President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. is back in the Philippines after a working visit to Osaka, Japan, his office said Sunday evening.
Marcos landed in the Philippines at 5:55 p.m. after a four-day visit that included meeting with the Filipino community in Osaka and establishing business commitments with Japanese firms.
“Kanadevia Corporation will partner with Philippine Ecology Systems Corp. on a waste-to-energy project that will help manage waste while generating clean energy. Tsuneishi Group will build the world’s first methanol dual-fueled KAMSARMAX bulk carrier in Cebu, creating jobs and positioning the Philippines as a leader in green shipping,” Marcos said in a social media post.
“We also strengthened our partnership with Japanese tourism leaders to bring more visitors to the Philippines and open more opportunities for our workers. Our meeting with the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency opened new paths for cooperation in space technology to enhance disaster monitoring, support farmers, and strengthen community safety,” he added.
Marcos, who was accompanied by First Lady Louise “Liza” Araneta Marcos, also twice paid a visit to the Philippine Pavilion at the 2025 Expo currently taking place in Osaka
Marcos left on Thursday, with Executive Secretary Lucas Bersamin, Education Secretary Sonny Angara, and Agrarian Reform Secretary Conrado Estrella III appointed as caretakers until his return. — BM, GMA Integrated News
