                    [Summary] => The economy is outpacing the country’s population growth rate and is even "doing a lot better than many other countries in the region," President Arroyo said Friday night.


Fears have been mounting that the country’s growing population could scuttle the Arroyo administration’s 10-point program aimed at easing the wrenching poverty in the country that has forced one of every 10 Filipinos to seek work abroad.


"Actually, even during these hard times we have had, our economic growth is still higher than our population growth," Mrs. Arroyo, a US-educated economist, said in a forum after a speech at the Manila Overseas Press Club’s "President’s Night" Friday.
