Transcript
00:00 President Bongbong Marcos and Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim helped in Malaysia.
00:05 We will be followed by their first live news from Malaysia.
00:10 We have with us, Ivan Mayrina.
00:12 Ivan, good morning.
00:14 Maris, good morning to the Philippines and Malaysia and their assistance in recovering from the pandemic.
00:25 These are just a few of the meetings between President Bongbong Marcos and the King and Prime Minister of Malaysia.
00:32 A state welcome was held by Maris to President Bongbong Marcos and First Lady Liza Araneta Marcos
00:38 on their arrival in Istana Nigara, the National Palace and official residence of the King of Malaysia, before noon yesterday.
00:45 The President was joined by King Al Sultan Abdullah and Queen Aziza,
00:50 Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim and his wife Dr. Wan Aziza, and Cabinet Ministers of Malaysia.
00:55 The President was joined by the Philippine delegation, including his son Congressman Sandro Marcos,
01:00 some of his members and members of his economic team.
01:04 The President also held a military honors and 21-gun salute.
01:08 As usual, during a state visit, there was a ceremonial tree planting,
01:12 a type of evergreen tree, a sign of the visit of President Marcos to the palace.
01:17 At the state banquet being prepared for the Philippine delegation,
01:20 the President said that the most important thing that will build the relationship between the Philippines and Malaysia
01:24 is the cooperation between the two countries for the recovery from the pandemic.
01:29 The President and Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim also held a separate meeting.
01:33 The Prime Minister agreed to help in the recovery from the pandemic
01:37 and in the development of the industry as a halal industry.
01:42 The Philippines will benefit from this, particularly the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region and Muslim in Danau or BARMM,
01:48 which will provide training from Malaysia in the halal industry, Islamic banking and food security.
01:54 In the coming months, the Joint Commission will be established,
01:57 which will be formed by the Philippine and Malaysian government agencies to plan its details
02:01 and the agreements that were formed during the state visit.
02:04 Meanwhile, later at 8 am, the President's business meetings will start
02:10 before he meets with the media to repeat the state visits.
02:16 While the President was in the meeting,
02:18 he assured that the President has tight bonds with government agencies,
02:23 particularly the DSWD and disaster response agencies
02:28 that will address the needs of those affected by the Egyptian earthquake.
02:33 Maris? Ivan, do you have a plan to visit President Bombon Marcos,
02:40 our fellow countrymen affected by the Egyptian earthquake, when he returns to the Philippines today?
02:43 Yes, Maris. Based on the latest information we received,
02:50 the President will arrive in the Philippines tonight.
02:53 Tomorrow, he has a prior engagement in Cebu
02:56 and he is likely to go there on the weekend to those affected by the Egyptian earthquake.
03:01 This is to give the disaster response agencies enough time to respond
03:07 and not to be added to the cases of government agencies and LGUs affected by the earthquake.
03:15 But he assured that the President is focusing on the situation in disaster-stricken areas.
03:22 Maris? Ivan, I have a question.
03:24 Did President Bombon Marcos have a chance to visit the King of Malaysia
03:30 about the 58 Filipinos who are in the death row?
03:34 Maris, that is one of the plans we have for the President.
03:41 Because until now, we haven't had a chance to talk to him.
03:45 But the President has a scheduled press conference with the members of the Malacanang Press Corps.
03:50 He will go there later this afternoon.
03:52 Thank you very much, Ivan. Myrena, take care.
