The peso exchange rate : why are we so poor?

For the first time, a book comes out to explain in commonsense terms how Filipinos have become so poor and to do it in a Big Picture. How could Thailand and Taiwan overtake the Philippines when they had no more resources than the Philippines and their people no more talented than Filipinos? Is the phenomenon of the OFW (Overseas Foreign Worker) good for the economy? The book identifies problems in the economy and searches for their causes from facts and figures base in Filipino history.
