EMIL JURADO: The NSO has said that unemployment worsened to 7.5% in April. This translates to 3.09M Filipinos unemployed. The underemployed now number 7.25M Filipinos.

First came the decrease of exports, then the increasing OUTFLOW of foreign direct investments because of a reported rebound of the US economy. The peso weakened, resulting in big losses in the stock market.
