How judge economic or non-economic activity

Wednesday, November 28th, 2007

To decide whether a particular activity is an economic or a non-economic activity the following points should be considered:

The purpose of the activity is the most important ground for deciding whether an activity is economic or non-economic. The same activity may be economic for one purpose and non-economic for another purpose. The chief purpose of an economic activity is to generate income. For example when a lady cooks food for monetary gain it is an economic activity. But if the amen lady cooks food for hers family it is a non economic activity.

when the work done is measurable in terms of money it is an economic activity. For example services of a maid servant can be measured in terms of money and is therefore and economic activity. On the other had services of a housewife cannot no measured in terms of money and is therefore a no economic activity.

In the normal course of life a person desires to earn money in order to satisfy his wants. He seeks to obtain maximum return from his efforts. But work done for emotional reasons is non-economic activity. For example a businessman wants to produce goods at the lowest possible cost to make maximum profit. On the other hand a person engaged in religious or social service is willing to spend bother his money and time.

Both economic and non-economic activities must be legal. Activities which are illegal though resulting in economic gain for example smuggling black-marketing robbery and others cannot bane called economic activities. Only those human activities can be called economic activities which are performed in accordance with the laws of the land. Even non-economic activities whether social or religious must conform to law.

The Mindanao business agenda

Wednesday, November 7th, 2007

The 12-point resolution that the business sector unanimously approved during the recently concluded Mindanao Business Conference in General Santos City indicates that the sector will always be an active partner of the government in developing Mindanao.

ICT as development agent

Truly believing that information and communications technology (ICT) is a catalyst for development, the business sector believes that it is an essential part of the overall roadmap for the island and that sufficient infrastructure facilities must be laid out for connectivity to be enhanced.

In this modern world, connectivity is as important as physical infrastructure because it allows real time interaction between and among players of a certain sector and even between the producer and the market. It has tremendously shrunk the world to just about a line between two people, even if the distance is between the north and south poles.

The cities of Davao, General Santos, Cagayan and Zamboanga are all poised to become the ICT hubs of Mindanao. These are the areas where connectivity is present along with a rich source of human capital to support ICT developments.

Power, power

Another major issue that the business sector raised during the event was finding ways to ensure sufficient and steady power supply in Mindanao.

Reliable power supply will not only lure more investments to the island, but also sustain growth.

It is not only necessary for government to ensure that power investments are placed in areas where needed most (in case of Mindanao it is in the southern part which consumes nearly one-half of the power produced in the island), it is also very important that power is brought to all the points, particularly to areas where development is slow.

We must remember that reliable power, like infrastructure facilities such as roads, is a key to development.

And according to the analysis of government agencies, like the National Power Corp. and the National Transmission Corp., Mindanao will run out of power within the next three years unless major decisions are made today.

It is good that the national government decided to set up the transmission line that will bring the excess power supply produced in the northern part of Mindanao, particularly from the 200-megawatt coal-fired plant in Tagoloan, Misamis Oriental, to the rest of the Mindanao grid.

But it is also necessary that new power plants are built in areas where they are needed. But this can only be done if investments in the sector get the much-needed support from government policy-makers.

Efficient shipping services

Considering that Mindanao is a known producer of agricultural products, it is also important to find ways to bring these to the markets in easier and cheaper ways. It is currently more expensive to bring goods from Mindanao to Manila than to send them abroad.

This only shows two things, good port handling facilities are absent and that freight rates are also higher in the domestic shipping sector.

There have been so many attempts to persuade both the government and the industry to find common ground, both in reducing shipping rates and improving port handling facilities. These moves must be realized soon. Otherwise, business will continue to languish and development will not take off.
