGES, INC. 10

investigation will demonstrate that there is almost no contrast between the two

methodologies, that is, the approach of amount theory bolstered by Milton Friedman that

overabundance demand is caused by abundance cash supply, particularly when it is

understood that abundance demand can wind up successful just by methods for an

expanded supply of cash.

Inflation is a dynamic disequilibrium process. It suggests an unfaltering increment

in the value level after some time. At the point when financing costs ascend to a

sufficiently high level, the interest for cash will turn out to be absolutely inelastic

regarding the rate of premium. Now there are not any more theoretical adjusts to be had,

endeavors to obtain finances either will be baffled or, in view of the resultant increment

in loan fees, will cause the relinquishment of different endeavors. At the point when the

interest for cash ends up inelastic, all assets are utilized for exchange purposes, and

further increments in the total demand would then be able to be financed just by a

decrease in uses somewhere else in the economy or by an inflation in the exchanges

speed of cash. Along these lines, eventually cash supply is the causal factor.

CONCEPTUAL PARADIGM

The analysts detail an applied outline wherein the thoughts or connection of the

factors can be delineated effortlessly. Through the visual portrayal of the factors it is

obvious that the factors are interconnected to each other. Since the focal point of the

investigation is the exactness of the respondents relating to the announcement of NEDA,

the highest figure symbolizes the accuracy of the respondents it is associated with the
DR. YANGA’S COLLEGES, INC. 11

Individuals. The people was being associated with the Cost of Living and Inflation. The

societal position will be determined through the people's occupation. There are essential

necessities that a man needs, this were the expenses each human needs to go along that

develops the idea of Cost of Living. In the interim, the essential needs of a man was

being influenced by the inflation wherein when the cost of the products a man needs

increment, the Cost of Living will increment as well.

HYPOTHESIS

Inflation is both a need and a weight. To influence a nation to survive a little

inflation is a great help to influence it's economy to develop in light of the fact that it

urges the general population to spend as opposed to spare, in the interim when expansion

is too high it isn't useful for the economy or people since high inflation can deliver low

development and increment the quantities of unemployment.

Cost of living and inflation rate are interconnected with each other. If the inflation

rate builds then the average cost for basic necessity will likewise rise. According to

Michelle Ulman " cost of living is the average cost of an accepted standard living that

includes basic necessity, meanwhile inflation is the cost of goods and services that rises."

Therefore, if the cost are 0.65 peso of each 1.00 peso that an average family acquires,

then even living an average life can cost a lot more.

SCOPE AND LIMITATION

The scope of this study are the people around the Bocaue specially those

barangay’s around Dr. Yanga's Colleges Inc. that includes the different social statuses of

the respondents. The researchers doesn't requires any qualification except the age of the

respondents for the assurance that they know the current issue/s that the survey will be

tackling about. Being a researcher, you need to do a survey to those people that knows

what is your topic is all about to avoid bias or misinformation. That's why we, the
DR. YANGA’S COLLEGES, INC. 14

researchers, needs 16 years old people and above in answering the survey. This research

needs information in near by places that's the focus of our research is only here at the

vicinity of Bocaue. As a researcher they need to have limitations when it comes on

gathering informations because if the research will be approved, it can't be changed

anymore but it can be the base of a new research topic. Randomization is visible also in

the research, it doesn't matter if you are single or lady or man but the thing that only

matters is the age. The survey that will be happening in the near future is very important

for the researchers for them to gather informations and for them also to get new ideas.

SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY

To Students

With the sudden change in our societal system it is undeniable that students

are affected too with the increase rate of the inflation. This study aims to broaden the

knowledge of the student about the situation so that they can adjust their needs and learn

how to adapt with this dilemma. In line with this students must know their privileges

that the government imply to lessen the burden of inflation for the students.

To Parents

One of the major holder of the burden that the inflation brought is the parents or

the guardian who are working t sustain a family. This research aims to give alternative

solution for the meantime so that they can adjust and adapt with this dilemma. This aims

to find ways for them to lessen their burden they are bringing.

To Workers
DR. YANGA’S COLLEGES, INC. 15

This might be essential for those who are working most especially for those who

are sustaining their family. This research might help them to cope up and find alternative

solution so that the inflation may not bring so much burden for them. It is also essential

for them to know the consequences of inflation so that they can prepare their selves

facing this issue. This research also aims to inform them what are the causes and

precaution that the government was doing to decrease the rate of inflation.

REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE

DEFINITION OF INFLATION

Inflation estimates the yearly rate increment in costs. The most regular measure is

that of retail costs. The legislature distributes a file of retail costs every month, and the

rate of inflation is the rate increment in that file over the past a year.

"When prices of commodities rise, we refer to it as inflation. If prices fall, however, this

is normally referred to as negative inflation or deflation." (Caparas, Ma. Teresa D., 2000,

Economic Issue of the Day). There are two noteworthy composes of inflation, in

particular, the demand pull and the cost-push expansion. Demand pull expansion happens

when there are increments in buyer demand and generation does not increment.

“It is the nonstop increase in the general level of prices which is measured as an

annual percentage increase.” (Villamayor, Yves Von V., 2016, How Inflation Rate

Affects in the Filipino People). Inflation rate is the rate of progress of a value record after

some time. It is broadly figured by computing the development of progress in a value list.

The National Insights Office of the Philippines estimates the inflation rate in the

Philippines. Each youthful understudy, each profession people, even the observers in the

road or even every plain housewife, in any case are altogether prepared somehow by

expansion.
DR. YANGA’S COLLEGES, INC. 18

“To a person with economics training, a rise in inflation usually takes place when,

because of vigorous economic conditions, demand for the factors of production-labor ,

land, credit an raw materials and their production supplies-are exerting downward

pressure on their availabilities, so that bidding up of prices results.” (Romero, Rudy,

2015, What a Low Inflation Rate Indicates). Solid interest for Gross domestic product

segments hauls factor costs, and accordingly the expansion rate upwards. There has been

no such circumstance in the previous two years. Despite what might be expected, there

has been a considerable measure of slack in the economy: no upward value weight in the

business sectors for work and alternate components of creation. Absolutely not for work,

given that the Philippines, an Underdeveloped nation, is by definition a work surplus

economy.

“The “Economy Killers” of the Philippines were bad government finances and

inflation.” (Mangun, John, 2018, Inflation: So what?). The organization of Gloria

Macapagal-Arroyo began dealing with the first. The administration spending deficiency

as a level of Gross Domestic Product diminished, from 5 percent to the present 3 percent.

The Philippine government obligation to Gross domestic product has been diminished to

42 percent, from 70 percent in 2004. Notwithstanding, in the event that you track

inflation to monetary development, the photo isn't beautiful. We don't generally observe

an "expansion up; development down" situation. However, what we do witness is

expansion ceasing or abating an uptrend in development and deferring a financial

recuperation.

“Inflation is dead” stated by Josef T. Yap, 2000, Inflation and Economic Growth

in the Philippines. This high handed presentation by individuals like Lester Thurow and
DR. YANGA’S COLLEGES, INC. 19

Roger Bootie is erroneous madmay be founded on imperfect hypotheses or shallow

experimental evidence. What entangles the investigation of the connection amongst

inflation and yield development are exogenous supply stuns in the previous two decades

and the way in which monetary directors reacted to these stuns. Arrangements to balance

out the economy brought about scenes of stagflation. Inflation along these lines decreases

however simply after a slack while contractionary consequences for yield continue what's

more, in the long run deliver supply bottlenecks that contribute over again to inflationary

weight. Measures to hose total demand are again executed however the endless loop is as

it were rehashed. This is another point to the commonplace blast bust cycle.

VARIOUS CAUSES OF INFLATION

According to Sean Ross, 2018, How Does Money Supply Affects Inflation. The theory

most talked about in the connection amongst costs and the cash supply is known as the

theory of cash. The amount theory proposes the trade estimation of cash is resolved like

some other great, with free market activity. The fundamental condition for the amount

theory, created by American market analyst Irving Fisher, is communicated as: (add up to

cash supply) x (speed of cash) = (normal value level) x (volume of financial exchanges).

To start with, as the national obligation per capital builds, the probability of the

legislature defaulting on its obligation benefit commitment increments, and accordingly

the Treasury Office should raise the yield on recently issued treasury securities to draw in

new speculators. This decreases the measure of expense income accessible to spend on

other administrative administrations since more duty income should be paid out as

enthusiasm on the national obligation. After some time, this move in consumption will
DR. YANGA’S COLLEGES, INC. 20

make individuals encounter a lower expectation for everyday life, as obtaining for

monetary upgrade ventures turns out to be more troublesome.

In conclusion, and maybe in particular, as the danger of a nation defaulting on its

obligation benefit commitment builds, the nation loses its social, financial and political

power. This, thus, makes the national obligation level a national security issue. (Adkins,

Troy, 2018, What the National Debt Means to You)

Demand Draw Expansion includes inflation ascending as genuine GDP rises and

joblessness falls, as the economy moves along the Phillips Bend. Demand Force

Expansion is ordinarily portrayed as "a lot of cash pursuing excessively couple of

products".

All the more precisely, it ought to be depicted as including "a lot of cash spent

pursuing excessively couple of products", since just cash that is spent on merchandise

and enterprises can cause expansion. This isn't relied upon to happen except if the

economy is as of now at a full business level. The term demand pull expansion is

generally connected with Keynesian financial aspects. (Agarwal, Prateek, 2018, Demand-

Pull Inflation)

Cost push expansion is inflation caused by an expansion in costs of sources of

info like work, crude material, and so on. The expanded cost of the components of

creation prompts a diminished supply of these products. While the demand stays

consistent, the costs of wares increment causing an ascent in the general value level. This

is basically fetched push expansion.


DR. YANGA’S COLLEGES, INC. 21

For this situation, the general cost level increments because of higher expenses of

generation which reflects as far as expanded costs of merchandise and products which

significantly utilize these sources of info. This is expansion activated from supply side

i.e. on account of less supply. The contrary impact of this is called demand pull

expansion where higher demand triggers inflation. (Bennett, Coleman, Co., 2018, The

Definition of Cost-Push Inflation)

Inflation is firmly identified with loan fees, which can impact trade rates. Nations

endeavor to adjust loan costs and inflation, however the interrelationship between the two

is mind boggling and regularly hard to oversee. Low financing costs goad purchaser

spending and monetary development, and for the most part positive impacts on money

esteem. On the off chance that buyer spending increments to the point where demand

surpasses supply, inflation may follow, which isn't really a terrible result. Be that as it

may, low loan costs don't usually pull in remote venture. Higher loan costs have a

tendency to draw in remote speculation, which is probably going to expand the interest

for a nation's cash.

A definitive assurance of the esteem and conversion standard of a country's

money is the apparent attractive quality of holding that country's cash. That discernment

is affected by a large group of financial variables, for example, the strength of a country's

administration and

economy. Financial specialists' first thought as to money, before whatever benefits they

may understand, is the well being of holding trade resources out the cash. On the off

chance that a nation is seen as politically or financially precarious or if there is any


DR. YANGA’S COLLEGES, INC. 22

noteworthy probability of a sudden downgrading or other change in the estimation of the

nation's money, speculators tend to bashful far from the cash and are hesitant to hold it

for critical periods or in huge sums. (N.A., 2018, How Does Inflation Affect the

Exchange Rate)

VARIATION OF INFLATION

At the point when the general value level with the goal that expansion rate winds

up negative, it is called Deflation. It is the inverse of the Inflation.

A decrease in cash supply or credit accessibility is the purpose behind flattening

as a rule. Lessened speculation spending by government or people may likewise prompt

this circumstance. Emptying prompts an issue of expanded joblessness because of slack

sought after. (Bennett, Coleman, Co., 2018, Definition of Deflation)

There are a few principle reasons that can make an economy encounter

disinflation. In the event that a national bank chooses to force a more tightly fiscal

strategy and the administration begins to auction a portion of its securities, it could

diminish the supply of cash in the economy, causing a disinflationary impact.

Correspondingly, a withdrawal in the business cycle, or a subsidence can likewise cause

disinflation. (N.A., 2018, Disinflation)

There are various traps to hyperinflation. Individuals will tend to accumulate

merchandise — including perishables like sustenance — on account of rising costs,

which thus, can make deficiencies in reserves. Reserve funds wind up useless,

influencing buyers' primary concerns. Furthermore, on the grounds that individuals aren't
DR. YANGA’S COLLEGES, INC. 23

saving their cash, monetary organizations and loan specialists may leave business.

Assessment incomes likewise fall, which means governments can't stay aware of giving

essential administrations. Printing more cash turns into the main choice, aggravating the

hyperinflation even. (N.A., 2018, Hyperinflation)

There are two principle speculations on what causes stagflation. One hypothesis

expresses that this financial marvel is caused when a sudden increment in the cost of oil

decreases an economy's gainful limit. Since transportation costs rise, delivering items and

motivating them to racks gets more costly and costs rise even as individuals get laid off.

Another hypothesis is that the conjunction of stagnation and expansion are

consequences of low quality monetary strategy. Essentially enabling inflation to go wild,

and after that all of a sudden snapping the reins on expansion is one case of poor strategy

that some have contended can add to stagflation, while others refer to unforgiving

direction of business sectors, products and work joined with enabling national banks to

print intemperate measures of cash are refered to as another conceivable reason for

stagflation. (N.A., 2018, Stagflation)

“The notions of inflation and deflation are not praxeological concepts. They were

not created by economists, but by the mundane speech of the public and of politicians.”

(Mises, 2018,Implications for the Debate on Free Banking). The main point we ought to

consider is that Mises comments that the term inflation isn't a praxeological term

originating from financial aspects, yet a thought that originates from political or famous

utilize. Consequently, the word inflation does not have the precision anticipated that

would be found in a hypothetical term, turning into a dubious and messy concept.
DR. YANGA’S COLLEGES, INC. 24

IMPACTS OF INFLATION

“Inflation was necessary to prevent the Paradox of Thrift . If consumer prices are

allowed to fall consistently because the country is becoming too productive, consumers

learn to hold off their purchases to wait for a better deal. The net effect of this paradox is

to reduce aggregate demand, leading to less production, layoffs and a faltering

economy.”(Keynes, John Maynard, 2018, How Can Inflation Be Good for the

Economy?)

The paradox states that an increase in autonomous saving leads to a decrease in

aggregate demand and thus a decrease in gross- output which will in turn lower total

saving. The paradox is, narrowly speaking, that total saving may fall because of

individuals' attempts to increase their saving, and, broadly speaking, that increase in

saving may be harmful to an economy. Both the narrow and broad claims are paradoxical

within the assumption underlying the fallacy of composition, namely that what is true of

the parts must be true of the whole. The narrow claim transparently contradicts this

assumption, and the broad one does so by implication, because while individual thrift is

generally averred to be good for the economy, the paradox of thrift holds that collective

thrift may be bad for the economy.

“Actually, we can survive with [P10,000] a month as long as we all stop

breathing”(Lacson,P. ,2018)

With the excruciating increment of cost of products in the market, it is certain that

getting by for your reality is an awesome fight that each family was battling for. To

spending plan the 10 000 worth of cash in the Philippines you should just eat once a day
DR. YANGA’S COLLEGES, INC. 25

to guarantee that 10 000 will be sufficient for a month. It isn't the violations or unlawful

killings who are slaughtering the general population yet it is our framework that chokes

out us with the agonizing costs in the market.

“Poverty incidence had gone up in the last 10 years and with the implementation

of TRAIN law, every Filipino worker should receive a substantial wage increase to cope

with higher prices and inflation,” (Porras, R. 2018)

The execution of the TRAIN didn't reduce the weight of Pilipino specialists rather

it is another incumbrance that each national needs to shoulder. The weight spread

additionally even to the non-laborer individuals of the Philippines which makes the poor

much poorer. With the considerable expansion that is continously occuring in the nation,

the compensations of the employees don't increment. In accordance with that surviving

turn out to be all the more battling because of this unbalance happening wherein average

cost for basic items increments thus the compensations or salaries that the workers are

getting doesn't fit any longer to manage a family.

“We will ask the Department of Finance and other government agencies to

carefully study the suspension of excise taxes on fuel because of the continued increase in
