The RH Bill: Economic growth alone will not solve overpopulation

The RH Bill: Economic growth alone will not solve overpopulation

I cannot say in absolute terms that I am a strong advocate of the proposed Reproductive Health bill (RH Bill). In a perfect world, we wouldn’t need to introduce such legislation. But we do not live in a perfect world and if one’s intention is to seek flaws in the proposed bill, one will surely…

Posted on January 23, 2011August 13, 2022 By benign0 76 Comments on Being cluey about foreign capital

One of the key aspects of the Constitutional Reform agenda revolves around the proposal to open the Philippines to full foreign ownership of business assets and private property.
