cancer on development (World

Corruption [is] a moral issue, that the fabric

of society can be eroded. Young people now
have as their role models [the leaders] who
have made money as a result of corruption.
Corruption destroys the future of society,
and we must not ignore these effects. If we
take moral, ethics out of our work, we are
no better than animals. General Olusegun

Poverty and Mendicancy

40% population below poverty line

One of every four Filipino families are hungry. While the percentage has decreased dramatically since the 1980s and 1990s, the volumes have not. Thats according to the Washington-based International
Food Policy Research Institute. With a present population of nearly 100 million, Filipinos who are starving number about 25 million.

One-tenth of the population, nearly 10 million Filipinos, are working overseas. Most are in America, the Middle East, and nearby Hong Kong, Macau, and Singapore. A good number are in jobs beneath their
education and training. Statistics show that one of every five OFW college kids drop out because of non-parental guidance or broken homes.
