| dc.description.abstract | This study aims to work on the effects of OFW remittances on crimes against property in the Philippines. Other socioeconomic variables such as unemployment rate and gross regional domestic product and crime deterrence factors were included as suggested by related literature. Data on crime was divided into two due to the change in the recording system of the Philippine National Police at 2009. Results showed that OFW remittances and number of OFWs are significant only during 2009-20012 but not in 2001-2008. Thus, as remittances increases, it is becoming more important in the assessment of factors affecting crime. However, the study can be furthered if more time periods can be included wherein the new recording system of PNP was implemented. | |
