Understanding the Overpopulation Problem in the Philippines

🌍 The Philippines is one of the most populated nations in the world.

🏢 Overpopulation in the Philippines has resulted in rising poverty rates, housing crisis, and unemployment.

🌆 Metro Manila is one of the most densely populated regions on earth, with approximately 21,000 people living in just one square kilometer.

💡 The overpopulation problem in the Philippines is caused by people flocking into major cities like Manila.

🌾 If people stayed in rural areas, it would enable a more balanced distribution of the population and create a healthier agricultural economy.

🏙️🚫 Flocking into major cities leads to an increase in poverty, homelessness, and other issues.

👥🛣️🌄 Spreading out the population would help build up provinces and have a positive domino effect on the country's problems.
