The Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP)  said yesterday  its initial inflation projections for the last few months of the year indicated a continuing surge in domestic prices, due primarily to supply-side factors. 


The inflation rate has already gone up to 6.9 percent in August and the mounting demand towards the December holidays was expected to add more pressure on domestic prices.

Analysts, however, said that despite growing exports, the country trails many  of its neighbors in taking advantage of  a global rebound in demand. Thailand’s exports rose 21 percent in April from a year earlier, Malaysia’s by 23.2 percent and Singapore’s by 15.1 percent.
