00:00Philippine Statistics Authority or PSA still has almost 2 million unemployed.
00:08It's a big problem because some of the leading products have high prices.
00:13Bernadette Reyes is on the case.
00:18The Department of Trade and Industry has already released the latest suggested retail price guide for those who will buy.
00:25It's effective from February 1.
00:28It includes more than 60 products with high prices,
00:32including sardines, canned meat, evaporada, coffee, water, Pinoy Tasty, and Pinoy Pandesal.
00:38Even soap and batteries are expensive.
00:41Depending on the item, the high price is 2 to 9 percent.
00:45For sardines, for example, it depends on the brand, up to more than 2 pesos.
00:50Pinoy Pandesal also increased it by more than 2 pesos.
00:54While more than 3 pesos for Pinoy Tasty.
01:15According to the Department of Trade and Industry, manufacturers can increase their prices.
01:20But maybe in the next few days, the buyers will feel the price increase in the families.
01:26But for now, they have their own plans on how to budget.
01:30I think it's the same, the quality is not different.
01:34So I will just choose the cheaper one.
01:36If I feel that the taste is the same, then we will go for the cheaper one.
01:42I mix carrots, cabbage, and baguio beans.
01:46Baguio beans are cheap now.
01:47For the sardines, I will also add petchay if it's cheap.
01:51So it will increase.
01:53In the middle of buying, work is more important.
01:57But until this December, there are 1.63 million unemployed, or equivalent to 3.1 percent unemployment rate.
02:06This is lower than last November.
02:08But the rate is the same as last December 2023.
02:12The employment rate reached 96.9 percent this December.
02:16Higher than 96.8 percent last November.
02:20This means that 50.19 million Filipinos have a job or business.
02:26Most of the added jobs are from agriculture and forestry, transportation and storage, construction, public administration, and defense.
