US Bill Keep Call Centers Act of 2025 threatens PHL BPO industry's 2 million jobs and $30 billion contribution to GDP

It is more fun criticizing

US Bill Threatens BPO - Bilyonaryo

A proposed bill in USA (time for US politicians to shine) is threatening the loss and or decline of the Phl BPO industry that brings in $30 billion in revenues and supports 2 million workers.  Under the proposed act, US will penalize companies:    by not providing loans, grants and benefits if they keep call centers abroad.   

A strict monitoring system will produce a Do not reward list of companies that will surely force many US companies to give up Call Centers in the Philippines.

US market is 70% of the PHL BPO total market.   This will surely hurt the PHL BPO

What does it mean to the Philippine economy to Philippine workers. ?    Many BPO workers wearn as much as $500 -700 /per month exclusive of health care.  Quite a blessing.   

What would happen to the current BPO workers and the industry supporting this:    leasing companies, Cyberzone, buildings housing call centers, housing and rental units for the workers:   vans and angkas transporting BPO workers.  

Philippines a Growing Economy?

Social and political criticisms

                                          

Over the last 3 months, I have seen American consultants roaming around.  Aside from Americans working in call centers.  What jobs are scarce in the US?

I just attended a seminar on marketing and branding.  The lecturer is from Singapore and is doing a lot of business consultancy in the Philippines.  She says that large number of their accounts are in Asia.  And Phil is one of the emerging markets.
