At the rate at which knowledge is
growing, by the time the child born today
graduates from college, the amount of
knowledge in the world will be four times
as great. By the time the same child is 50
years old, it will be 32 times as great and 97
percent of everything known in the world
will have been learned since the time he
was born (Toffler, 1980).

3. SOURCES OF POWER:
knowledge, wealth, and violence the
highest quality of which results from the
application of knowledge. A knowledge-based
society has an advantage. Such society rests on
thinking, creativity and inventiveness. Science
and technology will enable education to cope
and respond to the demands of the changing
world.

18. 2) Ten years ago, at least 30 developed
countries were considered and believed to
account for less than 30% of the world
current population. These countries account
for approximately 90% of the world’s
income, financial reserves, and steel
production, and 95% of the world’s scientific
and technological production

19. 3)Approximately 83% of the world’s total income is
produced in economically developed regions
which have less than 1/3 of the world’s population.
The third world on the other hand where at least
70% of the third world resides, subsist on less than
20% of the global income. The collective per capita
income of underdeveloped regions average less
than ¼ of the per capita income of rich countries –

 The five-year period from 2016-21 is called K-12
transition
 It is considered a once-in-a generation window of
opportunity to reform the country’s educational
landscape.

with ASEAN neighbors with 48% of faculty with MS
degrees and 20% with PhDs and hundred of degree
programs all over the country meeting international
standards.

46. ASEAN
2015

48. ASEAN Blueprint
was adopted in
2007
Its vision is to establish by 2015 a highly
competitive single market and
production base for its ten members
economies, that promotes their
equitable economic development and
facilitate their integration with global
community

49. 1. Free flow of goods by reducing or eliminating import
tariffs, facilitating trades and enhancing key trade
agreements already in place
2. Free flow of services across member-countries
particularly business and professional services,
construction, distribution, education, environmental
services, health care maritime transport,
telecommunication and tourism
3. Free flow of investments by consolidating various
investments agreements already in place into the ASEAN
Comprehensive investment agreement

50. 4. Freer flow of capital by moving faster toward an
integrated Asean capital market and by expanding a
regional foreign exchange reserve pool now amounting to
$240 B established to deal with financial crisis
5. Freer flow of skilled labor through mutual recognition,
agreement initially on seven professions namely: medical,
dental, nursing, accountancy, engineering and
architectural services and surveying
6. Strengthened competition policy and consumer
protection, trans-ASEAN infrastructure development and
small and medium enterprise development

51. 1. Overall impact will be positive
2. Some economies stand to gain
more than the other
3. Some economies maybe hurt
4. There will be winners and
losers
5. Need for winners to
compensate the losers through
government tax and creative
transfer scheme

52. 1. Identify what type of goods,
services and professionals we
are already importing from and
exporting to our neighbors
ex: top import from Thailand
vehicles, electronics petroleum
and chemicals while top export
are vehicle parts, electronics.
They are intraindustrial.
2. Our export are complimentary
than competitive.
3. Our labor surplus provides us
an advantage
