		<description>I agree, there is a lot of potential, but many changes would need to be made for money to flow into PI for improvements.

The corrupt government officials taking %40+ percent of all money is bad because it takes twice as much money to get anything done.

Also, foreign investors can&#039;t own land; can&#039;t even own majority of a business. No investors want to invest somewhere they can&#039;t maintain controlling interest in their investments.

When I move there, I&#039;m going to need to put everything in my mother&#039;s name (she&#039;s dual citizen) because inheriting is the only way a US citizen can own land or a business.

Bottom line: while there are great natural resources, great scenery, and great people, until the government straightens things out and starts encouraging people to invest in the country, it will continue to struggle.</description>

		<description>I agree with you but it needs more power for anyone to invest in our country with rampant graft and corruption to establish a business there,  that is why everyone are leaving Philippines for Canada and other countries.

		<description>Yup, it&#039;ll be an investor&#039;s loss if they don&#039;t do business in the Philippines. IMHO, offline and online businesses will be booming in the next 5 - 10 years here, I just hope that all laws are in par with the coming of online businesses. e-commerce is going to take a huge part in the country&#039;s progress......
can I link this article to my blog? I think trackback is not working :(</description>
