If we compare the GDP per Capita for the last 20 years between Philippines and other ASEAN countries, Philippines remains in the lowest on GDP per Capita. This paper is trying to find out the possible reasons for the low growth rate of the GDP per Capita in the Philippines. 53 years data from the World Bank are used explore the relationships between the GDP per Capita and eight economic indicators to run three time series models and one to one regression. Three indicators, namely, consumer price index, gross capital formation as a percentage of GDP and population are remarked with possible contribution to the low growth rate of the GDP per capita of the Philippines.

Two species of the genus Burmoniscus Collinge, 1914 (Philosciidae), B. philippinensis and B palawanensis from Palawan Island, the Philippines are described as new. In the family Philosciidae, only a single species, Pseudo-typhloscia alba (Dollfus, 1898), has been recorded from the Philippines. Two species of the genus Burmoniscus Collinge, 1914 (Philosciidae), B. philippinensis and B. palawanensis from Palawan Island, the Philippines are described as new. B. philippinensis is distinguished from its congeners by the shape of telson with straight sides and slightly protruding distal part with acute apex, while B. palawanensis by its peculiar shape of male pleopod 1 endopod.

This monographic study presents morphological descriptions of eight species of Padina collected from the Visayas and Mindanao regions of southern Philippines, including distributions of each species and a taxonomic key for all the species examined. Of these species, three are new records for the Philippines, namely: P. fernandeziana Skottsberg and Levring, P. jonesii Tsuda and P. moffittiana Abbott and Huisman. One species, P. antillarum (Kützing) Piccone, represents a new nomenclatural record, which is applied to a Philippine species for the first time. Four species previously reported in the Philippines are reconfirmed and described P. australis Hauck, P. minor Yamada, P. boryana Thivy and P. sanctae-crucis Borgesen. All eight species studied have distromatic thalli, except for P. antillarum which is tetrastromatic. Three of these have indusiate sporangia, namely: P. sanctae-crucis, P. moffittianaand P. fernandeziana.

The main functions of university are research, teaching and social service. University would be developed only when all three functions are organically interacted. In this view, Korean universities have relatively weak in their social service function. On the other hand, Philippines universities are more developed than Korean universities. Taking the university to the people, rather than bringing the people to the university, is the goal of extension education in the Philippines university. The techniques of extension have bees consultation, demonstration, short courses, and correspondence of distance education. Especially in the Philippines, some agricultural universities have their own extension services besides those sponsored by the government. Since it is thought to be closest to the ideal system for bringing about agricultural development, and even though Philippines system has brought about many outstanding results, it would be very difficult to follow this pattern in Korea. Before we try to follow Philippines experience, we can not avoid the criticism on our preset extension education programs that they are usually poor organized, money oriented and routinizied. In order to improve the university`s extension function, universities should provide and develop various programs to meet the community`s educational demands positively and should, in the long run, open its facilities to the community to become a center of lifelong education.

Central Bank authorities should carefully manage inflation rate uncertainties to achieve economic growth and development not only in the short-run but also in the long-run. Since inflation is a key macroeconomic variable, an increased understanding about its behavior is undoubtedly important. Thus, paper employs unit root with breakpoints to examine the mean reverting behavior of inflation rate in the Philippines using monthly data from 2002 to 2020. Empirically, the unit root breakpoint innovational and additive outlier tests favor the stationarity or mean reverting behavior of inflation in the Philippines. Also, results of standard unit root tests, ADF, PP, GLS-Dickey-Fuller, KPSS and NP, provide strong evidence of mean reverting processes. The mean reverting behavior of inflation rate reveals that the monetary policy using inflation targeting framework has succeeded in reducing chronic inflation persistence in the Philippines. Thus, this research supports inflation targeting policy that aims to maintain general price level stability for the Philippine economy's long-term growth and development prospects. The findings of this research remain important for the central bankers for not only providing them better understanding about the behavior of inflation rate, but also helping them formulate and implement policy reforms related to money, credit and banking.

The study specifically aimed to identify factors affecting business longevity. It focused on knowing how embroidery enterprises managed to persist in the industry for many years despite the competitive business environment. After discovering the significant relationships of such factors to longevity, problems experienced by the enterprise cluster were ascertained in order to come up with recommendations that can be proposed to the enterprise owners. Embroidery entrepreneurs have been experiencing a continuous decline in sales due to lack of innovation and intense competition. In the evaluation of their personal entrepreneurial competencies, they scored low on risk-taking, persuasion and networking, and opportunity seeking; thus, implying that these are their weaknesses. On the other hand, the statistical results of this study say that longevity is a function of the entrepreneur's competencies (i.e., persistence, commitment to work contract, demand for quality and efficiency, information seeking, and systematic planning or monitoring), the generation currently managing the business, competition, and the customer's preferences. These results suggest that these independent variables are significant and are deemed critical to business longevity. Thus, entrepreneurs have to find ways on how to use these competencies as an advantage in reinventing their businesses and in reviving their industry.

Least square means for egg weight (EW), average shell thickness (ST), shape index (SI), shell surface area (SA) and shell breaking strength (BS) were determined in the Philippine native (PN) and F2 upgrades with New Hampshire (NH-N) and White Leghorn (WL-N) blood, respectively. Eggs of PN were smaller in size but had higher SI while their egg shells were thinner and weaker than those of the two upgrades. Highest EW, SA and BS means were observed in WL-N. Significant (p<0.01) positive correlations of EW and SI with SA and BS were noted.

목적: 한국인과 필리핀인을 대상으로 비정시안의 굴절이상 상태를 알아보고자 하였다. 방법: 안경원을 방문하여 굴절검사를 받은 한국인 7,695명(15,390안)과 필리핀인 2,256명(4,512안)을 대상으로 굴절이상안의 분포, 난시안의 종류와 난시량의 크기, 근용안경가입도와 동공중심간거리 등을 두 나라 간 비교 분석하였다. 결과: 비정시안의 분포는 한국인은 근시 93.69%, 원시 6.31%, 필리핀인은 근시 73.43%, 원시 26.57%로, 근시안의 등가구면굴절력은 한국인 -Q3.352 D 필리핀인 -Q2.213 D로 한국인이 -Q1.139 D 크게 조사되었다. 원시안의 등가구면굴절력은 한국인 1.147D, 필리핀인 1.251 D로 필리핀인이 0.104 D 큰 것으로 조사되었다. 한국인의 비정시안의 분포는 중도근시 49.86%, 경도근시 32.28%, 고도근시 11.55%, 경도원시 5.54%, 중도원시 0.75% 이었고, 필리핀인은 경도근시 44.53%, 중도근시 25.11%, 고도근시3.79, 중도원시 23.03% 경도원시 3.51%로 조사되었다. 난시량은 한국인이 필리핀인 보다 0.175D 많았으며, 난시의 종류는 한국인은 직난시, 도난시, 사난시, 필리핀인은 직난시, 사난시, 도난시 순으로 많았고, 사난시 비율이 한국인보다 필리핀인이 높았다. 근용안경가입도 크기는 모든 연령에서 평균 0.296 D 정도 필리핀인이 높았으며, 동공중심간거리는 한국인이 필리핀인보다 남성 0.97 mm, 여성 0.63 mm 크게 조사되었다. 결론:한국인과 필리핀인의 굴절이상 분포는 근시안이 많았고 필리핀인은 한국인에 비해 원시안의 비율이 많았다. 한국인은 도난시 비율이, 필리핀인은 사난시 비율이 상대적으로 높았다. 근용가입도는 필리핀인이 한국인보다 높았으며, 동공중심간거리는 신체적 특성상 한국인이 필리핀인보다 컸다. 이는 지리적 환경이 눈의 굴절상태에 영향을 미친 것으로 사료된다.
