President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. said he sees a promising relationship between the Philippines and China when it comes to agriculture after Beijing displayed what he called a 'solid gesture of friendship' and donated over 20,000 metric tons of fertilizer.
President Ferdinand"Bongbong" Marcos Jr. leads the ceremonial turnover of the 20,000 metric tons of fertilizer donated by China at the National Food Authority warehouse in Valenzuela on Friday, June 16, 2023.
"It’s very, very promising.
"I remember that it was a very good conversation that we had with your President, President Xi, in which he said that agriculture as well is a foundation of the Chinese economy and a necessity for the Chinese government to attend to because at the very basic level, government’s main responsibility is to take care of its people and a large part of that is to provide a good food supply for their people," he recalled.
The Presidential Communications Office said the fertilizers would be distributed to around 160,000 rice and corn farmers in Regions 1, 2, 3, 4A, and in Bicol that will cover 200,000 hectares at two bags per hectare.
