Beijing assures Manila of full support for PHL projects

Ranking Chinese officials pledged their full support for the immediate implementation of the proposed projects presented by a high-level delegation from Manila for possible financing by Beijing under the Duterte presidency during the latter’s recent two-day mission to China.

Meeting with the Philippine delegation led by Finance Secretary Carlos Dominguez III last January 23, China Commerce Minister Gao Hucheng said the Chinese government “would like to continue to enhance the mutual trust and understanding with our Filipino colleagues in order to further expand and deepen our practical cooperation.”
