ARANGKADA WEBSITE REACHES 20,000 HITS

Less than a month after the Arangkada first anniversary Forum, Arangkada Philippines celebrates another milestone – its website www.arangkadaphilippines.com reached over 20,000 hits from over a hundred countries around the world.

Arangkada Philippines 2010: A Business Perspective is a publication sponsored by the Joint Foreign Chambers of Commerce (JFC) containing an extensive menu of recommendations for improving the country’s competitiveness and overall investment climate. Investors believe that making important reforms will stimulate the Seven Big Winner Sectors – Agribusiness, BPO, Creative Industries, Infrastructure, Manufacturing and Logistics, Mining, and Tourism, Medical Travel and Retirement – resulting in more than US$75 billion in new foreign direct investment, around 10 million jobs, and over one trillion pesos in new revenue for the Philippine government in this decade.

In line with a commitment to make Arangkada a living document, the Arangkada Philippines website was launched to serve as an interactive, one-stop portal where global investors can learn about the Philippine economic and business climate, the country’s growth opportunities, and the challenges that it faces.

Arangkada, which has been described by readers as a timely, comprehensive report and a handy reference tool with a wealth of data on business and the economy, is constantly updated through the website. The First Anniversary Assessment Report which details the results of an evaluation done by 50 industry experts of the 471 Arangkada recommendations can be downloaded from the website. Videos, photos, and presentations from the Arangkada Forum, one of 2012’s biggest investor conferences, can also be found in the Multimedia section. Readers can subscribe to the Arangkada RSS and Twitter feeds to receive relevant news about the Seven Big Winner Sectors and the Philippine business environment. Global readers can also access the Arangkada website through www.investphilippines.info.
