PEDP 2011-2013 for LIMITED CIRCULATION only

I. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The global export environment is evolving opportunities for the Philippines (PHL) to grow exports of merchandise and services by forty percent (+40) in the next three years (2011-2013) and double the prior-period average in 2016. By 2016, total Philippine exports will exceed one hundred twenty billion U.S. dollars (US$ 120B). This is achieved by building on the current business for the period 2011-2013 and developing Key Export Sectors that have high potential for growth. In the subsequent three years (20142016), growth is attained by implementing an agro-industrial resource-base export development program. The characteristics of exports and global trade are radically changing as the world recovers from the recent global financial crisis and the natural disasters in Japan. Moreover, the unfolding political events in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) will contribute to volatile market conditions. The key features are the faster growth of emerging economies with large consumer populations and the slower single-digit growth of developed markets. This is resulting to a re-balancing of consumption, export market size and supply chain configurations in relation to pre-crises periods. Free trade agreements and international trade negotiations become important factors in this changed environment as these elements are significant determinants in re-deploying resources of global export products and services. Further influencing these changes are emerging economies that are moving up the value chain like China, India and ASEAN among others. The immediate consequence of these developments is the re-migration of certain supply chain components to strategic locations that can access large consumer base markets and at the same time provide a deep pool of cost-effective manufacturing and knowledge workers. The situation presents an opportunity for the Philippines to capture export-oriented investments considering that sixty-eight percent (68%) of PHL merchandise exports are intermediate goods. This means that the main drivers of Philippine exports today are global supply and value chains as well as direct investments. Equally, the emergence of new middle class consumers in developing countries and the recovery of mature economies offer Philippine finished goods renewed opportunities for growth. However, income mobility and improved technological capabilities have created intense competition in the marketing of finished goods necessitating investments in innovative consumer-capture activities. The key elements defining opportunities in this new world order are: a) supply and value chain management; b) international trade negotiations; and c) innovations in finished goods marketing. In this context, the Philippine Export Development Plan (PEDP) 2011-2013 identifies Key Export Sectors controlling eighty-seven (87%) of current business to drive export growth. These are: IT-BPO and other services; electronics; agribusiness products (food, coconut and other resource-based products); minerals; shipbuilding; motor vehicle parts; garments and textiles; homestyle products (furniture, furnishings, decors); and wearables (fashion accessories, shoes, bags, jewelry).

PEDP 2011-2013 for LIMITED CIRCULATION only These products and services belong to large categories in growing markets. Importantly, they have a reasonable probability of continued success based on current volumes, supply chain attributes, local value-added and total employment. Also, these sectors are consistent with the priorities of the Philippine Development Plan 2011-2016 and significantly contribute to inclusive growth. Organic and natural products, as well as green exports, shall be managed as a continuing product strategy. It will be linked with tourism, trade and investment promotions to expand its application on a wide product and service spectrum according to opportunities presented by a rapidly growing consumer base worldwide. Based on these global market opportunities and the capabilities of the Philippine exporting community, the PEDP formulated core strategies designed to achieve target revenues. These core strategies are applicable to all export sectors. Sector-specific strategies are defined in their individual roadmaps. The core product strategies are: 1. Move up the value chain. 2. Capture higher-value processes in the global supply chain. 3. Develop product linkages for natural, organic and certification-enabled products. The core market strategies are: 1. Maximize benefits of Free Trade Agreements. 2. Target high-growth emerging markets. 3. Attract the migration of supply chain nodes to the Philippines. The key export promotion strategy is integrating tourism, services and merchandise trade not only to maximize returns on promotional spending but also to achieve market share growth and the capacity to sustain it. Furthermore, export promotions shall focus on precision (quality) rather than profusion (quantity). To be able to implement the PEDP strategies, the Export Development Council shall be strengthened and the Export Development Act revised to conform to changing realities. Through these renewals, a legislative agenda will be pursued to arrive at a more cohesive domestic and international policy environment. A National Export Development and Competitiveness Fund (NEDAC Fund) shall finance integrated promotional efforts, SME assistance in finished goods marketing and continuous training for workers in the exporting community. The source of the fund will initially come from the Office of the President (OP) amounting to P100 million per year starting 2011 until it is subsequently included in the budget of the DTI. The DBM will facilitate transfer of the initial funds from the OP to a DTI line budget item. Finally, the exporting community believes that the key to the success of Philippine exports is the President of the Philippines.

The PEDP reaffirms the President as the champion of Philippine exports. Through his inspired and inspiring leadership, the EDC partnership will be strengthened, motivated and empowered to grow exports through 2013 and double it by 2016.

II. THE PLANNING PROCESS


The Philippine Export Development Plan (PEDP) 2011-2013 builds on the achievements attained and lessons learned in the implementation of previous PEDPs. As stated in the Export Development Act (EDA), the role of the private sector in export development is driving business to achieve export targets. The role of the public sector is creating an enabling environment by formulating and implementing policies based on operating realities and the imperatives of public governance. The mechanism for developing achievable export targets and formulating enabling policies is the Export Development Council (EDC). The method is consultations. Based on these consultations, what the private sector needs to do to drive exports and what the public sector needs to do to enable it, are fused in a three-year strategic plan - the PEDP.

A. Objective of the Plan


The objective of the PEDP is specified in the Export Development Act: ARTICLE 2 INSTITUTIONAL STRUCTURES AND STRATEGIES SEC. 5. Philippine Export Development Plan (PEDP). - The President of the Republic of the Philippines shall approve a rolling three-year Philippine Export Development Plan prepared by the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) which shall form part of the Medium-Term Philippine Development Plan (MTPDP). It shall be formulated in consultation with the private sector, validated and updated semestrally. The PEDP shall define the country's annual and medium-term export thrusts, strategies, programs and projects and shall be jointly implemented by the government, export and other concerned sectors.

B. Consultations on Export Targets and Strategies


The consultations started in February 2010 and continued until December. The scope was nationwide involving the entire network of the EDC and all sector representative groups. Consultations in February began with the Export Development Council Visioning Workshop where directions were set for the PEDP and indicative strategies formulated. A strategic outcome of the workshop is the decision of stakeholders to update the EDA making it relevant to changes in the global environment fifteen years since the law was enacted. The goal is to establish lasting solutions to recurring export problems. While the EDA review is on-going, measures that can be taken immediately to remedy urgent export development issues are being done through the EDC. Another strategic outcome is the EDCs Legislative Agenda designed to enshrine in the law lasting solutions to chronic difficulties in export development. These are in the areas of Fiscal Incentives, the Tariff and Customs Code, the Philippine Marine Act, the National Internal Revenue Code and the Anti-Trust Law. Also during the workshop, an expert economist (Dr. Cayetano Paderanga) presented a global economic outlook with emphasis on the impact of the recent global financial crisis. His diagnosis 3

PEDP 2011-2013 for LIMITED CIRCULATION only and prognosis became part of the basis of the strategies in the PEDP and the industry roadmaps. Sector representatives likewise presented market and export performance updates to form part of the strategy basis. A key activity in the workshop was a needs-assessment by the private and public sectors to determine what needs to be done to achieve export goals. One of the outcomes of this activity is the agreement to revise the vision and mission of the EDC making innovation, transformation and continuous improvement a focal point of export development. After the EDC Strategic workshop, more consultations were conducted with the Council, its Executive Committee, sector groups and government agencies. More than thirty consultation meetings took place including regional conferences involving broad-base representation from the exporting community in the National Capital Region, Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao. Strategies were discussed, revised and finalized. Targets by sector were agreed.

C. Consultations on Export Policies


As stated, a needs-assessment was conducted during the consultations to identify targets and strategies, issues on the export policy environment and priorities in policy requirements. It became apparent from the discussions that many of the policy needs and challenges in export development appear to be either recurring difficulties, persistent hurdles or both. These multisectoral and cross-cutting concerns for example are: 1. Harmonizing local, national and international trade policies to support exports. 2. Aligning policies, promotional initiatives and market intelligence consistent with export strategies among government agencies (DA, DTI, DFA, DOT) and among organizations within the agency. 3. Reducing costs of doing business through simplified approval of permits and improved infrastructure. 4. Simplifying application and enabling exporters to have a more meaningful access to credit. 5. Re-tooling of the labor force through human capital interventions such as education and skills training compatible with business needs to increase their productivity. 6. Providing access to raw materials, updated technology and innovation. 7. Formulating foreign exchange policies supportive of exports. 8. Reforming labor laws on legislated wages, apprenticeships and unions. 9. Involving the exporting community in conducting international trade negotiations. 10. Maximizing benefits from trade agreements through knowledge and implementation services. Crucially, there are two other serious concerns which consistently surfaced in all the meetings: 1. Persistent corruption in some national government agencies and local government units. 2. The need for funding support for export promotions and other export development initiatives especially for SMEs.

PEDP 2011-2013 for LIMITED CIRCULATION only There are also sector-specific concerns that continue to persist. A few examples are: 1. Food and Organic Products- implementing the Agriculture and Fisheries Modernization Act, increasing investments in agriculture, establishing a Food Safety Law 2. IT/BPO- international advertising promoting the Philippines 3. Coconut Products- assistance on geotextiles machines and technology, implementation of a coconut tree replanting program 4. Mining- implementation of the Mining Act 5. Automotives- issues on pertinent Executive Orders and the Motor Vehicle Industry Development Plan 6. Garments- support for the U.S. Save Our Industries Act 7. Homestyle Products- implementation of a resource-based export development program Equally, the view that many, if not all, of these concerns are continuously being addressed by government with an appreciable level of success has to be considered to be able to identify measures necessary to sustain the effort effectively. A number of these concerns have been resolved at some point but resurfaced subsequently. Others were taken through an earnest process for resolution but stalled along the way. As such, the issue does not seem to be one of neglect but sustainability, not one of competency but continuity. The effort to maintain policy cohesion in an environment of constant change and the endeavor to incessantly improve the bureaucracy through progressive reforms do not seem to suffer from any lack of dedication from the majority of professionals in the government sector. What may be needed are sustained encouragement, motivation and cooperation from the private sector. This is especially with reference to corruption in public and private governance. The President encourages cooperation between government and private enterprise to identify individuals, groups and structural environments engaged in corruption so that these elements are corrected accordingly while ensuring continued protection of the citizenry and promulgation of good values, efficiency and effectiveness in business and in government.

D. Outcome: PEDP Targets, Strategies and Policy Initiatives


From these consultations, the export targets, strategies and policy agenda were finalized and incorporated in the plan. The plan contains solutions to both policy and public-private governance issues. It defines strategic guideposts designed to exploit export market opportunities and improve in-country capacities. Importantly, these targets, strategies and policy concerns were discussed with the DTI Secretary, the Chairperson of the EDC. His advice and perspective were solicited to ensure the PEDP is aligned with the priorities of the Philippine Development Plan (PDP) 2011-2016, the Cabinet Economic Managers, and the President.

III. EXPORT REVENUES: 2011-2013 Targets & 2014-2016 Forecasts vs. Prior PEDP Periods
Given unfolding global market conditions, the Philippines will grow exports of merchandise and services by forty percent (+40%) in 2011-2013 versus 2008-2010. By 2016, total exports will double versus the 2008-2010 average exceeding one hundred twenty billion US dollars (US$ 120B). Exports will grow in the coming three-years (2011-2013) by building on our current business. It will double in the next three years (2014-2016) through an export development program anchored on our agro-industrial resource-base. Merchandise exports are targeted to grow by thirty-five percent (+35%) while total services by sixty percent (+60%) for 2011-2013. In the following three-year PEDP cycle (2014-2016), merchandise exports are forecasted to grow by another thirty-four percent (+34%) and services by forty percent (+40%). In US dollar values, merchandise exports will continue to be the primary revenue stream at seventy-seven percent (77%) of total Philippine exports by 2016.

These sectors belong to large categories in growing markets. They have reasonable probability of continued success based on current volumes, supply chain attributes, local value-added and total employment. Also, these sectors are consistent with the priorities of the Philippine Development Plan (PDP) 2011-2016. From a business perspective, current volumes refer to having attained the critical mass to allow re-investment for growth. Supply chain attributes mean that these export sectors are in activities that enable them to move up the value chain in manufacturing and designing service offers or in capturing high-income consumers. Local value-added pertains to the ability and potential of these sectors to cultivate indigenous innovation. Total employment is the capability to contribute to economic and human development essential for businesses to prosper in the long-term.

PEDP 2011-2013 for LIMITED CIRCULATION only More importantly, because of changes in the global trading environment, these export sectors are in a natural position to grow. This natural positioning comes from their merchandise-mix and product-market combination relative to supply chains, distribution channels and disposable income levels of their current and potential consumers. From a public governance perspective, these export sectors engender inclusive growth. Table 3: KEY SECTOR ANALYSIS

Value-Enhanced Categories There are certain products in the Philippine export portfolio whose features are different from the common characteristics of the Key Export Sectors. These products compete in rapidly growing export markets where the Philippines is capturing shares meaningfully. For purposes of this Plan, these products are called Value-enhanced Categories. In prior PEDPs, Organic and Natural Products (ONP) were included among the Revenue Streams. ONPs are still a priority considering the growing size of this business around the world. One estimate is that the global revenue stream of ONP-related businesses is more than one trillion U.S. dollars. Additionally, there is an expanding sector in the Philippine exporting community engaged in ONP and related enterprises successfully promoting Filipino talent and natural resources. ONPs and related services have a wide range of business applications embracing virtually every product and service category. From tourism to medical services; leisure sports to health and wellness; food to textile products; and green cell-phones to hybrid cars. In fact, because of 9

PEDP 2011-2013 for LIMITED CIRCULATION only climate change and global warming, there are indicators that NOPs and related services can be the biggest export enterprise in the future. Moreover, Green Exports (or the greening of exports) is a strategy to achieve incremental growth on top of the mainstream key export sectors while boosting the growth and diversification of generic 0NPs. The EDC and the BETP will continue to work with the ONP sector in achieving broad application of this strategy and in developing metrics to measure progress. Similarly, Halal and Kosher products deserve equal attention considering the size and growth of this category and the wide application of its performance attributes. BETP reports that the market for Halal and Kosher food is over six hundred billion dollars (US$ 600B) around the world growing by at least ten percent yearly. Expanding the scope of the support and accreditation services of DTI for Halal and Kosher products will help increase Philippine market shares in these growing market segments. To this end, the PEDP shall prioritize on accelerating the on-going initiative of establishing the Philippine Halal Certification Body through the efforts of the DA and the DTI. The objective is to achieve this within the current PEDP cycle (2011-2013).

V. SECTOR TARGETS

The PEDP total export targets are the sum of the targets of the Key Export Sectors plus forecasts for the rest of the export product categories. The sector targets, on the other hand, are a function of the roadmaps and business strategies of the firms comprising the sector. Based on extensive consultations earlier described, targets were assessed and agreed utilizing, among others, conventional benchmarks to ascertain achievability.

Global Environment: Six-Year View During the consultations, stakeholders recognized that many of the things needed to be done to restart sustainable export growth in the aftermath of the global financial crisis will take more than three years to accomplish. This is with respect to both private business and government. The global export market is changing radically compared to the past three years because of the varying degrees of the crisis-impact between developed and developing economies. While the global economy is forecasted to grow by three percent (+3%) year-on-year (YOY) in the next three years, advanced economies will grow by only two percent YOY (+2%). The U.S. will have a YOY growth of two percent (+2%) and EU will grow by only one percent (+1%) given continuing challenges with what appears to be a delayed impact of the crisis on some EU countries (Source: Paderanga Global Outlook, Feb. 2010). 13

PEDP 2011-2013 for LIMITED CIRCULATION only

Importantly, the earthquake, tsunami and nuclear-reactor disasters in Japan last March 11, 2011 coupled with the unfolding socio-political events in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) which started in February 2011 will have global economic consequences. While the immediate outlook is one of dramatic contraction in Japans exports and overall contribution to the world economy and oil-price instability because of conflicts in the MENA Region, rebuilding Japan and prospects in a democratized MENA will have their positive outcomes. The worlds experience with natural calamities and man-made crises illustrate this point. Hurricane Katrina, the Kobe earthquake, the Indian Ocean tsunami and many more similar disasters in the past twenty years demonstrate how affected countries and the international community can work together to quickly recover from these tragic events. Equally, the British Petroleum oil-rig explosion in the Gulf of Mexico and other oil-spills, the Three-Mile Island and Chernobyl nuclear plant accidents, and the recent 2008 global financial crisis, are profound examples of how nations and governments find effective solutions to problems that appear insurmountable at the onset. In the case of Japan, its expected massive disaster-recovery efforts will generate opportunities considering its global financial resources, technological capabilities, supply chain model and export market shares. In the case of the MENA region, the experience of many countries transitioning from centrally-controlled economies to market-based democracies, whether or not these political transformations result to replacements in leaders and personalities, demonstrate that economic growth inevitably follows these changes. Moreover, the obvious importance of oil to the world has always compelled the community of nations to collaborate in swiftly reestablishing supply and price stability during episodes of volatility. The world is united in emphasizing that human development, restoring and improving quality of life, and securing the future are the priorities in Japan and the MENA Region. In fact, everyone in general recognizes that the welfare of people is the priority in responding to natural calamities or armed conflicts. It is precisely these priorities that create international trade and investment opportunities. On the other hand, emerging economies are expected to grow YOY by six percent (+6%) in the next three years. Crucially, regions with the largest consumer base will grow year-on-year at an average of more than three times that of developed nations: China by eight-and-a-half percent (+8.5%), India by seven-and-a-half percent (+7.5%) and ASEAN by four percent (+4%). For the private sector, the implications of this situation on export sales, market development investments, consumer market size, supply chain dynamics, and a host of other strategic business determinants are profound. This is especially true for multinational corporations which are driving Philippine exports. Re-setting the plans and operations of these companies will take more than three years to complete. Importantly, the assessment is higher and sustainable export growth will come from agricultural (food) and resource-based products (homestyle, construction materials, natural & organic industrial and finished goods) given the local value-added of these categories, the global market size where they compete and the product differentiation features of Philippine design and functionality. Given the scope of this activity, an export development program anchored on our agro-industrial resource-base must be formulated in the next three years and implemented in the next PEDP cycle (2014-2016).

14

PEDP 2011-2013 for LIMITED CIRCULATION only For the public sector, while there is optimism and trust in the newly-elected leadership, the total package of government reforms and support needed to enable sustained export growth is viewed to take more than three years to accomplish. This is especially considering the requirements of an agro-industrial resource-base export development program. Table 6 shows how Philippine exports might unfold beyond 2011-2013 into 2014-2016, assuming that the private sector can harness the opportunities these changes bring and the public sector is able to actualize reforms.

VI. OVERVIEW OF PRODUCT & MARKET BEHAVIOR


Given the strategic direction to build on current business in the next three years, it is important to understand the following: Where the business is coming from (products and services). Table 2 shows that from the 2006-2008 average, fifty-three percent (53%) of total exports and sixty-two percent (62%) of merchandise exports come from electronics. Nine percent (9%) of total exports come from motor vehicle parts and mineral products. These exports are largely intermediate goods and raw materials going to export destinations where they are assembled as finished goods for re-export to consumer markets or partly sold to domestic consumers. In the case of mineral products they are to a certain extent utilized to fuel exports of the country of destination. Seventy-five percent (75%) of merchandise exports are for re-export to consumer markets. Less than twenty-five percent (25%) of merchandise exports go directly to consumers or end-users. It is less because portions of food, garments and textile, coconut products and wearables are also intermediate goods. This means that the greater majority of our exports today are influenced by the dynamics of the global supply chain of their respective consumer product categories. This also means that the main driver of Philippine exports is direct investments. Additionally, services being largely contact centers of foreign companies, form part of the overall global value chain and are investment driven. For finished goods exports, relating their marginal shares versus total sales and their equally marginal market shares in their growing markets suggest that finished goods exports need consumer research-based advertising and promotions to capture share-of-mind and share-of-pocket in their competitive operating environment. The pie-chart below further illustrates the characteristics of Philippine exports productmix by comparing 2001 and 2010.

Chart 1: COMPARATIVE PRODUCT MIX, 2001 vs. 2010

17

PEDP 2011-2013 for LIMITED CIRCULATION only From 2001 to 2010, a significant portion of Philippine exports is still in intermediate goods. However, finished goods have shrunk in terms of share in the product-mix which indicate loss of competitiveness in the marketplace (see Chart 2: Markets of Philippine Exports).

Where the business is going (markets). From 2006-2010, majority of Philippine merchandise exports go to North and Southeast Asia (60%) of which, twenty-three percent (23%) go to China and twenty percent (20%) to Japan and Korea. The second major market is the Americas with nineteen percent (19%), followed by Europe with eighteen percent (18%). For the remainder of market, one percent (1%) each goes to Middle East-Africa and to ANZ-Oceania. And less than one percent (0.8%) goes to Central-South Asia and Russia.

2001 2006-2010 AVE

The shift of our export business from North America and Europe to North and Southeast Asia is a result of the combined effects of increased consumer incomes in the larger populations of the developing economies in Asia and changes in the global supply chains enabled by Free Trade Agreements. Most notable are the ASEAN Free Trade Agreements (FTAs) and the regionalbilateral trade agreement initiatives being phased-in by the US and the EU. On the part of Asian economies, Philippine exports of intermediate goods achieved incremental growth as consumers in global manufacturing bases began buying export branded finished goods made up of components coming from the Philippines. This is further enhanced by emerging distribution channels being established among Asian countries. On the part of the US and the EU, their phased trade agreement initiatives expand multicountry manufacturing and distribution facilities as global and regional companies set up multiplatform supply chains for branded products and services. This is done to provide for peaks and valleys in the demand of branded products in rapidly emerging consumer markets with varying levels of development and consumption behavior, while at the same time ensuring a steady, predictable and reliable supply of inventories to developed markets. Central to this unfolding reality is China. China as a major manufacturing base and consumer market is moving up the value chain. As it does, it sustains its rapid economic growth creating large numbers of Chinese consumers with high disposable incomes and rapid consumption behavior for quality branded products. Moving up the chain increases the cost of manufacturing in China while evolving new types of production processes that accrue to higher economic value for Chinese companies. This is resulting to a shift in the global chains characterized by the remigration of certain manufacturing facilities to alternative locations in Asia. Key considerations to the re-migration are speed-to-market and cost-effectiveness rather than manufacturing costs alone. Prime candidates for this re-migration are strategically located countries which can costeffectively access as many of the developed and developing mass consumer markets possible. Countries that at the same time possess a deep pool of skilled and trainable workers, professional managers and knowledge employees. Countries like the Philippines. This explains the shift of our exports to Asia. At the same time, similar changes are taking place in similarly situated countries and regions around the world explaining the growth of our

19

PEDP 2011-2013 for LIMITED CIRCULATION only exports to the Middle East and the ANZ region; and the spawning of our business in greater India, Brazil, South America and even Africa. This also partly explains the sense of urgency among many countries to engage in free trade agreements, be it bilateral or multilateral. And this suggests expectations in the near future. In terms of international trade and investments, India is expected to become like China in relation to the rest of the world. Brazil is viewed to become like China in relation to the Americas and Europe. The Middle East appears to have begun behaving like China in relation to Africa and Central Asia. Australia and New Zealand have likewise begun to behave like China in relation to China, India and Brazil. And Russia is anticipated to influence supply chains and global consumer marketing following the same pattern when its time comes. Japan can only be a contributing factor to the re-balancing of resources and supply chains resulting to export opportunities. Given Japans inherent capabilities and current international business model, its recovery efforts can lead to an expansion of export markets. Therefore, the key elements defining opportunities in this new world order are: a) supply and value chain management; b) international trade negotiations; and c) innovations in finished goods marketing.

20

PEDP 2011-2013 for LIMITED CIRCULATION only

VII. CORE STRATEGIES


In the context of new realities where global supply chain management, international negotiations and innovation in finished goods marketing are the strategic opportunities, the PEDP defines its core strategies applicable to all sectors. A. Product Strategies: 1. Move up the Value Chain Move up the value chain according to the status of the sector. Building value-added by moving up the value chain will bring immediate incremental revenues while new sectors are being cultivated. The key is to secure foreign and local investments to enable sectors to move up the value chain considering that many of the supply chain attributes of our export products and services are already present in-country. Additionally, the strategic location of the Philippines makes it an ideal site to access large consumer markets like China, Japan, Korea, Indonesia and the rest of ASEAN. 2. Capture Higher-value Processes in the Global Supply Chain Sell Filipino supply and value chain participation as a quality and cost-effective component to finished goods and services. This is in particular reference to export sectors whose global supply chain is characterized by multi-country manufacturing such as electronics, garments, automotives, and shipbuilding. Participation in value chain endeavors to capture as many of the chain components possible. Moving up the value chain develops chain components that derive the highest value. The idea is for the Philippines to achieve both through foreign and local investments and innovation. 3. Develop Product Linkages for Organic, Natural and Certification-enabled Products Develop organic and natural product linkages in tourism services and expand product applications. The abundant natural resources and human capital in the Philippines make it ideal for ONPs to prosper given what is arguably the largest rapidly growing product and service category in the world. The first step is to leverage tourism as a natural distribution channel for existing products and services. Subsequently, establish research centers to expand ONP applications and set up manufacturing facilities through local and foreign investments motivated by the growth in Philippine NOP in-country capabilities. B. Market Strategies: 1. Maximize Benefits of Free-Trade-Agreements (FTAs) Maximize FTA gains and engage the US and EU according to mutually acceptable modalities. Maximizing existing FTAs means launching information campaigns that are broad-based and meaningful. A broad-based campaign means a nationwide effort covering as many business sectors possible, especially SMEs. Meaningfulness does not only refer to informing the exporting community about tariff schedules and other FTA features. It also refers to establishing and improving mechanisms that will 21

PEDP 2011-2013 for LIMITED CIRCULATION only motivate the private sector to utilize FTAs in their business. These are Information Help-Desks, Document Facilitation, Interactive Websites and similar others. 2. Target High-Growth Emerging Markets Emerging markets with high economic growth for finished goods exports include China, India and ASEAN for direct exports. The faster growth of developing economies is creating large consumer segments with high disposable incomes. Philippine export products and services should focus on these consumer groups not only because of their new-found capability to purchase, but more importantly, because it is at this emerging stage that consumers develop product and brand loyalty through trial usage. Reaching these consumers ahead of other brands as they explore their purchasing power establishes a strong franchise for the Philippines. Philippine exports of intermediate goods will realize incremental sales as the brands these sectors supply will promote themselves aggressively in these emerging markets. The indicated action is to have our finished goods export sector move in this direction as well through promotions and selling missions. Brazil and Russia are viable target markets for Philippine finished goods through distribution channels in strategic locations including those in the Middle East and EU. The Philippines must also engage in pre-emptive market intelligence activities to identify opportunities and establish presence in other big emerging markets like South Africa and Turkey and in pre-emerging markets, specifically those highgrowth areas and cities in China (CHAMPS*). 3. Attract the Migration of Supply Chain Nodes to the Philippines Capture export-oriented FDIs from China, Malaysia and Singapore, as these economies move up the value chain. Also, target Japan, Korea, ANZ, US, and EU as these industrialized nations continue to re-balance the supply chains of their products and services to pursue opportunities in emerging markets and respond to recovering mature markets. Equally, the recovery of mature markets and the rapid growth of emerging markets with large consumer populations are compelling developed exporting nations (Japan, Korea, ANZ, US, EU) to activate more multi-platform supply chains to address the different consumption needs of emerging and mature markets. The result is a remigration of supply-chain components from these locations to strategic points in the chain.

C. Promotions Strategies: 1. Undertake Focused Promotions with Emphasis on Precision Rather than Profusion Focus on precision (quality) rather than profusion (quantity) in conducting promotions. Identify and participate in select high-impact, high-level trade events. On-premise traffic of consumers and companies in these events must be consistent with target audience. Equal emphasis must be given to investments-capture and tourism promotion given the character and needs of the overall export portfolio. This will drive investments in 22

PEDP 2011-2013 for LIMITED CIRCULATION only research and development and in-country capacity for merchandise and services exports. Tourism is a cost-effective awareness and trial-usage channel for Philippine exports while generating significant revenues. Integrating these elements in out-bound trade events maximizes results. Market selection should also be consistent with product and market strategies. An additional consideration in selecting geographical markets is the presence of existing or unfolding free trade agreements. 2. Launch More High-Impact and High-Level In-Bound Fairs and Missions Linked with Tourism Opportunities Strengthen existing Philippine trade events and develop new and innovative ones focusing on the total Philippine experience. Philippine Experience refers to the emotional aspect of the encounter with target consumers. The tactile elements of consumer-contact, like features and benefits of products and services, are available to consumers virtually anywhere around the world. But an experience, the emotional high achieved through consumer contact, can be made unique and worth reexperiencing again and again. Similar to out-bound missions, in-country events must integrate investment, tourism and merchandise trade missions. Frequency and timing of these integrated activities can be aligned with key tourism occasions year-round. In the case of in-country events, the more of these integrated promotions are launched, the broader the base for Philippine exposure and the higher the probability of investments-capture and merchandise/services exports. 3. Embark on a Comprehensive and Unified Country Branding It is time to brand the Philippines and launch thematic sectoral events and abovethe-line promotions. Consultations must be started immediately to arrive at the brand essence, brand values and brand features necessary to define the Philippines brand name and promise. From there, an international campaign will immediately follow. Sectoral generic branding, or The Philippines must continue to be promoted attaching the strong positive attributes of each sector as the case may apply in the event or promotion channel. A key feature in the branding process is to include a brand device (or sub-label) from a government export-standards agency certifying product integrity and performance.

VIII. GOVERNANCE: KEY TO IMPLEMENTATION


To be able to implement the strategies of the PEDP and consequently achieve its targets, government policies and promotional assistance enabling exports are necessary. A. Immediate: Executive Action 1. The President, as Chair of the EDC, should preside over the Quarterly EDC meetings. This would also ensure Cabinet-level participation in the Council so that immediate policy action is taken on export development issues. 2. The DTI shall utilize Honorary Trade Representatives in target export markets as soon as may be appropriate. The necessary deployment plan in context of the FTSC operations shall be designed and implemented accordingly by the DTI. B. Mid-Term: Legislative Agenda 1. Prioritize amendment of the Export Development Act with emphasis on provisions pertaining to export financial assistance, privatization of promotional agencies, and the enforcement authority of the Council. 2. Passage of the Customs Modernization and Tariff Bill to address the issue of simplification of procedures and the cost of doing business. C. Institutionalize a Funding Source for Export Development and Promotion 1. To be able to execute the strategies of the PEDP, financial resources must continuously be made available to fund promotional activities. On the part of government agencies, the plan is to consolidate the promotion budgets of the DOT, DA, DTI, BOI, and the economic zones through inter-agency coordination of out-bound missions and in-bound activities 2. Establish a National Export Development and Competitiveness Fund (NEDAC Fund) to be used in launching integrated promotional efforts, SME financial assistance and continuous training for workers in the exporting community. The fund shall initially come from the Office of the President and subsequently included in the annual DTI Budget from the General Appropriations Act. D. Build on the Strengths of the Export Development Council The solution to all the challenges in the implementation of this Plan is in the mechanism established in the Export Development Act. That mechanism is the Export Development Council. The Council is designed to resolve export development issues through the representation of export sectors and the involvement of Cabinet Secretaries and The President. Policy issues requiring extensive study and consultation are addressed through the networking committees while situations requiring immediate actions are managed by the Council itself. 1. Revitalize the networking committees to strengthen presence in the countryside and so that relevant issues are thoroughly evaluated and recommendations carefully assessed before being presented for resolution to the Council. Activate new committees as appropriate to address all Key Export Sectors. 24

PEDP 2011-2013 for LIMITED CIRCULATION only

2. Link with other business councils to strengthen and unify advocacies. 3. Develop and implement an anti-corruption mechanism in the EDC and its networking committees. Utilizing appropriate measures to protect the citizenry, this mechanism shall enable sources to identify individuals, groups and structural environments engaged in corruption to enable government to correct situations and prosecute where necessary. 4. Ensure appropriate representation of the service sector in the EDC particularly BPO to enable this rapidly growing sector to contribute to continuous development of comprehensive export policies. This is particularly in reference to worker welfare which is a key factor to export competitiveness in services. 5. Strengthen the EDC Secretariat by increasing the number of technical staff necessary to fulfill all secretariat functions. Engage the staff in Continuous Education and Training (CET) on convener management.

The President as Export Champion

Finally, the exporting community believes that the key to the success of Philippine exports is The President of the Philippines. The PEDP reaffirms The President as the champion of Philippine exports. Through his inspired and inspiring leadership, the EDC partnership will be strengthened, motivated and empowered to level-up exports through 2013 and double-up by 2016. -oOo-

Turkeys push to qualify as an EU candidate encouraged the country to undertake major reforms to strengthen its democracy and economy. Turkey is emerging from the global crisis in relatively good shape. Imports and exports are on the rise. However, Turkey continues to rely on the EU as destination of 45% of its exports, which makes it vulnerable to the effects of the euro crisis. Nevertheless, growing domestic consumption contributed to the 4% average growth in imports in the last five years (2006-2010). Turkey is the 20th importer in the world, but the Philippines share in Turkeys annual imports is only around 0.03%.

Philippine Export Development Plan 2011-2013

Philippine Export Development Plan 2011-2013

THE NATIONAL EXPORT DEVELOPMENT AND COMPETITIVENESS FUND

BACKGROUND: Funding assistance for export development is premised on business realities. Every type of business has to invest in the marketplace to be able to capture shares. Generally, most businesses need to invest even more in order to increase their share of the market. Although companies that have attained critical mass can maintain and grow profits while spending significant amounts on market promotions, national export development is configured differently and needs government assistance in addition to private-sector market investments. The reason is that Philippine exports consist of a wide range of business activities- from supply chain components to finished goods and services of varying gross profit margins constantly affected by foreign exchange fluctuations and competitive action. The amounts necessary to promote, innovate and build in-country capacity in order to achieve significant export growth cannot be wholly generated much less sustained by the margins structure of the exporting community. Furthermore, export manufacturing facilities of intermediate goods are largely a component of multinational, multi-country supply chains where Philippine participation is pre-determined by longterm supply chain strategies. Moving up this chain becomes an in-country initiative dependent on Philippine capacity developed by local and foreign investments typically motivated by government promotion programs. These are the fundamental reasons why the Export Development Act provided for promotion funding for exports. As contained in Section 14 of the Act, the EDC through the DTI shall develop an export promotion privatization program. Section 14 further provides that until funding is secured from the export promotion privatization program, the national government shall appropriate such sums as may be necessary to the Council for export promotion and information. Because of differences with Congress pertaining to appropriations for government promotional functions affected by the EDAs export promotion privatization program, implementation of this program was stalled. Meanwhile, from 1999 to 2004 (a period covering two PEDP three-year cycles), export promotion assistance was mainly drawn from the activities of the Bureau of Export Trade Promotion (BETP), the Center for International Trade Exhibitions and Missions (CITEM), the Foreign Trade Service Corps (FTSC), the Philippine Trade Training Center (PTTC), the Product Development and Design Center of the Philippines (PDDCP), the Garments and Textile Export Board (GTEB), the Philippine International Trading Corporation (PITC) and the Board of Investments (BOI- for investment promotion). While this arrangement was helpful at the time, the evolving competition in a fast-paced global export environment and challenging economic conditions in mature and emerging export markets called for higher levels of funding support beyond the budgets appropriated to these various government export promotion agencies with the exception of the GTEB.1 Responding to competitive pressures from China and other rapidly developing exporting countries in ASEAN and Eastern Europe coupled with the difficulties arising from an appreciating peso and the effects of the global financial crisis, an Export Promotion Fund managed by the EDC and DTI was established. In 2005, the BSP granted the EDC a Php 10.5 million fund. In 2007, the BSP, DTI, DBM, NEDA and PHILEXPORT pooled together a Php 280 million Export Promotion Fund (EPF). In

The GTEB was deactivated at the end of the sectors quota regime in 2004. Its residual funds were remitted to the National Treasury for draw-down by the DTIs Garments and Textile Industry Development Office [GTIDO] under the BOI, following the Administrative Codes provisions on the disposition of residual corporate funds.

81

Philippine Export Development Plan 2011-2013 2009, a Php 200 million grant was drawn from the Economic Stimulus Fund of the Office of the President for an Export Support Fund (ESF) initially approved at Php 1 billion. These funds enabled Philippine exports to grow by thirty-eight percent (+38%) for the 2005-2007 PEDP period vs. the prior three years. More significantly, the funding support arrested export decline to only two percent (-2%) in 2008 and seventeen percent (-17%) in 2009 when the rest of the exporting world suffered more than twenty percent reduction (-20%) because of the global financial crisis. Eventually, use of these support funds enabled Philippine exports to recover with a thirty-four percent (+34%) growth in merchandise and twenty-one percent (21%) growth in services in 2010. FUND SOURCE: The source of the fund will initially come from the Office of the President (OP) amounting to P100 million per year starting 2011 until it is subsequently included in the budget of the DTI. The DBM will facilitate transfer of the initial funds from the OP to a DTI line budget item. MANAGEMENT OF THE FUND: The EDC and DTI shall manage and deploy the fund for promotional and capacity-building assistance programs for exporters. Through a strengthened EDC Secretariat, improvements on earlier utilization mechanism shall be developed and implemented.
