‘PH worsening unemployment debunks government’s plan to stop forced migration phenomenon’

Thus, said today by a Filipino migrants’ rights group in reaction to the latest survey group findings on the state of unemployment in the Philippines.

In a recent published report, the Social Weather Stations (SWS) survey conducted last August 2012 revealed that unemployment rate reached to 29.4 percent in the 3^rd quarter of this year compared from the 26.6 percent last May 2012.

As to gender, the SWS survey showed joblessness increased among women from 36.4 percent in May to 42.5 percent this August and was slightly up among men at 19.3 percent from 18.9 percent in May.

“The recent SWS survey serves a ‘crystal clear’ mirror on the state of unemployment in the Philippines. Notably, it’s not getting better under the Aquino administration,” said John Leonard Monterona, Migrante-Middle East regional coordinator.

He said that the plan of the PH government under the Aquino administration to stop peddling Filipino workers abroad in 5-year time from now is ‘only a wishful thinking in the face of worsening unemployment in the country’.

“The SWS survey on unemployment is a slap on the face of PNoy and its labor honchos who stated that it will stop sending Filipino workers abroad. The reality is, it will continue to do so and even intensify its labor export program by exploring labor markets abroad, no difference from the previous administrations,” Monterona averred.

He noted that there are, on the average, 4,200 Filipinos leaving the country daily for work or looking for jobs abroad compared to the 3,200 two years ago.

“With the worsening unemployment problem, the number of Filipinos forced to leave the country for overseas job will increase to around three to 5 percent from the current base figure of 4,200 daily in two to 3 year time,” Monterona estimated.

Monterona scored the PH labor dept. saying, “The DoLE would make us believe that the unemployment problem is due to ‘job mismatch’. The fact is the Aquino administration performs poorly in generating local jobs with decent pay and benefits primarily due to anti-labor policies such as labor-contracting only, among others.”
