Sinelyuhan ng Pilipinas at Japan ang kabuuang 26 business agreements at letters of intent na nagkakahalaga ng US$ 5.511 o mahigit P288 bilyon sa gitna ng working visit ni Pangulong Rodrigo Duterte sa Tokyo.
Ayon kay Trade Sec. Ramon Lopez, ang business deals ay magreresulta sa 82,737 na mga trabaho para sa Pilipinas.
Samantala, sa hiwalay na talumpati ay sinabi ng Pangulo na papatayin niya ang anumang problema gaya ng katiwalian na makakaapekto sa pagnenegosyo ng mga Hapon sa Pilipinas.
“I just assure you that during my time I said there will be no corruption. And every Japanese investor in my country however small or however big, I can assure you that if there’s any complaint regarding hindrances, obstruction or outright corruption, let me know,” ani Duterte.
Pwede anyang kontakin ng nagrereklamong Japanese businessman ang sinumang gabinete para ipaalam ang kanilang problema sa kurapsyon.
“I will give you at any hour of the day or night you can contact any of the Cabinet members or your Filipino lawyers or Filipino workers, and you can ask an audience with me in 24 hours and I will talk to you and just let me know what your problem is and we will kill that problem,” dagdag ng Pangulo.
