                    [Summary] => Seven and a half million Filipinos live abroad. That is about 10 percent of our population. This was because they could not find jobs in their own country. Now they are one of our biggest dollar producers. They send back about eight billion dollars a year. During the month of June, for instance, our dollar supply goes up. This is because our overseas workers send money to enroll their families to school.
