Way Forward

"e;The essays by Calixto Chikiamco in this collection are keen and valuable commentaries on current economic affairs and policies. They call to mind economic policies that need change if, as a country, we are to sustain economic growth at a high and efficient level of performance. When they deal with economic policies, the essays try to disentangle them so as to expose what is wrong and to propose solutions at their fine roots. Thus, unlike some commentaries that criticize policies, he also offers the way out of the problems."e;- Dr. Gerardo P. Sicat, former Socioeconomic Planning Secretary and National Economic and Development Authority Director-General
