Reasons Statistics around

the world cannot be relied
Global estimates of the total number of homeless
people vary greatly on the group doing the
counting
UN can only guess the global population using
statistics given to them by unreliable sources
Thousands of bush tribes living in the most
remote parts of the globe are never anticipated
Mankind has always underestimated many things
in its search for statistics
Many countries had given false number of their
true statistical population.

Developing Country like
Philippines

There will be an increase in working

age population and give the country
an opportunity to develop its human
capital
People in rural areas tend to move to
urban where there are job
oppurtunities
