MANILA Cheap Nike Air Max 90 Womens , Dec. 9 (Xinhua) -- The lack of jobs and corruption are major factors behind the slow decline in Philippine poverty rate, analysts said Monday.
University of Asia and the Pacific (UAP) economist Cid Terosa said the slow increase in the number of jobs is a key reason behind the slow pace of poverty reduction in the country.
"Poverty reduction has been slow because growth in the number of jobs has been slow and less inclusive," Terosa said.
University of the Philippines economist Solita Monsod said corruption is also making it difficult for the government to significantly reduce poverty.
"A higher economic growth rate will not translate into less number of poor people nationwide if inefficiencies in the government such as the pork barrel issue would persist," Monsod said.
The National Statistical Coordination Board (NSCB) released on Monday its latest report which showed a slight improvement in the country's poverty incidence last year.
In 2012, NSCB said poverty incidence in the Philippines eased to 25.2 percent of the population from 26.3 percent in 2009.
Among Filipino families, poverty incidence also declined to 19. 7 percent last year from 20.5 percent in 2009.
But NSCB Secretary-General Jose Ramon G. Albert said the improvements are not "statistically significant."
Even Socioeconomic Planning Secretary Arsenio Balisacan observed that the decline in poverty has been "slow."
Despite this Cheap Nike Air Max Womens , however, Balisacan said the government is not giving up its commitment to the United Nations under the Millennium Development Goals (MDG) to reduce poverty incidence to 17.2 percent by 2015.
Former Budget Secretary and University of the Philippines economist Benjamin Diokno said, however, that halving poverty incidence by 2015 may no longer be feasible.
"The goal of cutting poverty incidence by half by 2015 is virtually beyond reach. For one, growth has been uneven. There is a big disparity between the share of the richest 10 percent of the population and the poorest 10 percent," Diokno said.
What would make it more difficult for the government to hit its MDG target is the spate of natural disasters that struck the country. The NSCB said the Philippines was hit by seven major natural disasters between 2009 and 2012.
"The earthquake and typhoon Haiyan (alone) could cause 1.5 million Filipinos to fall into poverty this year Cheap Air Max TN Womens ," an official of the National Economic and Development Authority said.
While higher economic growth could boost confidence in the country, Terosa said government must work double time to increase jobs.
"Also, public provisioning of goods and services has to be efficiently targeted," he said.
To move out of poverty, data from the NSCB showed a poor family with five members needed a monthly additional income of 2,067 pesos (47 U.S. dollars) in 2012.
NSCB data showed that a Filipino family needed 5 Cheap Air Max 95 Womens ,513 pesos (125. 55 U.S. dollars) a month to meet its basic food needs and 7,890 pesos (179.68 U.S. dollars) monthly to keep from falling into poverty.

China's anti-graft campaign continues to be intense, with 163,000 people punished for violating Party and political discipline in the first half of 2016, even as those under inspection come up with creative ways to avoid detection.
Those who forge, destroy or hide evidence; stop others providing evidence; and act against inspectors may be warned and even expelled from the Party Cheap Air Max 90 Womens , according to article 57 of the Communist Party of China Disciplinary Regulations.
Concealing corruption
Common ways to interfere with inspections include giving officials a "heads-up," warning them watch their language and work during the inspection period.
For example, one State-owned enterprise warned staff at an internal meeting not to play golf during the investigation period, according to the website of the Communist Party of China Central Commission for Discipline Inspection (CCDI).
In addition, during inspections some government and Party bodies arrange for "troublemakers," or those who often complain or make suggestions Cheap Air Max Womens , to take vacations, or business trips abroad and even transfer them to other organs, Zhuang Deshui, a deputy director of Peking University's anti-corruption research center, told the Global Times on Tuesday.
The CCDI added that some of the inspected also intentionally provide poor working and living conditions for inspectors during their stay, such as feeding them horrible meals Cheap Nike Air Max TN , suddenly painting their walls or using chainsaws to make noise, hoping to make the inspectors leave early.
Some inspection teams choose to live in hotels to avoid such interference, Gan Chaoying, a law professor with Peking University, told the Global Times on Tuesday.
In October 2014, the Party chief of a county in North China's Shanxi Province ordered his subordinates to make sure that surveillance cameras were installed near tip-off boxes so as to identify whistle blowers Cheap Nike Air Max 95 , the CCDI said.
The local public security bureau also sent personnel to patrol a hotel in which another tip-off box was set up.
The interference also includes threats. Qi Peiwen, a former inspection team leader, said that he received a letter saying "There's nothing you can do and just take it easy, or you will end up in bad situation," The Beijing Times reported.
In April 2014, over 100 government officials in Zhengzhou Cheap Nike Air Max 90 , capital of Central China's Henan Province surrounded a hotel where a central inspection team were staying to "stop those who 'abnormally' tried to enter the hotel so as to 'protect the inspectors.'"
Officials may also act in an over-the-top way. Feng Limei, former head of the political advisory body of Maoming in .
