At the provincial level, the Provincial Product Accounts (PPA) is a mechanism to measure the economic performance of the province or highly urbanized cities (HUCs) at a given time.   Starting this year, the PSA will annually release the subregional level economic performances following the identified pilot provinces and HUCs. Batangas is one of the pilot areas for PPA compilation in 2022.   For full report, statistical tables, and visuals on the PPA releases, please visit our website at http://rsso04a.psa.gov.ph/batangas or at the PSA Regional Office CALABARZON or PSA Batangas Provincial Statistics Office.       (Sgd.)RAUL MAXIMO B.
