1 Spatial Disparities and Development Policy in the Philippines Arsenio M. Balisacan University of the Philipppines Diliman & SEARCA World Development Report 2009 (Reshaping Economic Geography) Launch Asian Institute of Management, Makati City 12 January 2009
2 Based on: Balisacan, A.M., H. Hill, and S.F.A. Piza. Spatial Disparities and Development Policy in the Philippines. In Reshaping Economic Geography in East Asia, ed. Y. Huang and A.M. Bocchi. Washington, D.C.: World Bank, 2009.
3 Stark features of Philippine development Anemic economic growth, barely exceeding population growth rate Disappointing performance in poverty reduction and human development Persistently high spatial disparities in living standards
4 Growth of the Philippine economy (1)
5 Growth of the Philippine economy (2) Average growth rate of real per capita GDP 10.0 % Growth has picked up, but the pace is still slower than those of the country s neighbors China Indonesia Malaysia Philip... Thailand Vietnam
6 Poverty reduction has been fast in East Asia, but not so in the Philippines % China Philippines Indonesia Malaysia Thailand Vietnam Notes: Estimates refer to the proportion of population with income per capita below US$1.25 a day (in PPP). Figures for Indonesia are approximation based on urban/rural estimates. Sources: PovcalNet World Bank; Chen and Ravallion (2008) for China estimates; Badan Pusat Statistik for urban and rural population ratios.
7 Why the poor performance High & rising geographic concentration of economic production? Too much focus on urban rather than rural development? Low supply of good governance?
8 Regional distribution of economic production NCR plus two adjoining regions account for onehalf of GDP. Luzon s economy contributes twothirds to national income. BUT no major changes in economic geography during the past two decades. Note: Regional GDP shares for 1988 and 2007 are averages for and , respectively. Regions are defined consistently across years. Provincial income shares from household surveys are used.
9 International experience shows a link between urbanization, on the one hand, and per capita income and poverty, on the other. Also true in the Philippines. Per capita income tends to rise with urbanization. Poverty tends to fall with urbanization. Note: Unit observations are provinces based on Family Income and Expenditure Survey, National Statistics Office.
10 Urban-rural income gaps & urbanization Cross-country evidence shows declines of urban-rural income gaps as density increases. Persistent income gaps in the Philippines Note: Unit observations are provinces based on Family Income and Expenditure Survey, National Statistics Office.
11 Geographic differences in poverty rates diverging, not converging as seen in the country s neighbors (1) Regional differences in poverty incidence Source: Family Income and Expenditure Survey, National Statistics Office; Philippine Human Development Report, Human Development Network.
12 Also broadly the case in provincial HDI: diversity is the rule
13 Unlocking the barriers to high growth and convergence of living standards Develop market-friendly institutions to exploit the benefits of agglomeration & specialization Enforce property rights, particularly on land Safeguard land tenure Ease land use conversion to reflect maket needs Invest in infrastructure to promote connectivity, especially between leading & lagging areas Expand ACCESS to basic and social services, particularly education & health Keep sound macroeconomic policies Reduce market distortions Improve business climate
14 The Big Challenge Allowing even encouraging unbalanced economic growth, while ensuring inclusive development in a regime of weak governance Upgrading quality of institutions
15 Salamat!
