Idiotic statements are bond to appear on these threads. How can anybody be so naive? A small block house costs a million pesos or more.
The minimum wage laws are here, but few pay any attention to them. A worker in a sugar cane or rice field makes about 150 PhPesos a day. A 50 kilo bag of rice sells for 2000PhP more or less, but most can't buy the bag. Instead, they will go to a little sari-sari store and buy a daily ration or two for 20 or 30 p. They will pluck leaves from plants by the road as "vegetables" and eat dried fish for some protein.
It must be nice to be such a hypocrite when people AROUND THE WORLD have to live like this...
