Harmonized Statistics on Overseas Filipinos E-mail
Friday, 19 December 2008
The data for these statistics come from the various government agencies that regularly produce administrative and survey data, and that are all part of the country’s international migration bureaucracy (data on overseas Filipinos are presented in a separate section).

Part 1 contains six major sub-parts: 1) Temporary migrants; 2) Permanent migrants; 3) Undocumented or Irregular migrants; 4) Migrant households; 5) Remittances; and 6) Overseas migration and development outcomes.

The available datasets on temporary migrants, permanent migrants, undocumented or irregular migrants, and migrant households are then presented according to an outline that is contained in the operational framework of this Almanac. Within each sub-part, data on temporary/permanent/undocumented migrants and migrant households are presented under “population outcomes,” “development processes,” and “development outcomes.”

Variables under “population outcomes” include: a) population size; b) age; c) sex structure or gender; d) civil status; e) spatial distribution in the Philippines; and f) spatial distribution overseas. Variables under “development processes” usually cover employment characteristics, as well as some consumption of goods and services. Lastly, variables under “development outcomes” cover educational attainment, employment dynamics, and income.

While migrant households located in the Philippines are not the ones migrating overseas, voluminous datasets prompted about them the separate presentation of migrant households data according to this Almanac’s operational framework.

Meanwhile, datasets on remittances were sub-divided into three parts: a) remittance volumes; b) remitters; and c) remittance recipients.

And given the datasets contained in the first five sub-parts under Part 1, the Institute also packaged some tables under the theme “overseas migration and development outcomes.” These datasets provide a preliminary look at some of the positive and negative consequences of Filipinos’ international migration. The datasets for this sub-part are sub-divided into: a) overseas migration and demography; b) overseas migration and domestic employment; and c) overseas migration, poverty, and income. Users of this Almanac are also encouraged to develop their own cross-tabulations on the socio-economic consequences of Filipinos’ international migration.
