Response to your request

While our aim is to provide information whenever possible, in this instance, it is important to note that this Office does not produce the datasets being requested. The PIDS relies on administrative data from other agencies for its research studies. Likewise, the PIDS Economic and Social Database (https://econdb.pids.gov.ph/) only consolidates a wide range of Philippine economic and social data obtained from various government sources. 

For the specific data you require, we recommend reaching out directly to the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) (https://psa.gov.ph/). They are the primary source for many official statistical datasets in the Philippines and would be better equipped to assist you in obtaining the information you need.

For further assistance, you may review the FAQ section of the eFOI site: https://www.foi.gov.ph/help.
