It is becoming a widely held mainstream belief that the smart money is invested in Asia. This idea has been perpetuated recently in the major publications, such as the Wall Street Journal. This newspaper has even gone as far as to give Asia its own separate paper. Now I must remind the reader that I am only adding my own observations to what has already been stated by a few enlightened individuals before, so it is not to be taken as investment advice, and are only opinions of the webmaster only. Anyone who has traveled to the Philippines in the past few years on separate trips can easily agree with me when I say that the change in the landscape is astounding. Investment money from foreigners is silently flooding into the country in places such as Manila and Cebu. As I write this in 2002, there are literally dozens of beautiful new high-rises under construction in Manila. I personally invest in two separate high rise condominium buildings. While everyone I know has lost about 50% of their net worth in the stock market in the past 2 years, I have made about 20% in my rate of return in the same amount of time by staying clear of the U.S. stock market. In addition to real estate, there are also many solid arguments for business investments. First, the literacy rate of the Philippines is about 99% compared to the U.S. rate of about 55%. You can walk into a shanty-town area, and every single house will have a wall of respectable diplomas on display. These people have nothing but their pride. But that is all they need to set the stage for the boom they will see ahead. The second point is that they all can read and write English, the international language of business. This makes it very easy for a foreigner to communicate with his or her staff. The third point is the cost of living and the subsequently lower need for wages by the employer. If you are a businessman who can get a highly educated staff member that requests 10% of what your domestic staff request, what choice are you going to make? If you don't know the answer to this question, you have never owned your own business. So now it is up to you to think about how you will claim your share of the coming wealth to the Philippines. My prediction is that within 15 years, Manila will join the ranks of Singapore and Hong Kong as one of the most wealthy per capita areas of the world. The boat is still fueling....you have not missed it. Take your time and learn as much as you can before you jump into something. But don't wait too long and allow yourself to get sleepy......if you fall asleep at the dock, the boat can still leave without you..... We will post more good stuff as we get it....
