The National Statistical Coordination Board Regional Division VIII releases the 2011 Regional Social and Economic Trends (RSET) for Eastern Visayas.  This is in line with our commitment to disseminate relevant information generated by the Philippine Statistical System (PSS) to address the demand for more adequate and diversified statistics for development planning at the regional and local level.

The RSET contains annual time series data on the region’s social and economic environment.  It features provincial, city and municipal disaggregation of statistics, whenever available.  The 2011 edition features the new series of the Official Poverty Statistics following refinements in poverty estimation methodology.  This also includes new tables on rainfall and Internal Revenue Allotment.

The 2011 RSET is now available in CD-ROM format.  For inquiries and subscription, visit or call the National Statistical Information Center (NSIC), G/F Calzita Building, 143 P. Zamora Street, Tacloban City, at telephone numbered 325-7508 or email us at nscbru8@yahoo.com.
