Prof.Cielo Magno for May 2025 senator!❤🎉
Economics is simple logic, but powerful guide to better descision-making especially in public policy
Napakahusay na mga ekonomista! It’s definitely a must watch video if you wanna learn the importance of economics in our society esp in Philippine setting! 🙌
Cielo & Punongbayan are excellent in translating difficult economic concepts to more comprehensive ideas. Listening to this discussion gives peple better perspective why present situations do exist and how economics can help improve human social and financial conditions.

Wtf are you talking about? They're just throwing economic jargons. 😅😂
Agree, economics is everywhere. Not limited to purchasing power and money. It has relevance and implications in our daily lives.
SALAMATt. ! KAILANGAN NAMIN ITO. ! EDUCATE NIYO KAMI BAYAN. !!!! 👍👍👍❤
Ang galing. Ganda ng conversation.
They're public intellectuals. We need more of them to clarify our public discourse.
Great discussion
Very informative haaay. ❤🎉
Our policy makers should, indeed, adopt sound economic advice of our competent and sensible economists. These are not necessarily popular decisions, for expedient politics, but strategic ones to gain long term benefit for the country that is actually tied to the No. 1 concern of every poor citizen -- high prices and insufficient wages
Maganda ung term niya na "Economic Wisdom" to dethrone Political Dynasties that set and control the "rules of the game". Kaso the irony is they just keep on winning. And we have a rule of vox populi, vox dei, let the people decide. If people themselves want to perpetuate dynasties. What can you do about that? How can you create an enabling law if majority ng nasa Congress eh dynasty? Examples: Villar, Estrada, Cayetano.
Clearly, when it comes to Politics what is needed is Political Economy not just Economics kasi inadequate ang answers pag Economics alone it should be interdisciplinary
Excellence vs Equity - underrepresentation
Moral limits of the Market
(40:03) meron tayong kasabihan lalo na sa mga dominant & greedy people: “He who controls the message, controls the masses.” May point si JC on this aspect that politicians wanted to suppress poor people to get control & become rich. The predatory politicians not only control the message but also wanted jurisdictions over the lives of the citizens example of these are dictators! They are concerned about their own interests and reward to few who are in their circle(cronies). It is also because power corrupts! US President Thomas Jefferson’s famous quote: “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights, among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, that to secure these rights governments are instituted among men.” We should elect leaders who are selfless in safeguarding these rights!🙏

Corruption is cultural hindi siya marereduce lang into purely economic terms.
Remission permit - air pollution
Resource course - Africa - oil, lithium, diamonds
Ung host di niya alam ang definition ng "rational choice" ng economists. It is a technical jargon with very exact meaning. Hindi ibig sabihin ng rational is intellectual it means that any choice is deemed rational in economic sense
Political Wisdom is quite a tricky game. Kasi what modes of alteration ang gagawin mo sa Educational System to change the public morality? Ituro natin sa History and Civics or Sibika at Kultura. How do you alter books and will parents even agree to that? Can you write sa textbook ng bata: wag iboto ang corrupt. Do not accept vote buying. Or even if you do, may epekto ba talaga yan? Or real world pragmatism will kick in? 1. It is contentious to teach since there will be backlash from parents and politicians 2. Even if you teach it, may epekto din ba
To businessman - like mayari ng TV5 na boss niya na monopoly ang Smart and Meralco and PLDT but he is not allowed to hit his boss kasi wala na siyang work kinabukasan.
Tanungin mo ung host pag naglagay sa kanya ung pulitiko na binibira niya sa media tatanggapin niya or hindi? Pag nasagot niya yan masasagot niya ung corruption
Confidential Fund - lawyers ang mag-amang Sara and Digong so alam nila ung legal loophole for audit free corruption. Unlike pag tangible buildings ang daling mabutasan jan kasi kitang kita. So ang solution: to legislate stricter rules for Confidential Funds that is should be solely restricted to NBI, AFP, PNP kasi sila talaga ung may need ng Intelligence or surveillance for criminals and terrorists
Trust Capital - yan ang sagot sa Corruption - meaning it's a cultural thing. And how do you change Culture? Realm na yan ng Ethics and Morality hindi Economics
Traffic Management - car vs pedestrian and cyclists Congestion fee - EDSA Car dependent culture Huge expressway - induced demand Widening the roads

Well ung US na independent pag 18 is also a by product of Economics. Like how in the world can you be independent in the Philippines by 18? Eh college grads nga mga jobless
4Ps really don't help .... give people a decent job... a nice salary... for them to live a life that they deserved.....
The problem with these 3 nasa private schools ung anak nila. Kung nasa public ung anak nila makikita nila na ung notebook, bags and sapatos tadtad ng mukha ng pulitiko pati pangalan ng buildings
Hindi mo na macocontrol ung "critical mass of politicians". Alam nila perfectly ung ginagawa nila. What you can change are the people who vote for them because sasabay lang naman ang pulitiko sa pulso ng masa

Ang traffic congestion sa Metro Manila ay epekto yan ng failed policy, short planning sa EDSA, in another word "governnment bureaucracy", not because of drivers buying personal car, pointing fingers to blame the drivers/motorists ay hindi lang absurd, but pretty shallow and clueless of acknowledging the issues of traffic in Metro Manila. It's like blaming a patient in a hospital kasi meron siyang life insurance.
8:49 - Iyong tungkol sa 'mining' na binanggit ni Madam Cielo bilang isang halimbawa ng 'economics', yung sinasabi nya na hindi pinag-uusapan ng gobyerno, 'media' at madla ay yung maling hatian ng kita sa pagmi-mina. Tama sya na dapat 60% (gobyerno) 40% (kumpanya) ang hatian sa kita kasi dapat tayo ang makikinabang ng lubusan hindi ang kumpanya dahil ito nga ay isang "natural resource" pag-aari ng ating bansa. Ganu'n ang ginawa ng bansang Norway nu'ng simula nang matuklasan nila na may krudo sa kanilang bansa na agad nilang ipinatupad ang ganyang hatian. Ngayon mayaman ang bansa nila. Yung tungkol naman sa kasabihang "natural resource curse" ay totoo iyon. Kasi ganun ang nangyari sa bansang Venezuela. Kung matatandaan ninyo na natuklasan din nila na mayaman din pala sila sa krudo pero nauwi lang sa "mismanagement" ang yaman na kinita nila sa pagbungkal ng krudo. Huwag sana tayo matulad sa bansa nila.

@@alfredhitchcock45 Kung ang polusyon na iyong tinutukoy ay 'yung mga kemikal na nahahalo sa kapaligiran ay hindi talaga ako sang-ayon duon. Ngunit kung ang pagkaka-kalbo ng bundok o pagpapatag sa mga bundok ay, hindi talaga maiiwasan iyon. Hindi lang kasi tayo sanay na nakakalbo ang ating mga bundok dahil ganun talaga ang "natural resource mining". Gan'un din naman sa ibang bansa. Ang pagkakaiba lang ay sa kanila, tinataniman ulit nila ito ng mga halaman upang bumerde ulit ang buong kabundukan. Dito kasi sa atin, pagkatapos magmina ay iiwanan nang nakatiwangwang. Kalakip na rito pati mga basura. Walang malawakang "pagwawalis" ika nga ang nagaganap. Karagdagang gastos kasi 'yon sa mga kumpanya ng pagmimina kaya iniiwasan nilang gawin ito.

Those travels are encouraged by the system because hopefully they will bring back foreign investments to create employment which will generate money for the workers thus enable them to purchase goods that will make the economy go round, one of the potential benefits of those travels. You can think of those travel expenses as investments wiht the hope of earning returns over time. Pero bibigyan kita ng argumento laban sa mga magastos na foreign expeditions na yan ni BBM. Ang sasabihin mo lagi, "pano magpupunta sa Pinas ang investors kung MAHAL ANG KURYENTE, LAGI PA BROWN OUT; laging traffic, mabagal internet, matindi ang corruption, maraming walang pinag-aralan kaya no skills, mahal ang bilihin, walang matirahan ..."

But we can still say that they sufficiently expounded on the fact that Economics can help policy-makers to make Data-Driven decisions, the type that the next generation will truly appreciate. Di lang Basta Basta policy making in the end may negative unintended effects pala.

As a market participant, we get frustrated when these jokers comment on the economy based only on economic theories. I believe those people that have created value from something. They don’t get their political affinity to cloud their business decisions. At the end of the day money doesn’t have a flag.
When we overthrow the Marcos Sr. regime we also throw the government capability to care about industry, when steel company is losing in international scene, the government can rescue and cut a deal to certain industry in the end just like the saying " we throw the baby out with the bathwater" we should bring back the government capability to build care and rescue industry just like VietNam, communist sila pero nakapagbuild sila ng industry thru this method.
