MANILA – One out of 10 households in the Philippines does not have enough food on the table and those from the poorest regions starve the most, based on a report by the World Food Program of the United Nations. Among the country's seven poorest regions, Eastern Visayas, Central Mindanao and the Bangsamoro Administrative Region in Muslim Mindanao are the three most 'food insecure.' 'Households that rely on agricultural livelihoods are also significantly more food insecure,' the report said, adding that about a quarter of such households were food insecure compared with only 9 percent among non-agricultural households.
