ResumoAbstract President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo announced her decision to run for reelection in 2004. The Philippines suffered a failed coup, divisive politics, and Communist and separatist insurgencies. Economic growth was sluggish, with large fiscal deficits and a deteriorating balance of payments. In foreign affairs, Manila continued its rapprochement with Washington.
