The paper analyzes the possible effects of tariff reduction in the 1990s on unemployment, household income and household welfare using a computable general equilibrium model calibrated to the 1994 social accounting matrix. The series of simulation experiments indicate that tariff reduction is...

This paper examines the effects of the reduction in tariff rates in the Philippines from 1994 to 2000 on unemployment, distribution and poverty using a CGE-microsimulation approach wherein the representative household assumption in the traditional CGE modeling is replaced with individual...

The paper employs an integrated CGE-microsimulation approach to analyze the possible effects of the Philippine-Japan bilateral agreements on unemployment, income distribution and poverty. The results indicate contraction in agriculture but expansion in industry, particular in the nonfood...
