MANILA – President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.'s attendance at the Association of Southeast Asian Nations-Gulf Cooperation Council Summit in Saudi Arabia is expected to be quick but packed with meetings with nation leaders and the Filipino community.
Espiritu said part of the discussions could include the presentation of the Maharlika Fund to Saudi Arabia and its businesses, as well as labor protections of Filipinos and assistance to the development of Bangsamoro. The summit, according to Espiritu, will "set the tone for the forward movement of the cooperation between the ASEAN and GCC," saying that the cooperation has not been as active as compared to other cooperation partners.
