They should shed their bordered mindset and adopt to the new reality of a borderless world. The Philippines is no longer the Island Philippines but the community of Filipinos all over the world.

And the appropriate government response is to provide more training institutes so that supply can meet demand. Maybe, to reform the education department so that we produce more graduates with marketable skills. It's also high time that our bureaucrats dream global, think global, and act global. To gather global statistics and study the global demand for manpower. This is only appropriate with the Philippines being a global manpower supplier.taoharuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07542183486382288494noreply@blogger.com
