13 PH Trade with ASEAN Our (growing) trade with ASEAN is largely intraindustry in nature (we trade in products belonging to the same industries) Electronics: We export intermediate components but import finished products We sell Thailand motor vehicle parts; they sell us motor vehicles Our trade relationship in ASEAN are largely complementary rather than competitive in nature; opportunities lie in regional (and global) value chains
AEC & PH Manufacturing PH Manufacturing Industries are already competing in an open regional market. Our key industries are integrated in regional and global supply chains. We are the fastest growing economy in the fastest growing region, amidst global uncertainty.
Manufacturing Resurgence 15
GROSS NATIONAL INCOME by INDUSTRIAL ORIGIN Percent Share to GNI, At Constant Prices 1 st Half, 2013 25
Manufacturing Performance 6.6% growth rate in total Gross Revenue Index, Q1 of 2013 9.7% GVA output in manufacturing relative to GDP, Q1 of 2013 24
16 Our Strategies Develop priority industries Support industry initiatives Provide protection and security
Industry Roadmapping Project On 30 January 2012, the DTI-BOI launched the Industry Development Program (IDP). To date, 21 sectoral roadmaps have been submitted to the DTI and forwarded to PIDS; nine (9) have been presented in Trade & Industry Development (TID) updates. The sectoral roadmaps serve as the building blocks of the Manufacturing Industry Roadmap (MIR) and the Comprehensive National Industrial Strategy (CNIS). The Manufacturing Industry Roadmap was presented in the first TID Update (August 2013). 17
Completed Sectoral Roadmaps 18
Roadmaps under Development 19

21 Identified gaps in HR Skills & Training Requirements
Manufacturing Employment Accounts for 14.5% of employment (3,171,000 jobs) Among PH Strengths Industrial peace Pool of young, trainable, English speaking workers Identified Constraints Need for skilled workers, need for trainings (Metal casting, tool & die, auto & motorcycle parts, furniture, chemical, rubber, plastic, iron & steel) 22
Critical and In-demand Skills / Training requirements Sectors Auto parts, Tool & Die Chemical, Rubber, Plastics Furniture Metal casting Tool & Die Iron & steel Type Design, tool making, prototyping, molding, die & casting Chemical engineering, Materials Engineering Supervisory, managerial, consultancy for improved productivity Foundry technology, Metallurgical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Industrial Engineering, Metal casting Engineering Die design, Tool & Die Engineering Vocational trainings (TESDA) 23
