PHILIPPINES- One in six school-age children is being deprived of education and the number is rising steadily, the National Statistical Coordination Board (NSCB) said Monday, indicating that the country is still far from its goal of providing education to all.
The percentage of children enrolled in primary school was down to 83 percent in the 2006-2007 school year from 90 percent five years earlier, the NSCB said in a study, according to Agence France Presse (AFP).
The numbers are even worse for secondary education at 59 percent, though they have been steady over five years, AFP said.
President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo acknowledged last month that the rising cost of food and energy might be pricing education out of the reach of some Filipino families. She ordered schools not to require their students to wear uniforms to reduce the cost.
goh, soms weten politici toch van aanpakken..

eldorado
de film eldorado, waar zoveel om te doen is: prijsbeest in cannes, veelbelovend belgisch talent. ik zie wel waarom: mooie fotografie, absurde ingetogen humor, een door het verhaal drijvende eenzaamheid, en een ondermaats maar verademend ritme. maar toch, de vonk sloeg niet over. jammer.
