The Joint Foreign Chambers will host the Arangkada Workshop Turning the Philippines into a Tiger Economy on December 6 in Makati City.

Nearly 300 participants, about one-third from various public sector offices, and two-thirds from the local and foreign investment community, business associations, and media are expected.
President Aquino has been invited as a keynote speaker to address the administration’s reforms in building the Philippines as the region’s newest “tiger” economy.
Arangkada Philippines 2010: A Business Perspective contains 471 recommendations from Filipino and foreign investors for building a more competitive economy leading to high growth and job creation. It documents a path for the Philippines to become a middle-income economy with robust investment levels, high levels of job creation, modern infrastructure, and rising government revenues to pay for enhanced social services.
