Aquino leaves for seven-day visit to the UK, US

President Benigno S. Aquino III left for a seven-day visit to the United Kingdom of Great Britain and the United States of America Monday afternoon hoping the trips could strengthen economic and bilateral relations with those countries.
The President's first stop will be the UK to meet Prime Minister David Cameron, British investors and the Filipino community in that country. The President noted the importance of the visit saying the UK and the Philippines have been enjoying strong economic relations in the past several years.

From London, the President will fly to the US to meet President Barack Obama.

President Aquino said he will personally thanked Prime Minister David Cameron when they meet in London for the UK's contributions to the growth of the Philippine economy.

The UK is also the country's partner in strengthening political cooperation as well as maintaining peace and security, the President said.

"Sa katunayan, kabalikat natin ang United Kingdom sa pagpapataas ng antas ng kakayahan ng ating kapulisan at pagbuwag sa pandaigdigang pamamagitan ng Regional Counter Terrorism Investigations Management Course," he said in his departure speech at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport Terminal 2.

"Aktibo rin silang nakikibahagi sa International Contact Group upang higit pang mapatatag ang usapang pangkapayapaan sa Mindanao. Tumulong din ang UK sa matagumpay na pagtataguyod at implementasyon ng Citizen's Charter sa ilang LGU's, na bahagi ng ating Anti-Red Tape Act na naglalayong matiyak na malinaw at matapat ang mga transaksyong nangyayari sa pamahalaan," he added.

In the business front, the chief executive said he will join business meetings with the leading British and European investors while in London. He said he will also witness the signing of business deals with Shell, Gaz Asia and Aboitiz, Rolls Royce and Cebu Pacific.

Those comapnies could contribute a lot to the growth of the Philippine economy particularly in areas of information technology and business process outsourcing, renewable energy, electronics, as well as public-private partnership (PPP) projects.

Thank you, hindi ko alam na si BongBong ay effective at mukhang bine-better ang life ng Filipinos. Si Pres. Aquino naman, hindi ba recently lang siya naging president? Para sa akin (akin lang naman), lagi kong binibigyan ng chance at hopeful na magaling at effective ang president. Feeling ko, naitanim na sa atin mga Filipinos na not to trust politicians dahil sa history from the Marcoses forward. Pero I watched yung briefing ni Pres. Aquino sa Fil. Community sa UK, mukhang he will be good..

[j12torts]

hindi ibig sabihin magaling mag speech at malalim ang tagalog ibig sabihin very competent siya. maraming magaling magspeech pero pag dating sa performance at resulta, wala.

tignan mo lang nung nagawa nya nung congressman pa sya anong nagawa niya compared kay Bong Bong Marcos sa Ilocos...wala siyang nagawa.

samantala ang Ilocos ngayon may wind power kaya medyo mura ang kuryente nila duon at malago ang tourism nila duon

[JAYJAYLAZ]

Wow, ang galing niyang mag speech. Hindi niya binabasa? I wonder kung minemorize niya? Also, ang lalim ng tagalog hindi ko maintindihan grabe.
