All about Philies

Welcome to the Philippines! The third largest English speaking country in the world. A land rich in culture, natural resources, and of course hospitable people.

With a population of  more than 100 million, the Philippines has been one of the largest outsourcing countries for the past 7 years, since it started in the late 90's. This is attributed to its primary strengths including strong English speaking skills, awareness of Western business culture, competitive labor rates, high literacy and a stable telecommunications infrastructure.
