    The document summarizes key statistics about income, population, health, education, and malnutrition in the Philippines. It states that a family of 5 needs at least PHP 7,337 on average per month to meet basic food needs, while PHP 10,481 is needed to meet both food and non-food needs. The population of the Philippines is 108.7 million as of 2016. Child mortality rates have declined but remain high, with the under-5 mortality rate at 28% and neonatal mortality at 14%. Malnutrition, especially protein-energy malnutrition and micronutrient deficiencies, affects many Filipinos. The education system graduates over 19 million elementary students and over 24 million high school students each year.

    INCOME

    Income Measurement

    A family of five needed no less than Php 7,337 on average to meet the family`s basic
    food needs for a month. This amount is the food threshold. On the hand, no less than Php 10,481
    on average was needed to meet both basic food and non-food needs of a family of five in a
    month.

    Food threshold is the minimum income required to meet the basic food needs, satisfying
    the nutritional requirements set by the Food and Nutrition Research Institute (FNRI) to ensure
    that one remains economically and socially productive. On the other hand, poverty threshold is
    the minimum income required to meet the basic food and non-food needs such as clothing, fuel,
    light and water, housing, rental of occupied dwelling units, transportation and communication,
    health and education expenses, non-durable furnishing, household operation and personal care
    and effects.

    GNI (Gross National Income)

    -GNI is the total amount of money earned by a nation`s people and businesses. It is used
    to measure and track a nation`s wealth from year to year.

    GNI(Philippines) - 1.053 Trillion PPP dolars

    GNI per capita

    -GNI per capita is gross national income divided by midyear population. GNI (formerly
    GNP) is the sum of value added by all resident producers plus any product taxes (less subsidies)
    not included in the valuation of output plus net receipts of primary income (compensation of
    employees and property income)from abroad.

    The value for GNI per capita in Philippines was 168,702.90 as of 2016 (latest). It reached
    a maximum value of 168,702.90 in 2016 and a minimum value of 506.72 in 1960.

    Childbirth and Death Mortality

    Statistics show that many newborns in the Philippines don`t survive infancy. Many of these
    deaths result from diseases and condition that are easily preventable or treatable when proven,
    cost -effective solutions are available.

    The Philippines is truly committed to accelerating progress in reducing child mortality


    and meeting MDG4, it must concrete more attention and resources on delivering quality care and
    high-impact newborn solutions at the time of birth and during the critical first days and weeks
    after birth.

    In 2018, child mortality rate for Philippines was 28.4 deaths per 1,000 live births. Child
    mortality rate of Philippines fell gradually from 84.7 deaths per 1,000 live births in 1969 to 28.4
    deaths per 1,000 live births in 2018.

    The under-five mortality rate (U5MR) is the probability for a child born in a specified
    year to die before reaching the age of five, if subject to current age-specific mortality rates. This
    indicator is expressed as number of deaths per 1000 live births.

    Under-five mortality rate (U5MR), deaths per 1000 live births - 28%

    Infant mortality rate (IMR), deaths per live births - 22%

    Neonatal mortality rate (NMR),deaths per 1000 live births – 14%

    Under-five mortality rate (U5MR), deaths per 1000 live births (male) - 31%

    Under-five mortality rate (U5MR), deaths per 1000 live births (female) -25%

    Number of under-five deaths -67,158


    Malnutrition

    Protein-energy malnutrition (PEM) and micronutrient deficiencies remain the leading


    nutritional problems in the Philippines. The general declining trend in the prevalence of
    underweight, wasting and stunting among Filipino children noted in the past 10 years was
    countered with the increase in the prevalence rate in 1998. About 4 million (31.8%) of the
    preschool population were found to be underweight-for-age, 3 million (19.8%) adolescents and 5
    million (13.2%) adults, including older persons were found to be underweight and chronically
    energy deficient, respectively.

    The status of micronutrient malnutrition is likewise an important concern in the country. The
    vitamin A status of the country is considered severe subclinical deficiency affecting children 6
    months - 5 years (8.2%) and pregnant women (7.1%). Iron deficiency anemia is the most
    alarming of the micronutrient deficiencies affecting a considerable proportion of infants (56.6%),
    pregnant women (50.7%), lactating women (45.7%) and male older persons (49.1%). Prevalence
    of IDD was mild (71mg/L). However, 35.8% children 6 – 12 years old still suffer from moderate
    and severe IDD.
    Overweight and obesity are also prevalent in the country affecting a significant proportion of
    children, adolescents and adults, which predispose them to certain nutrition and health risks. This
    is evident in the rising trend in the prevalence of diseases of the heart and the vascular system.

    Malnutrition in the Philippines is caused by a host of interrelated factors – health, physical,


    social, economic and others. Food supply and how it is distributed and consumed by the
    populace have consequent impact on nutritional status. While reports indicate that there are
    enough food to feed the country, many Filipinos continue to go hungry and become
    malnourished due to inadequate intake of food and nutrients. In fact, except for protein, the
    typical Filipino diet was found to be grossly inadequate for energy and other nutrients. In order
    to compensate for the inadequate energy intake, the body utilizes protein as energy source. Thus,
    the continuing PEM problem in the country.

    The present economic situation of the country further aggravates the malnutrition problem with
    about 28 million Filipinos unable to buy food to meet their nutritional requirements and other
    basic needs. While it was reported that the health status of Filipinos improved in terms of the
    decrease in the mortality rates of mothers and infants, the rising incidence of infectious diseases
    such as diarrhea and respiratory diseases contributed to the poor nutritional status of many
    Filipinos.
