Government development plans although translated into concrete development strategies, policies, and programmes, lack however an understanding of the perceptions and needs of those who are meant to benefit from these efforts. In examining the Philippine Government' s efforts to promote cottage industries and the experiences of the producers and entrepreneurs, this paper illustrates the perceptual gap that exists between these two groups. On the one hand, the government assumes that its programmes provide more effective solutions to problems of rural unemployment and development; on the other, because of limited channels and ability to articulate their needs, producers and entrepreneurs are unable to express their critiques of these programmes
