What are the primary goals of the national economy as outlined in the Constitution?

The primary goals of the national economy include the equitable distribution of opportunities, income, and wealth among citizens. It also targets a sustained increase in the amount of goods and services produced by the nation to benefit the people. Expanding productivity is seen as the key to raising the quality of life for all, especially the underprivileged. These foundational economic targets are firmly established under Article XII, Section 1, 1987 Philippine Constitution to guide the country’s development. “The goals of the national economy are a more equitable distribution of opportunities, income, and wealth; a sustained increase in the amount of goods and services produced by the nation for the benefit of the people; and an expanding productivity as the key to raising the quality of life for all, especially the underprivileged.” 22-Mar-26
