Functional Literacy, Education and Mass Media Survey (FLEMMS) of 2013, 95.6
percent of Filipinos were literate, an improvement from 95.6 percent in 2008. How come
the Philippines has one of the highest number of educated people and yet we remain to be

Can this be traced to poor quality education of Philippine education? Why or why not?
