FFCCCII pushes for stronger trade, tourism ties
The Federation of Filipino Chinese Chambers of Commerce and Industry, Inc. (FFCCCII) met with the new Chinese Ambassador to the Philippines, Jing Quan, to discuss boosting tourism and business opportunities.
The FFCCCII presented a concrete action plan to Ambassador Jing aimed at addressing the significant trade deficit with China by unlocking new opportunities for Philippine exporters and service providers.
As part of this plan, the FFCCCII pledges to promote stronger bilateral cooperation by expanding Philippine exports to China through business forums and support for participation in major Chinese import fairs.
This engagement aligns with President Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos Jr.'s directive to strengthen international partnerships, particularly with China.
The meeting is timely as the Philippines prepares to host the 2026 ASEAN Summit, during which the FFCCCII will host the 2026 ASEAN Chinese Business Leaders Summit in Manila.
The dialogue emphasized the importance of strong trade ties with China and within ASEAN amidst rising global protectionism.
