Description

Background In the Philippines, as in many developing countries in Asia, there is a distinct spatial shift that is often a characteristic of rapid urbanization. As the countryside becomes urbanized, land use conversion of agricultural lands to non-agricultural uses occurs at a frenetic pace. This change was most apparent in the Philippines during the eighties, when the Fidel Ramos administration developed industrial zones in unproductive agricultural areas as both an employment generation strategy and an urban development policy. With this aggressive industrialization programme, President Ramos attempted to make domestic industries more globally competitive. At the same time, he sought to move development away from the traditional socioeconomic and political centre, Metro Manila, to the agricultural areas.
