Economy ::Philippines
Economy - overview:
Economic growth has averaged 5% since President MACAPAGAL-ARROYO
took office in 2001. MACAPAGAL-ARROYO averted a fiscal crisis by
pushing for new revenue measures and, until recently, tightening
expenditures. Declining fiscal deficits, tapering debt and debt
service ratios, and increased spending on infrastructure and social
services bolstered optimism over Philippine economic prospects.
Although the general macroeconomic outlook improved significantly in
recent years, the economy still faces several long term challenges.
The Philippines must maintain the reform momentum in order to catch
up with regional competitors, improve employment opportunities, and
alleviate poverty. The Philippines will need still higher, sustained
growth to make progress in alleviating poverty, given its high
population growth and unequal distribution of income. The Philippine
economy grew at its fastest pace in three decades in 2007 with real
GDP growth exceeding 7%, but growth slowed to 3.8% in 2008 as a
result of the world financial crisis. High government spending, a
relatively small trade sector, a resilient service sector, and large
remittances from the four- to five-million Filipinos who work abroad
have helped cushion the economy from the current financial crisis.

Transnational Issues ::Philippines
Disputes - international:
Philippines claims sovereignty over certain of the Spratly Islands,
known locally as the Kalayaan (Freedom) Islands, also claimed by
China, Malaysia, Taiwan, and Vietnam; the 2002 "Declaration on the
Conduct of Parties in the South China Sea," has eased tensions in
the Spratly Islands but falls short of a legally binding "code of
conduct" desired by several of the disputants; in March 2005, the
national oil companies of China, the Philippines, and Vietnam signed
a joint accord to conduct marine seismic activities in the Spratly
Islands; Philippines retains a dormant claim to Malaysia's Sabah
State in northern Borneo based on the Sultanate of Sulu's granting
the Philippines Government power of attorney to pursue a sovereignty
claim on his behalf; maritime delimitation negotiations continue
with Palau
Refugees and internally displaced persons:
IDPs: 300,000 (fighting between government troops and MILF and Abu
Sayyaf groups) (2007)
Illicit drugs:
domestic methamphetamine production has been a growing problem in

where Manila's control is limited

@Pitcairn Islands (Australia-Oceania)
Introduction ::Pitcairn Islands
Background:
Pitcairn Island was discovered in 1767 by the British and settled in
1790 by the Bounty mutineers and their Tahitian companions. Pitcairn
was the first Pacific island to become a British colony (in 1838)
and today remains the last vestige of that empire in the South
Pacific. Outmigration, primarily to New Zealand, has thinned the
population from a peak of 233 in 1937 to less than 50 today.

Pitcairn is inhabited but it has no port or natural harbor; supplies

offshore
