01:04 for strengthening bilateral cooperation
01:07 as well as strengthening bilateral ties and the country's cohesion.

01:17 The President will also attend business forums in both countries
01:22 and be participated in by prominent business leaders.
01:26 He will then meet with major companies
01:29 intending to take advantage of the Philippines' continuing impressive economic performance

01:57 So it's facilitating the movement of maritime trade.
02:01 And you know very well that one-third of the seapayers around the world are Filipinos.
02:10 And a robust shipping industry in the Philippines and in worldwide
02:15 will be good for the employment of seapayers, Filipino seapayers.
02:21 A cooperation program will also be signed there

02:45 to ensure the safe and proper migration of Filipinos there
02:49 and to protect their rights and well-being as overseas workers.
02:54 For now, the Czech Republic is getting interested
02:57 to add more Filipino workers there
03:00 where the country set a quota of 10,000 OFW per year,
03:04 which was previously set at 5,000.
03:07 They really appreciate the work ethic of our countrymen
03:12 and their talent and skills.
03:15 So that's one. So they do get a premium in terms of recruitment and benefits.
03:22 And as far as Europe is concerned,
03:26 Europe has a problem with its population.
03:30 A lot of them have a shortage in their working population.
03:38 According to the DFA, there is a high possibility
03:41 that the issue of the President's visit to West Philippine Sea
03:45 will be discussed in Germany and the Czech Republic.

03:50 support in the Philippines after several incidents in the territory.
03:54 The agency also pointed out that the President's visit to other countries
03:58 is for the good of the Philippines and not for the sake of the government fund.
04:02 No, not at all.
04:04 These trips are all in support of the President's development agenda
04:13 for the well-being of our country and the progress of the Filipinos.
04:23 The President's visit to the two countries was possible
04:26 after he was invited by officials there.

04:33 while 7,000 Filipinos are in the Czech Republic.
