Finding Employment in the Philippines
Philippines already has a very high unemployment rate and the last thing they want is foreigners coming over and competing for jobs. The local wages are such that many foreigners would find it a challenge to survive on them anyway.
Investment in the Philippines
Anyone planning to invest their savings into a business opportunity in the Philippines should be extremely cautious. There are many opportunities but there are also many scams and risks for the novice. I would advise you to leave a substantial amount of your capital back home in secure investments and live off the interest from these if possible. If investing in the Philippines start off small and keep your investments distributed.
Starting a Business in the Philippines
Startup costs for a new business can be much lower in the Philippines enabling you to do things that may have seemed beyond your reach back home. As with any new business do your market research. A business model and service that works well at home may not be viable in the Philippines environment.
Be warned that while at first there does not seem to be any regulation or registration requirements this is not the case. Generally very small ventures are left alone but as soon as your business starts to be successful or has a high profile it will come to the attention of authorities at which time you will need to have all the required permits and accounting practices in place. Getting these can be more challenging than back home.
