Socio-Economic Profile

For this year, the information usually gathered for SEP have been described. Available data with 5-year trend have also been presented. Moreover, graphical representations and write-ups are included. It is in this sense that the term “enhanced” has been intertwined in the SEP of the province- this initial effort aims to elevate the usual method of doing SEP so as to guide and help the users, researchers, investors, and decision-makers for easier understanding of data that describe the present sectoral characteristics of the province. This is only the start of systematic innovation of the province’s databank so as to transform this into a more useful reference, the Data Analytics Project.

It is hoped that this document will be of help to all those concerned.
