Great expectations lie ahead in 2011, the Year of the Rabbit. Characteristic of the rabbit, the year promises to bring joy, peace, and good fortune. It is believed to be a placid year, unlike the ferocious Year of the Tiger just past. Aligned with the gentle nature of the rabbit, people will be temperate in their dealings, realizing that warmth and persuasion over force will get them closer to their goals. People will act with discretion which is a refreshing, welcome change from the crassness of the previous year. In all, diplomacy and international relations are expected to reign.
The business community is upbeat as it looks at a growth rate of 7.5%. This will be led by private and public partnerships in infrastructure. Such optimistic scenario will push local investors rather than foreign ones to drive growth.
Which industries are expected to thrive this year? Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) will continue to boom, as the country now enjoys the distinction of being the call center capital of the world, surpassing India, with expected revenues of $12-$13 billion this year. This is expected to balloon to $100 billion in 2020. Likewise, tourism will enjoy a boost that will benefit the hospitality and service sectors. The property market will experience an upswing with the expected entry of multinational corporations and greater influx of tourists. The retail industry will continue to rake it in on the wave of strong remittance flows from OFWs.
