Unemployment rate drops to 5.5% this year
Preliminary data released by the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) showed that the country's unemployment rate this year stood at 5.5% from last year's 6.3%. The data showed that the number of jobless individuals slightly declined to 2.4 million from 2.6 million. However, the same report also noted that the underemployment rate, or those employed but who wanted more hours of work to meet their needs, steadied at 18.3% to 7.5 million. The preliminary data showed that the country's annual employment rate for this year is at 94.5%, equivalent to some 40.8 million jobs. Last year, the employment rate was 93.7%, equivalent to 38.7 million jobs. The Organization of Economic Cooperation and Development earlier said job generation should go beyond business process outsourcing.

John 3:16-18 ESV
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son (Jesus Christ), that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.
