Pandan 12:34 PM, Nov 07, 2022 

Good day!

I am Ciara Sophia T. Pandan, a 4th year student working on my thesis entitled "Business Performance of DTI assisted Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs): A Time Series Analysis: 1990-2020".  One of the sources I will be utilizing for my thesis is the 2018 SME Competitiveness Survey. With this, I would like to humbly request the firm-level dataset (public use file) from 2010 to 2020, and if ever you have a data from 1990 to 2000 will be a big help. 

Thank you very much and looking forward to your feedback.

Respectfully,
Ciara Sophia T. Pandan
