unemployment!!!

this is the first word that hit me when i read today’s headline of manila bulletin [3 m student graduating]. of the 3 million graduates this year, 437,000 will be from college[not counting the technical-vocational graduates estimated at 800,000 this year].

wow! another million of newly graduates will be added to 5 million unemployed filipinos.

comparing with other regions, ours is the highest which stood almost at 12%. thailand and malaysia tend to drop theirs while ours continue to rise at a significant rate.

of course there are lots of factors involve, from, to economy, to government initiatives, to research development and others that tend to become a domino effect of problems.

whew!!! what a problem…
