I.INTRODUCTION
Philippines are having a lot issue and challenges like poverty, poor education system, drugs,
heavy traffic and high crime. People in the Philippines are suffering so many crimes, and that is
why government of the Philippines are having hard time to resolve it.
II.BODY
This is the first major issue that the Philippine government should resolve but somehow it is
recently improving. The quality of Philippine education has declined few years ago due to poor
results from standard entrance tests conducted among elementary and secondary students, as well
as the tertiary levels. The results were way below the target mean score. High dropout rates, high
number of repeaters, low passing grades, lack of particular language skills, failure to adequately
respond and address the needs of people with special needs, overcrowded classrooms, and poor
teacher performances, have greatly affected the quality of education in the Philippines. The state
of being extremely poor. The state of being inferior in quality or insufficient in amount. Causes
of Poverty. Rapid Population Growth As the Philippines has financially limited resources and a
high poverty rate, the rapid increase in population has become a problem because there is already
insufficient resources to support the population, which leaves much fewer resources to improve
the economy. From 2003 to 2006, even though the Philippines experienced above-average
economic growth, the poverty incidence actually increased as a result of its population growth
rate. Drug syndicates have been producing methamphetamine in small-scale and kitchen-type
laboratories to avoid detection by the Philippine authorities since 2010. Usually, drug syndicates
rent warehouses for use as drug laboratories. These syndicates have moved towards renting
houses in private subdivisions, condominiums and apartments to be used as bases for their illegal
drug production. Private properties are becoming more favorable to drug syndicates as sites of
illegal drug production

III.CONCLUSION

Citezen in the Philipines are suffering to those many issue, having lack of somany things can be
serious problem. Poverty can cause a crime, because of being limited they'd push to make crime
to have a resources. The lack of education is a serious problem for the Filipino people, if the
Filipino people lack of education, they will suffer from poverty and we know that the education
are key to success Government of the Philippines are trying to solve those issue but some filipino
are not supporting the government to their projects to improve and to solve step by step the those
issue.
