TOWARD THE REGIONAL DISPERSAL OF INDUSTRIES IN THE PHILIPPINES by RAMON
نویسنده
چکیده
This study aims to demonstrate how the interaction between the planning and political processes, given their different perceptions of spatial equity and efficiency objectives, influences the formulation and implementation of regional policies in the Philippines. It examines a number of past and current policies, with particular emphasis on those related to the regional dispersal of industries, and evaluates the outcome or identifies the possible consequences resulting from the frequent conflicts between these two processes. In addition, the complementarity of these various sectoral policies is analyzed in order to design an overall strategy for spatial equity. Finally the study presents some policy recommendations intended to strenghten the institutional machinery for regional development planning and to reduce the tensions between the planning and political
