Good day!

This is Jeremy Cohel Antonio, a fourth year undergraduate student from the University of the Philippines.

I am writing to request data on the total labor force in the Philippines for the period 1970 to 2020. This data will be used for my bachelor’s thesis entitled, “Life Expectancy and Economic Growth in the Philippines: 1970 to 2020,” this first semester of the school year 2021-2022. That said, the intended output of my project is a paper. 

Hoping for a positive response. Thank you and God bless!

Regards,
Jeremy Cohel Antonio
College Student, UP

Good day!

Unfortunately, I cannot find the data I am requesting in the links that you sent me. The data I am requesting is actually the raw data on the labor force or, in particular, the population of employed and unemployed who have contributed in the production of goods and services in the country from the period 1970 to 2020.

Do I need to file another request because foi has already deemed this request a success?

Thank you.

Respectfully,
Jeremy Antonio
