Philippines is Soon to be a Top BPO Destination

In the AHIMA, a quote says that, "The reason that we decided for a consortium is to show large companies based in the U.S. that the Philippines has the ability to handle their accounts, and has enough headroom for future requirements" said Raoul Sia, President of Rapid Data. As this will mean bigger opportunities for the Philippine job market and the Philippine BPO professionals this also hopes to balloon up the ever growing medical transcription outsourcing industry this coming 2008. The growth in this specific industry will also put the Philippines as one of the top destinations for both BPO (business process outsourcing) and KPO (knowledge process outsourcing) at the same time this coming year. Furthermore, this specific event expects the country to topple its greatest rival in the BPO and KPO industry which is India.
