Fluid politics, unbridled corruption and criminality could frustrate hopes of the Philippines to get the bulk of the developed world`s business-process outsourcing (BPO) contracts, says an expert with the University of Asia and the Pacific in a study commissioned by a NEDA think tank.
The study ordered from the UA&P by the Philippine Institute for Development Studies (PIDS), titled “Sustaining Philippine Advantage in Business-Process Outsourcing,” prepared by Prof. Ceferino Rodolfo, says the possibility for the Philippines to enjoy hyper growth in the offshore BPO services field still remains great.
