Now I would like to see the Philippines conquer the KPO arena as the No 1 destination for legal and accounting works. It’s taken a few more years to get the ball rolling here like in India but I think in 5 years Philippines could be the best.

Yes, the Philippines is nowadays no different to any worldwide, international company, and as a country will only continue to grow and become a bigger force in the BPO world.

In fact, I believe that it will soon become THE destination of choice for anyone that wants to outsource business tasks overseas.

This is a well written comment. Excellent input! You are right, the government needs to support the private sector in this, just like what the Indian government is doing helping India’s IT industry. You are really good my friend. Great insights. You will be an asset for the local government of Catbalogan. I hope you get the vote you deserve. I’m really proud of you.

Regards,

But my question here is how long kaya will the BPO boom last? Can the government sustain this advantage in BPO amidst the fluid political situation, intermittent threats to physical security, and increasing-worsening graft and corruption which is perceived to be the worst among East Asia’s leading economies. -art g.

I heard that we have growing BPO businesses in Cebu, Davao, Baguio and even Tacloban. It will surely help develop other cities and will alleviate overcrowding here in Metro Manila. If there are opportunities in the provinces why do you have to move here? Good point!

I agree with you, that’s why I really wanted to write about BPO in the Philippines. I am proud of what Filipinos have achieved in this particular industry. I hope we continue to be competitive. Thanks for the comment.

I’m the brother he mentioned in the latter part of the article and the new sis-in-law is my wife. I agree Filipinos exhibit versatile skill set that makes them suitable for BPO work. The mixed of dedication, good education, proficiency in English really pegged the Filipinos as one of the top class in this industry. In the future the country and private institutions should initiate aggressive investment to develop BPO offices not just at the finance capital of the country but even in other areas/municipalities/provinces. This will employ hundreds of thousands more and will give significant economic burst, not to mention helping in alleviating overcrowding and traffic in metro manila.

But yeah, I agree that the Philippines is a first class BPO! Mas marami tayong edge with the other countries. Sa English pa lang, panalo na tayo! Chaka our positive thinking and being ‘masayahin’ is a plus. Ako, I don’t mind going back to Pinas and work with BPO’s there, kasi sa totoo lang marami din naman matutunan, di lang sya basta back office. :)
