The Philippine government posted a 123.9 billion pesos ($2.25 billion) budget deficit in November, its finance secretary said on Wednesday.
That brought the government’s year-to-date budget deficit to 1.23 trillion pesos, narrower than the 1.33 trillion pesos a year ago, Finance Secretary Benjamin Diokno said in a phone message.
