Hello! I would like to request data on the per city "male to female ratio of labor force participation" of the Philippines in 2015. If the per city data is not available, I'd like to request the per province data. Incomplete data for some areas is also ok (eg only NCR data available). Only the national data was available online in the “Percentage Distribution of Unemployed Persons by Age Group, Sex and Highest Grade Completed, Philippines: 2015” table of the PSA. I’m grateful for any help po thank you!
