[:1st Official Entry: Effects of Population Explosion in the Phillippines :]

Population explosion is considered as one of the indisputable alarming obstacles that stand on the path of the less developed countries. These countries produce great numbers in terms of human resources because the birth rate is much higher than in the rich countries, but the rate of employment and production in the poor
countries is very low. Definitely this is a very serious problem that the government should never take for granted.The Philippines belong to the group of these “less developed countries.” And as we all know, the growth of population in our country is unstoppable. In fact, the Philippine population is one of the fastest growing countries in the world. It is estimated that 3,000 Filipino babies are born every day, 100,000 every month, or one million a year to round.

There are many effects of population explosion in the Philippines. First,(1)Poverty; Filipinos more become poor and suffer hunger in their daily life. When a one Filipino family consist of 5-10 members, they can affect our population. Mostly, poor families have more members in their family. Their Major problem is their food t eat. Usually, the mother and father have no work or we call this unemployed. Population is the main source of their problem. Second and last (2)effect of population explosion is the Management of the Philippines. We all know, our new president Noynoy Aquino "P-NOY" will also be challenge in this problem. He will try to control the birth rate so that our population will be controlled in increasing the numbers. These ae the effects of population explosion for me.
