Filipinos commouters ride a public train in Manila, Philippines, 29 January 2016. The Philippine economy grew at a “respectable” 5.8 per cent in 2015, a slower rate than the previous year and missing the government's annual target, an official said 28 January 2016. Although still expected to be among the fastest in the region, gross domestic product (GDP) growth was slower than the administration's target of 7 per cent to 8 per cent, and down from 2014's expansion of 6.1 per cent.
