As Paul Quintos, executive director of the Ecumenical Institute for Labor Education and Research (EILER), sees it, President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo played a particular role in aggravating the fiscal crisis even as it is rooted in policies that were in place before she became president.
Quintos, who took an MSc in Development Studies from the London School of Economics and used to be a research associate at the Philippine Institute of Development Studies (PIDS), said the fiscal crisis has three primary aggravating factors stemming from the prevailing “backward, non-industrialized” economy: imperialist dictates, debt, and bureaucrat capitalism.
Quintos notes that Macapagal-Arroyo was the main proponent of the country’s entry into the World Trade Organization (WTO) as a senator in 1994.
