Philippines is Most Gender-Equal Country in Asia – report
https://www.cnn.ph/news/2018/12/18/Philippines-Global-Gender-Gap
Report-2018.html
Metro Manila (CNN Philippines, December 18)
— The Philippines remains the top Asian country with the narrowest gap between men and women,
according to a global report released Tuesday.
The World Economic Forum (WEF)'s Global Gender Gap Report for 2018 also ranked the
Philippines eighth among 149 countries in achieving gender equality. It said the country got its
record-high score of 0.799, which means it has closed almost 80 percent of its overall gender gap.
The country also improved two notches from being on the 10th spot in 2017.
The report listed the Philippines among the five countries that have achieved full parity in political
and economic leadership – with women legislators, senior officials and managers. Other countries
with the same achievement are Laos, Bahamas, Colombia, and Jamaica. The Philippines' gender gap
in the educational attainment pillar remains closed, like last year. This means the literacy rate and
enrolment in schools are almost the same for men and women.
Meanwhile, the report noted that the Philippines managed to narrow its Economic
Participation and Opportunity gender gap "due to increases in wage equality for similar work and
women's estimated earned income," the report noted. Based on the WEF's annual Executive Opinion
Survey, the Philippines closed 79 percent of the gap on wage equality this year, from 75 percent in
2017. The Philippines, however, got the lowest score of 0.416 in the area of political empowerment,
which means it has yet to close almost 60 percent of the gap, and it is not alone. "Political
Empowerment is where the gender gap remains the widest (globally): only 23% of the political gap
– unchanged since last year – has been closed,
and no country has yet fully closed political empowerment gaps," the report said. This indicator
measures the gap between men and women at the highest level of political decision-making, either
as head of state or in key parliamentary and ministerial positions.
In the Philippines, President Rodrigo Duterte has publicly said he prefers to appoint
men in government, saying they can get his many orders done.
Globally, a lot more needs to be done. "Today, the Global Gender Gap score stands at 68 percent.
This means that, on average, there is still a 32 percent gap to close," the report said.

433 bettors bag P236-million Grand Lotto Jackpot
By: Abby Boiser, Krixia Subingsubing, Marlon Ramos
MANILA, Philippines -- On Saturday night, the PCSO made history - or rather became qualified to
be cited by Ripley’s, the American franchise dealing in events so unusual that people doubt the
claims -- after 433 bettors beat the odds to win and share the P236-million Grand Lotto jackpot.
Each winner from that draw will get p545,245.24, which is subject to a final tax of 20 percent.
Furthermore, the winning combination became quite unique for its arithmetoc progression
consisting of multiples of nine: 9-18-27-36-45-54.
PCSO Assistant General Manager Arnel Casa said a pattern was also established in the playing
habits of bettors consistent with yesterday’s results, as he noted that 264 bets were placed on the
same winning combination on September 26. He added that a record of 331 bettors won the second
prize worth P100,000 for picking five of the six winning numbers. Among the winners, the PCSO
said 151 were from Metro Manila, 34 from Cavite, 22 from Rizal, 21 from Bulacan and Laguna, 14
from Batangas and Cebu, 13 from Pampanga, 11 from Pangasinan, and the rest scattered across the
country.
