Private Sector Strong demand growth seen during the quarter, with the residential segment growing faster than the non-residential segment. Construction employment rose by 13% year-over-year during the first quarter and reached its highest all-time level. Residential segment growth is expected to continue, as residential sites outside of NCR are developed. In addition, higher demand anticipated from Central Luzon and CALABARZON regions tied to upcoming transport infrastructure such as the MRT7 and other South Luzon projects. Non-residential activity to be driven by demand for office spaces from outsourcing and gaming firms, and flexible working spaces. Investments in industrial projects should be supported by infrastructure projects, development of manufacturing hubs, and growth of manufacturing sub-sectors on the back of strong consumption. 1 Source: Philippine Statistics Authority    Approved Building Permits Year-over-year growth based on floor area1 80% 41% 60% 40% 29% 20% 0% -20% -40% 1Q17 2Q17 3Q17 4Q17 1Q18 2Q18 3Q18 4Q18 Non-Residential Residential 5
