This country paper will not dwell on methodologies and results of the PTSA, as these have been documented.5 Instead, it will focus on an assessment of what we have done compared to what
we need, in line with Theme 3 of this Workshop. . The paper will also discuss some matters related to the other workshop themes, as a way of sharing with the other participants of the workshop some aspects of the development of the TSA, which may be unique to the Philippine experience.
