Entrepreneurial Medium and Small Scale Industry
The Province's medium and small-scale industries
are in processing, manufacturing, fabricating and making activities.
Some of the materials needed in these industries are coming from
Manila and Cebu while others are acquired locally. (Table 5-11)
The value of investment of the registered businesses
is increasing as well as the generated employment, however the value
of investment in the priority areas or micro credit reduced to the
increasing loan interest rates of the private and government financial
institutions.
