Baizas 02:57 PM, Oct 13, 2023 

Hello! 

I'd like to request a list of the monthly poverty thresholds (for a family of five) for all regions in the Philippines, as of 2021. The preliminary 2021 report on poverty statistics available on the PSA website only includes the monthly poverty threshold for the entire country, but I'd like to see a regional breakdown.

Thanks!
