Ambassador Cortes expressed enthusiasm for the next steps in sharing the Philippines' expertise in tourism management and sustainable practices, which could support Angola's growing interest in eco-tourism.
The Chamber provided updates on their recent engagements with the Angolan and Philippine business communities, including plans for two upcoming webinars in 2025 that will connect Filipino and Angolan enterprises. Ambassador Cortes confirmed his participation and underscored the importance of these virtual sessions in expanding bilateral business relations and fostering direct communication between key stakeholders.
The meeting concluded with shared optimism for advancing these strategic economic initiatives and continuing to build a robust partnership based on shared goals and mutual respect.
