Philippines population to hit 107 million in 2018


MANILA, Philippines — From 105.53 million last year, the country’s population will rise to 107.19 million by the end of 2018, the Commission on Population (PopCom) said yesterday.

Citing projections by the Philippine Statistics Authority based on the latest census in 2015, PopCom executive director Juan Antonio Perez III said the population was estimated to grow to 107,190,081 by Dec. 31 from 105,377,586 in 2017.

Perez said the increase would be boosted by some 1.8 million babies expected to be born this year, representing a growth rate of 1.69 percent.

“That means we will be adding 4,953 Filipinos per day, or 206 every hour in 2018,” he told The STAR.

Anak pa more sa Davao para matulad sa Metro Manila.
At para ma-occupy pati ng mga tao ang forest watersheds,
at maging extinct ang Philippine Eagle.

Tao lang ang may karapatan mag-occupy sa planet Earth,
bawal ang ibang species.

Yang ibang species na yan, ginawa lang sila ng Dyos para kainin natin.
Mga pagkain lang sila (pwede rin gawin damit, bag, belt at sapatos).

Kaya anak pa more!

If the chart data materializes , BAngladesh is the one that should be congratulated it seems they're able to manage their pop. to replacement level. In the meantime looks like Phils wants to take their place. Nightmare.
^^ Rizal, Laguna, Batangas, Quezon.
Go forth and multiply!

Hanggang 1980s ay bumababa pa mula sa bundok
papunta sa Laguna de Bay ang mga usa (Philippine Deer).

Ito ay sa kabila ng coastal highway
na nag-hiwalay sa bundok at lawa noong 1960s
(i.e. "Cross at your own risk" ang motto ng mga usa,
parang scene sa Hollywood movies).

Pero noong 1990s, bigla na lang silang nawala.
Ano ang nabago? Umakyat na hanggang sa bundok ang mga residential developments
dahil puno na ang Laguna de Bay coast.

Inagawan natin sila ng tahanan.


^^ Very young Philippine Deer, as evidenced by the undeveloped horns. (Source).

Ian Fairweather (1891-1974) is considered one of the greatest painters in Australia of all time. (Wiki)



Painted in 1957 while Ian Fairweather was living in Queensland,
"Anak Bayan" recalls the artist’s time in Manila,
where he lived for a period during the 1930s.
The painting has been viewed as a celebration of birth
('anak bayan' means 'son of the country' in the Tagalog language),
yet public birth celebrations are not customary in the Philippines.

Source: Art Gallery of New South Wales (link)
^^ Naku, hindi practical dito ang "public birth celebration".
Pag ginaya natin ang tradisyon ng Australia,
segurado, araw-araw may selebrasyon sa kalye nyo.

O baka naman social criticism lang ito ni Fairweather
ayon sa nakita nyang araw-araw na childbirth dito sa Maynila.

Not only that, life is already cheap in the PHils. Life expectancy is very short ,We should be working on improving the quality of life of the people we currently have not adding millions to it. Life will just continue to get cheaper and you become just a dispensable statistic the bigger the pop. gets.

Where will the additional Filipinos be?
Why that's easy. Just cram them all into Boracay and let the li'l sh!tty island (no pun intended) sink like Atlantis. :lol::lol::lol:


Oh yeah, Boracay is a poster island example of why overpopulation equals environmental destruction.

Here's an expanded chart I made for the Top 20 most populous countries in 2100:


Reference:
https://esa.un.org/unpd/wpp/Download/Standard/Population/



Note that the chart above is based on UN's "medium variant" model. The "high variant" model predicts a population of 261 million for the Philippines in 2100. :uh:

India road to upper middle economy will be delayed


India is growing at 7.2 per cent a year, making it the fastest-growing major economy in the world.

But in reality the country is not growing quickly enough to provide enough new jobs for its rapidly expanding population.
And according to a recent World Bank calculation it also lags the 8 per cent growth it needs to hit every year for the next 30 if it wants to become an upper-middle income country.

India needs 10% growth yearly to make up for their fast expanding population..

What use of having pop control programs when Duterte just allowed 3 million Chinese immigrants in?
^^

Iba ang may pakinabang sa walang may pakinabang .. chinese has the money
The Only difference ..they do not eat "pagpag" .. unlike those of a small poor family of 6-8 children

I on the other hand welcome those chinese citizens.. para mahaluan naman tayo ng progressive genes...
