00:53 I'm afraid that I will not be able to pay. I'm worried about the people who are saying that this is my case.
01:02 They also need to borrow so that they can pay the expenses.

01:22 If productivity decreases, the output will increase, the production cost will decrease, and the price of goods will decrease.
01:27 If this can be achieved, it's possible that it can help reduce the debt of the poor Filipinos.
01:34 The policies are there, the laws are there. Often the challenge is making sure that this all cascades down.
01:39 You can only create the enabling environment from the government side. The actual catalyst for all of this will have to come from the private actors.

01:50 The income should be increased or higher income should be created, whether locally or abroad.
01:58 And to avoid the debt, an expert advised...
