Think It Over:

– Answer the following questions briefly:

1. Do you think that the Philippines is harmed as other countries transfer their activities to
us through outsourcing?

Answer:

1. I think it is no, the Philippines is not harmed. In fact, the country benefits from it. One of
the best example of the transferred activities of other countries in the Philippines is the
Call Center. Call center is the most popular outsourcing, American companies who
outsource their customer service to a third party call center company here in the
Philippines (Teletech, Tele performance, etc.). All over the Philippines, you can see big
call centers with attractive compensation rate and good looking offices. Call center is big
evidence of the very large transferred activities through outsourcing of the other country
and it growing steadily over the years. Outsourcing is really give opportunities, jobs to
the Filipinos that will help to maintains economic growth of the country and it helps
increase efficiency.

2. International organization help the country through serving many diverse functions,
including collecting information and monitoring trends of World Meteorological
Organization. Through delivering services and aid of the World Health Organization.
Also through peacekeeping which is the goal of the largest intergovernmental
organization UN (United Nations). It also helps the Philippines especially in the
economic because international organization invest different kinds of businesses. These
businesses help the country by paying taxes and giving works to the Filipinos to provide
the needs of their family.
