Overview: Outsourcing to the Philippines

Apparently, Philippines’
top-notch standing in the global outsourcing
industry has already become prominent amongst the principal sectors in the
business world. The Philippines has been contending with the leader of the
industry, India, and recently made a huge milestone that makes its people
proud.

The
latest report from Tholons
, a US-based strategic consulting
company for global outsourcing and investments, entitled “2013 Top 100
Outsourcing Destinations” showed off how Philippines’ outsourcing industry has
been doing for the last 6 years and how it remarkably performed in the latest
year. Philippines lately received a gigantic achievement of becoming one of the
Top 3 outsourcing destinations around the world. Overtaking the place of Delhi
(India), Manila (Philippines) had a +1 movement from last year’s report. Aside
from Manila, there are more cities in the Philippines which were included in
the Top 100 – Cebu, Davao, Santa Rosa (Laguna), Iloilo, Bacolod and Baguio
City. Among those 7 cities included, 5 increased in rankings which is a great
indicator that outsourcing continues to bloom in the country as years go by. 

Wikipedia and
Outsourcing
Insider
really make brilliant explanations on how Philippines
has become competent in this industry. But considering those things in mind, what
could be the most common reasons why more
and more companies tend to outsource their processes to the Philippines? Below
could be the top 3 reasons:

These reasons above might be true for a lot of
businesses out there but people shouldn’t ignore the fact that everybody still
has different perceptions when it comes to this. Philippines’ outsourcing
companies certainly have more time to prove what they got and why the country
deserves the number one spot.

HoweverPsychology Articles, how do you think this enormous rise affected
the competing countries? How should they overcome such challenges?

Surfing In The Philippines

“;

Surrounded by water on all sides and with virtually 7,107 islands to
choose from, it is no wonder why the Philippines is a prime surfing
destination.
 
Not long ago, Philippine coasts were basically fishing villages
characterized with strips of rugged and untouched beaches covered with
rolling waves roughly sweeping its coastlines.  When surfing started
becoming a part of the daily lives of the fishermen, the practice spread
until more and more young people got into it.  Major Philippine surfing
destinations like Siargao pulled surfers from around the globe, but
there continue to be many undiscovered coasts where there are even
bigger surf as is the case with some Samar surf spots.
 
Surfing Spots in the Philippines
 
The beauty of surfing in the Philippines is that while it is starting to
become popular, there are still pretty much undiscovered surf spots. 
That being said, you will never run out of places to surf in the
Philippines.  Below is a guide to help you plan your next Philippine
surfing trip:
 La Union
This coastal province at the northwest of Luzon has a series of beach
breaks for beginners and occasional challenging point breaks for skilled
surfers. It is one of the closer surfing destinations from Manila and
has a pleasant atmosphere even for beach combing.  Surfs in La Union
have standard line up of 100 m from shore. Waves start at 1 meter and
can swell up to 6 feet. Waves can close out after a strong typhoon.
 Baler Bay, Quezon, Aurora Province
Nestling in the east coast of Aurora Province, Baler is physically
unattached from the rest of the Philippines. To get there takes 6 hours
by four-wheel-drive vehicle, and passing through rough roads in the
mountains down to the bay of Baler.  The ride can be exhausting but
getting there promises a remarkable view of surf all over the stretching
brown beach of the bay.  The town faces the deep blue of the Pacific
Ocean, which gives it the surf that it is renowned for.
Surfing in Aurora is limited by your access to the sites that are
there.  For perfect surf you need not look too far, but should you want
do some exploring, you can hire a banca to help facilitate this.
 Siargao Island, Surigao del Norte
Many surfers have asserted that Siargao has the best and most consistent
waves in the Philippines.  In this regard, this famous surf spot has
made its way into the international surfing circuit.  The highly
recognized surf breaks, commonly known as Cloud 9, are reputed to be the
best breaks in the Philippines and all over Asia.  Due to the island’s
thriving development, more resorts have sprung up and surfers from all
over the world have become a common sight.
 
The Siargao International Surfing Competition happens every year in
October.Zambales
Zambales is a province on the west coast of Luzon north of Manila. 
Zambales is part of the Central Luzon Region or Region 3.  The
opportunities for surfing in Zambales are enormous.  The entire
coastline offers adventurous surfers many possible surfing breaks.
 Catanduanes
Its strategic location in the course of Pacific typhoons give
Catanduanes the crashing waves that surf enthusiasts the world over
flock to, including the famous Majestic wave that crashes the shores of
the island from the depths of the Pacific Ocean.  This break on to an
offshore reef 200m from Puraran Bay is known to be unpredictable but
once present, it kicks off one of the fastest, right-handed and the
hollowest wave of more than 6 ft.  Beginners should be aware that this
wave can sweep you closer to the reef.  Thus be always prepared to
experience cuts and scratches.
 
Best Times to Go
 
Philippine surfing is both temperamental and seasonal, so it is
important to know the best time to come surf or you may be
disappointed.  Conditions vary depending on location.  In general, the
best time would be from July to November, when surfing competitions
across the archipelago are mostly held.
 
With these in mind, you can choose to surf the east coast or the west
coast.  The east coast probably gets the better surf.Source: Free Articles from ArticlesFactory.com
