The self-rated poverty incidence for September 2007 is 52%, 5% higher than June’s 47%. Perhaps in an effort to escape culpability, government readily attributes it to lack of awareness regarding state anti-poverty and hunger mitigation programs.

What’s disconcerting is that the actual rate could be much higher than that. At our present situation, it can easily be seen that a hundred Filipinos are poor as opposed to one well-to-do Filipino.

they’ll probably tweak what being “poor” means to decrease the amount — like what they did for “unemployment” 😦
