Dahil yun sa low in demand dito, kasi ang pilipino iba ang gustong bilhin (Toyota) 15k nga lang average per year na ginagawa na kotse (Honda) dito sa pinas and last year 8k lang nagawa nila. Kung sa UK nga 250k annualy then last year 160k na lang at magsasara na din sila doon sa UK.

Nakatatak na kasi sa isip ng mga ibang pinoy basta toyota iyan ang pinaka matibay na sasakyan.
Buti pa sa Honda UK may dalawang taon pa silang natitira para gumawa ng sasakyan nila.

totoo yan kasi may nakwentuhan ako dati na meron siyang vios first car niya. Nung lumabas lang yung 2nd gen vios ayaw niya yung itsura kaya nag honda city siya pero yun nga ang lakas ng consumo sa gas. Kaya binenta niya na lang ang honda city niya at ang pinalit niya eh toyota vios na 3rd gen. Piyesa din ng honda mahal.

Pero kung speed sa usapan eh mabilis ang honda, maganda pa i-customize. Lalo na yung honda accord nila, Nakuw saksakan ng takaw sa gas.

Higher excise under the Duterte administration’s tax reform program, which coincided with high inflation rates, had hurt demand for new vehicles. In 2018, vehicle sales fell by 16 percent to 357,410 cars, the worst full-year decline since the financial crisis in 1998, Campi data showed.

Honda, which used to make 120 cars every day, now makes only 18. Over the years, the work force had shrunk to around 380 workers, barely a shadow of the company’s glory days.

In the age of globalization, countries not simply compete with other countries, but also company subsidiaries in the same production network. Honda’s plant in the Philippines competes with its plant in Thailand.

Dahil sa train law. Pati na rin sa gastos sa kuryente. And the 1987 constitution. Foreign ownership of land dito.
Buti pa sa Thailand. Napakaganda ng gobyerno nila.

There is a combination of factors that make up that penalty, and it's best to compare how manufacturing in the Philippines differs greatly from the Detroit of Asia: Thailand.
The first is the infrastructure. They built things to support the economy, specifically exports. They built more infrastructure compared to us over the decades. The airports are bigger. There are more rail lines. There are more highways. There are more ports, and more efficient at that. The late King Rama IX oversaw many of these projects during his tenure, and he pushed for them.

Their operations and setup costs are lower. Corporate taxes are lower. The major parts suppliers already set up shop there, much more than ours, so there's no need to import. Minimum wages are slightly lower too. The companies (foreign as they may be) can actually own the land they put their factories on. Power costs are also reportedly lower; they have new power stations on the way, while we spent 30 years repaying an unused nuclear power station.

The government's processes are also reportedly easier to deal with. Visas are easier. Travel is easier. Permits are supposedly easier to process. Policies are geared to make it attractive for foreign investment, particularly in job-generating enterprises. And to think they had a military junta in charge of the government for a while.
