The reason why there's a lot of homeless in the Philippines is the country's stereotypes about Manila. Actually, these homeless people are not actually homeless people. They are from the other part of the Philippines. They are the people who wanted to be successful. They think that Manila is the greatest opportunity for them. Unfortunately, they found bad luck. Companies in Manila are choosy, they want a college graduate employee or at least has some college degree.
The Philippines is an archipelago country, so whenever we moved to another place, from one island to another island, we use airplanes. By applying for a job in different companies, they expense transportation, food, renting an apartment, etc. when they have no more money but still can't find a job. That would be the time that they will sleep in the street. Fortunately, the number of homeless people is decreasing. The Philippines passed a law for them. The government gives money for them to go back to their hometown and start a business there.
The Philippines economy is getting better. The Philippines is called Asia's Rising star because it is the fastest-growing economy in Asia. For now, the Philippines is rank 38th in terms of GDP, but United Nations predicted that in 2050, the Philippines would be rank 16 richest country in the world. Government estimate that in 2030, there no more ex-pat Filipino worker.
