Ignorant Argument #1: Our rich neighbors Japan, Taiwan, South Korea are bigger than Philippines.

Answer #1:
Japan, Taiwan, South Korea = LEGAL ABORTION

Statistics shows that the rich has less children than the poor.
Rich nations also has less children.

Population Growth Rates:

In Japan = -0.1% (NEGATIVE GROWTH)
Taiwan = 0.19 (ALMOST ZERO)
South Korea = 0.3% (ALMOST ZERO)

[Fights.]

Ignorant Argument #2: Our growth rate is only 3%

Answer #2:
The Philippines’ fertility rate from 2000 to 2010 was 3.4 percent
We have the highest fertility rate than any East Asian country.

Those with higher fertility rates are almost all poor African countries.

[Fights.]

Ignorant Argument #3: Our growth rate is decreasing

Answer #3:
Yes, fertility rate has gone down, but 3% annual average is high.

Take for example the average 4.2% annual increase of the population of Lapu-Lapu City.

From 2000 to 2007 their population increased increased by a whopping 34.8 percent!!!

In just 7 years the City of Lapu Lapu increased tremendously:
2000 = 217,019 persons
2007 = 291,708 persons

100 Million Filipinos increasing by 3% annually is problematic in the decades to come.

Ignorant Argument #4: The Death rate will equalize the Birth rate

Answer #4:

2011 Philippines Birth rate
25.34 births per 1,000 population

2011 Philippines Death rate
5.02 deaths per 1,000 population

For ever 5 Filipino who dies, 25 Filipino is born.

You do the math.

I don't think your math is accurate friend....it says that the death rate is 5 deaths per 1,000.....so how did you get the 5:25 ratio?

But nevertheless, I am appalled by our population growth. Contraceptives should be enforced.
