THE Philippines’ unemployment rate slightly went up to 4.5 percent in January 2024 from 3.1 percent in December 2023, the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) said Friday, March 8, 2024.In a press conference, PSA director Undersecretary Dennis Mapa said that as of January 2024, 2.15 million or at least 45 out of 1,000 Filipinos who are members of the country’s labor force are jobless.The January 2024 unemployment rate is lower than the number recorded during the same month in 2023, but higher than that in October 2023, which was at 4.2 percent or 2.09 million individuals.Mapa said the increase can be attributed to the end of seasonal demand in the labor market, which historically goes up during the last quarter of each year due to increased economic activities brought about by the holidays.“Hindi ito unique sa ganung datos kasi October nakita natin last quarter diba marami tayong economic activities na nadagdag, particularly on retail trade so tumutulong ‘yung mga kasama sa bahay sa negosyo, stores, carenderia, may bazaar,” he said.(Such data is not unique because we saw in October last quarter that we had a lot of economic activities, particularly on retail trade, so the people at home helped in the business, stores, carenderia, bazaar.)The country’s labor force participation rate (LFPR), or the estimate of the economy’s active workforce, in January went down to 61.1 percent or 48.09 million from 63.9 percent or 49.89 million in October 2023.It includes individuals 15 years old and above.In December 2023, the LFPR was recorded at 66.6 percent or 52.13 million.Mapa said the decrease in the LFPR was brought about by the decrease of those who are self-employed and the unpaid family workers who are usually joining the labor forces considering the economic activities during the holiday season.“January, nawala na ang mga activities na ito…kaya nag off na sila sa labor force. Some goes back to household duties while the others go back to schooling,” he added.Mapa noted, though, that wage and salary workers went up by 640,000 quarter-on-quarter.The wage and salary workers continued to account for the largest share of employed persons, which is at a total of 45.94 million as of January 2024.The top five sectors with the largest increase on employed persons quarter-on-quarter were fishing and aquaculture; transportation and storage; professional, scientific and technical activities; arts, entertainment and recreation; and mining and quarrying.

He can describe me (as) anything, but sorry, I am still the mayor,” Rama said during Cebu City Hall’s online program “Ingna’ng Mayor” on Thursday, Feb. 22, 2024, referring to a statement made a day earlier by Metropolitan Cebu Water District (MCWD) chairman Jose Daluz III. Daluz who was ousted from his position in favor of retired major general Melquiades Feliciano, said the opposition must unite to remove Rama from his position as mayor.“The opposition against the dancing and singing mayor of ‘Singapoor-like’ Melbourne features must unite to remove toxic Mike,” said Daluz, who still sits as chairman of the MCWD board of directors.Daluz said there are other leaders who can better lead the city to “Save Cebu from toxic Mike.” In response, Rama said anyone who wishes to challenge him can describe him as anything, but his term will still be up to 2025.“I don’t have to add (to what my critics say). They are proud enough, they are honorable enough if they are still honorable,” Rama said.Regarding former mayor Tomas Osmeña’s reaction about a Rama-Garcia tandem in 2025, Rama said Osmeña is entitled to his own reaction. Rama said he is looking forward to who will be running against him in the next polls.“Once the filing of candidacy is done, then let’s talk about it. But as I always say, they are all worthy opponents, even if it is a dog,” Rama said.In October 2023, Osmeña said he would support anyone, even his own dog, if they were to run against Rama. Osmeña also told reporters that he would no longer run for mayor.However, on Feb. 19, 2024, SunStar Cebu reported that Osmeña had yet to clearly share his plans on whether he plans to run as mayor in 2025.When asked to comment about Rama’s plans for the 2025 elections, the former mayor simply said, “Rama is stupid.” “Fortunately for him, people are used to his stupidity,” Osmeña added.CoalitionsOsmeña and Rama were political allies until 2010 when Rama left the Osmeña-led Bando Osmeña Pundok Kauswagan (BOPK).Rama defeated Osmeña when they both ran for mayor in 2013. It was Osmeña’s first loss since he ran for the mayoral seat in 1988.Asked about politicians coming together to go against him, Rama said there is nothing new about it.He pointed out that the Rama political brand emanated from Don Vicente Rama who authored the bill for the cityhood of Cebu City which was approved into law in 1936.According to Rama, many political figures get jealous because it was his grandfather who made Cebu City a chartered city.In 2023, Daluz speculated that Rama’s motive for wanting him removed from MCWD could have stemmed from his resistance to Rama’s efforts to privatize the water district or from his recommendations regarding political succession within their party coalition, which was aimed at elevating younger members to higher positions. Daluz is president of the Panaghiusa Party, which formed a coalition with Rama’s Barug party and then Cebu City councilor, now Vice Mayor, Raymond Alvin Garcia’s Kusug party in the May 2022 elections.On Aug. 17, 2023, Daluz and MCWD board members Miguelito Pato and Jodelyn May Seno were removed from their positions as chairman and members of the board.The Cebu City Legal Office provided them with a copy of the notice regarding their removal and termination dated Aug. 1, 2023, and was duly received by the MCWD management, board of directors, and the Local Water Utilities Administration.On Oct. 31, 2023, Rama appointed Feliciano, Aristotle Batuhan, and Nelson Yuvallos to the board of directors to replace Daluz and board members Pato and Seno.

In a letter addressed to Daluz and Donoso, Salonga announced the partial intervention of LWUA, which he said was authorized by Resolution 35, s. 2023 duly approved by the LWUA Board of Trustees in accordance with Presidential Decree 198, as amended.

He can describe me (as) anything, but sorry, I am still the mayor,” Rama said during Cebu City Hall’s online program “Ingna’ng Mayor” on Thursday, Feb. 22, 2024, referring to a statement made a day earlier by Metropolitan Cebu Water District (MCWD) chairman Jose Daluz III. Daluz who was ousted from his position in favor of retired major general Melquiades Feliciano, said the opposition must unite to remove Rama from his position as mayor.“The opposition against the dancing and singing mayor of ‘Singapoor-like’ Melbourne features must unite to remove toxic Mike,” said Daluz, who still sits as chairman of the MCWD board of directors.Daluz said there are other leaders who can better lead the city to “Save Cebu from toxic Mike.” In response, Rama said anyone who wishes to challenge him can describe him as anything, but his term will still be up to 2025.“I don’t have to add (to what my critics say). They are proud enough, they are honorable enough if they are still honorable,” Rama said.Regarding former mayor Tomas Osmeña’s reaction about a Rama-Garcia tandem in 2025, Rama said Osmeña is entitled to his own reaction. Rama said he is looking forward to who will be running against him in the next polls.“Once the filing of candidacy is done, then let’s talk about it. But as I always say, they are all worthy opponents, even if it is a dog,” Rama said.In October 2023, Osmeña said he would support anyone, even his own dog, if they were to run against Rama. Osmeña also told reporters that he would no longer run for mayor.However, on Feb. 19, 2024, SunStar Cebu reported that Osmeña had yet to clearly share his plans on whether he plans to run as mayor in 2025.When asked to comment about Rama’s plans for the 2025 elections, the former mayor simply said, “Rama is stupid.” “Fortunately for him, people are used to his stupidity,” Osmeña added.CoalitionsOsmeña and Rama were political allies until 2010 when Rama left the Osmeña-led Bando Osmeña Pundok Kauswagan (BOPK).Rama defeated Osmeña when they both ran for mayor in 2013. It was Osmeña’s first loss since he ran for the mayoral seat in 1988.Asked about politicians coming together to go against him, Rama said there is nothing new about it.He pointed out that the Rama political brand emanated from Don Vicente Rama who authored the bill for the cityhood of Cebu City which was approved into law in 1936.According to Rama, many political figures get jealous because it was his grandfather who made Cebu City a chartered city.In 2023, Daluz speculated that Rama’s motive for wanting him removed from MCWD could have stemmed from his resistance to Rama’s efforts to privatize the water district or from his recommendations regarding political succession within their party coalition, which was aimed at elevating younger members to higher positions. Daluz is president of the Panaghiusa Party, which formed a coalition with Rama’s Barug party and then Cebu City councilor, now Vice Mayor, Raymond Alvin Garcia’s Kusug party in the May 2022 elections.On Aug. 17, 2023, Daluz and MCWD board members Miguelito Pato and Jodelyn May Seno were removed from their positions as chairman and members of the board.The Cebu City Legal Office provided them with a copy of the notice regarding their removal and termination dated Aug. 1, 2023, and was duly received by the MCWD management, board of directors, and the Local Water Utilities Administration.On Oct. 31, 2023, Rama appointed Feliciano, Aristotle Batuhan, and Nelson Yuvallos to the board of directors to replace Daluz and board members Pato and Seno.
