Philippines and Canada are two different economic spectrum. The former has historically struggled with poverty from the period of colonization to today’s rapid globalization with poverty incidence of 21.6% as of 2014 (PSA, 2016). Canada, on the other hand, has 9.7% rate of low income but majority of those are transitory. From 2005-2010, only 1.5% are considered in persistent low income (Statistics Canada, 2015 as cited by Lamman, & McIntyre, 2016). Beyond these numbers, there remains a grim reality that faced citizens within the poverty thresholds from both nations.
Poverty is classified as the state or condition of having little or no money, goods, or means of support. According to the United States Census Bureau, the official poverty rate in 2014 was 14.8 percent, there were 46.7 million people in poverty. Poverty has always been present around the world whether the country be rich or poor. There are numerous causes of poverty ranging anywhere from the lack of an individual to exploitation by people and businesses with power and influence.

The creation of programs such as the American Green Card Lottery has also resulted in an increase in the number of foreigners in the USA. Individuals have moved to the USA in pursuit of higher education or employment opportunities. In their article, Birthplace Diversity and Economic Prosperity from the National Bureau of Economic Research, authors note that the number of students in the country is high compared to other nations. They also claim that the move can be attributed to the improved education and social structures (Alesina et al. 3).

Labor sectors estimate the number of job seekers entering the labor market annually at around 700,000 and 800,000, which is considered a huge number compared to the production capacity of the Egyptian economy (Ghoneim, Ahmed). In addition, there is a great conflict between availability of skills and labor market requirements. The lack of qualified human capital implies that there is a mismatch between the outputs of the education system and the demands of the labor market, which results in high rates of unemployment reaching about 12% (Ghoneim, Ahmed). Hence, migration to other countries is regarded as an outlet for those unemployed. Egyptian migrants usually send back home remittances that represent one of the largest financial inflows to the country.

CONTEXT This paper is written in the context of globalisation and informal settlements in Metro Manila. It discusses how the informal settlements face a competition for shelter with the wealthy class of the society because of the constant increase in land prices in the centre of the city. It makes two major arguments: the shelter crisis in developing countries is a major consequence of globalisation due to rising land values and increasing housing demands. And, the informal settlements created due to this are forgotten by the government, urban planners and policy-makers in the city.
Economic globalization refers to the free movement of goods, capital, services, technology and information around the world. Since the 1990s, due to the improvement of advanced communication technologies and the rapid expansion of multinational corporations, economic globalization has become an important trend of the world economic development. This trend not only provides a broader space for international markets for all countries, but also aggravates the competition among countries for market and resources. Economic globalization is an inevitable result of the development that no country can evade. In this paper, we will discuss that economic globalization is beneficial or not to developing countries.
CALELAO, Kyla Ellen, M. SURVIVING THE CYNICAL EFFECT OF GLOBALIZATION IN THE COUNTRY “We were all humans until, race disconnected us, religion separated us, politics divided us, and wealth classified us.” Despite of the great impact of it in the advancement of our country, globalization has been threatening our lives and the worst thing is that we, Filipinos, are not aware of this threat brought by the phenomenon. The widening of the gap between the rich and poor people, a result of globalization, puts the Philippines deeper in the quicksand of poverty and also causes social injustices among men.
