The last time my husband and I were in the Philippines back in 2018, he was shocked at how expensive some grocery items were. After the pandemic, it has become more expensive as friends have been posting online. The minimum wage salary for ordinary workers is about 500 Philippine Pesos or currently at US$ 9.10 == 8 hours of work per day. Other provinces may even get below $9 per 8-hour day of work.
But France is expensive as well! But of course, lots higher salary as well
