Abstract

In the context of East and South-east Asia, the Philippines is an underachieving country; living standards have not improved much in recent years. (Table 1 provides some relevant data about the Philippines.) In this setting, breast-feeding is especially important for child health and child nutrition as well as child spacing. The Philippines is one of several developing countries having comparable national data on breast-feeding trends for the past several decades.
