PHILIPPINES 20/20 VISION – MORE OPPORTUNITIES

The Philippines is an archipelago with total land area of 300,000 square kilometres,

7,150+ islands and having the eighth longest coastlines (36,289 km.) in the entire world.

The country’s main advantage is its being an archipelagic island with 30% land mass

while the remaining 70% comprises 3,219 km. of waterways. It has a proven oil reserve

of 138.500 Million barrels and an oil production of 12,000 barrels per day. It is centrally

located in the busiest sea lane and commerce route in the Asia-Pacific region.

The country’s rainforest and body of water is one of the healthiest, vibrant, liveliest and

colourful scenes a visitor can find. It is home to some of the rarest species of mammals,

aquatic fishes, birds, plants, flora and fauna which are all unique and beautiful that can

only be found in this part of the world. Many foreign scientists came in drove just to be

delighted by the discoveries of more unique species and there are more un-discovered

species that are still to be found in the whole archipelago of the Philippines.

The projected total Philippine population for the year 2015 census will reached

105.720 Million. The country’s labor force survey (LFS) conducted last year of April

2014 reached the level of 63.773 Million strong workforces that belongs to younger

population of 15-years old and over. About 2.081 Million reach the age of 15-years

old annually and literacy rate is at its highest at (98%) ninety-eight percentages. More

than (80%) eighty percentage of its entire population are Roman Catholic and is one of

the countries identified by the World Bank and IMF for having the youngest population

in the whole world.

In terms of global comparative industrial productivity, transfer of knowledge and skills,

the Filipinos are English-speaking, easily train (can be train in just about (8) eight

weeks or 2-months), hardworking, friendly and is able to compete at the highest

levels among the best in the world.



PHILIPPINES 20/20 VISION – CHARTERING TO BIGGER MARKETS

The forthcoming integration of the 10-nations ASEAN Economic Community (AEC)

next January 2016 offers larger market opportunities and challenges outside of the

Philippines. The Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) are composed of

member states namely; Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar,

Philippines, Thailand, Singapore and Vietnam.

Once the harmonization of the different rules and standards are integrated and

completed by the year 2018; all goods, services, investment, capital and talents will be

highly mobile. Under the integration plan, tariffs on most goods coming from the 10-

nations ASEAN Economic Community (AEC) will be down to zero or near zero, and all

its financial systems will be integrated, while restrictions on employment will be eased.

The Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) of which our country – the

Philippines is a member state, is also set to become an attractive site for investors with

the economic integration, becomes a single market and production base. As this

developed, the ASEAN bloc is projected to receive huge investments as foreign

companies move to expand their businesses in a bid to take a bigger share of huge

market once integration is effected starting next year January 2016.

The needs for the development of the Philippines greenfield manufacturing industries in

the sectors of aerospace, automotive, electrical/electronics, high-technology plastics

such as composite carbon fibre and carbon fibre reinforce plastic (CFRP), engineering

plastics (high performance plastic) and shipbuilding, are all 21st. century industries.

Diversification & Continuing Development of these high-value added products are the

two major strategies that the Philippines can pursue in order to increase its merchandise

export and expand market opportunities beyond the 10 ASEAN Member States (AMS).



PHILIPPINES 20/20 VISION – GREENFIELD INDUSTRIES

The new Greenfield manufacturing industries that already have its presence in the

Philippines are the best entries in the diversification and development effort to add more

high-value added products for an expanded export market.

The development of new high-technology industries in the plastic manufacturing sector

with specific promotion in the areas of composite carbon fibre (CCF) and carbon fibre

reinforce plastic (CFRP) and engineering plastics (HPP - high-performance plastic) are

the three (3) key high-technology products with most promising market that is

expected to be sustained in the near future. These products are use and in high demand

from the aerospace and defense industries in the first world countries. An increasing use

of CFRP and HPP in the automotive and wind energy is another market opportunities.

The global engineering plastics market is another expanding opportunity estimated to

reach US$79 Billion in the year 2018, according to the report on the sector conducted

by MarketsandMarkets. Engineering plastics exhibit high dimensional stability, good

heat and chemical resistance and high strength. In general, the use of engineering

plastics helps in the development of durable, reliable and more efficient products than

their predecessors (metals). Major end-user industries where engineering plastics are

used to replace metal are the automotive and transportation sector. Other major end-

user industries are consumer products and appliances, electrical and electronics,

industrial and machinery, medical, construction and others.

The success in combining plastics with metal is a new innovation in technology that

offers significant weight reduction while retaining the stability properties of metal.

In the automotive and transportation sector, future trends are replacing metals in

vehicles with various types of engineering plastics which are more lightweight, fuel

efficient, sustainable materials (recyclable) and can be use in advanced vehicle designs.



PHILIPPINES 20/VISION – FORWARD TO THE FUTURE

The new Philippine manufacturing roadmap also showed an upsurge demand for more

development of industrial eco-zones which operates as an independent customs territory

that mostly caters to manufacturing plants geared on export market opportunities abroad.

This initiative is directly in tandem in the development of the Philippines automotive

industry’s new manufacturing roadmap aim at increasing local parts content suppliers

and promoting new car sub-sector in the areas of research and design (R&D).

Continued optimism in the manufacturing sector also resulted into more foreign direct

investments with majority coming from major trading partners such as U.S.A., France,

Japan, South Korea, Singapore, Britain, Germany, Netherland & Taiwan which already

shifted their mother production facilities and regional manufacturing plants to the country.

Based on both National Economic and Development Authority (NEDA) and Philippine

Statistics Authority (PSA) reports, the final tally for the total export revenue performance

registered over a seven (7) years annual basis starting January to December trade

statistics from the year 2010 (Actual) up to 2016 (Forecast) are illustrated below;

(Actual) 51.498

To create more market opportunities, our country – The PHILIPPINES - needs to further

ready to deliver more tangible outputs that are both efficient and sustainable.
