Biyaheng Japan si Pangulong Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. sa kalagitnaan ng buwan ng Pebrero.
Ayon sa Pangulo, matapos ang kanyang biyahe sa Davos Switzerland sa Enero 16 hanggang 20, magtutungo naman siya sa Japan.
Ayon sa Pangulo, personal siyang inimbitahan ni Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida na bumisita sa Japan nang magkita sila sa United Nations General Assembly sa New York noong Setyembre.
“When I met with the Prime Minister Kishida in New York and he invited me to come to Japan, I immediately accepted. And so we are now talking to the Japanese authorities as to — the Japanese foreign service as to when would be the most suitable time for me to come. I have a trip to — later this month to Davos and Japan maybe will be the next one after that,” pahayag ng Pangulo.
“I think the tentative date is around the second week of February, right now,” dagdag ng Pangulo.
Agenda aniya ng kanyang pagbisita sa Japan ang naumpisahang pagpupulong sa Amerika ukol sa economic security at iba pa.
“Well, the agenda will be what we — will be a continued discussion of what we started in New York which essentially centers around economic security because with the — Japanese have many concerns about regional security and we are seen, of course, the Philippines is seen as an important part of maintaining that security in partnership with friends and partners like Japan and the other countries around the Indo-Pacific, Asia-Pacific region,” pahayag ng Pangulo.
“And economic security comes from — the term actually is the — it comes from the Japanese Prime Minister when he says that — when we generally talked about things like aid, grants, which is what we usually start off with when we are talking with our Japanese counterparts,” pahayag ng Pangulo.
