Nancy Binay, nilinaw na 'di kaaway ang kapatid na si Abby: 'Pamilya pa rin kami!'

Bibisita sa Pilipinas si South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol ngayong taon o sa 2024.

Ito ang isinapubliko ni South Korean Ambassador-designate Lee Sang-Hwa matapos iharap ang kanyang credentials kay Pangulong Ferdinand Marcos, Jr. sa Malacañang nitong Lunes, Hulyo 10.

Ang inaasahang pagbisita ni Yoon sa bansa ay bilang bahagi ng pagdiriwang ng ika-75 anibersaryo ng diplomatic relations ng Pilipinas at South Korea sa 2024.

“That’s exactly the point our President Yoon Suk Yeol mentioned to me at the credential ceremony in Seoul. He really, really looks forward to visiting this very country Philippines. But if not this year, I’m sure sometime in the first half of next year as we mark our 75th anniversary,” pahayag ni Lee kay Marcos.

Inaasahang makakasama ng Pangulo si Yoon sa gaganaping Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Summit sa Estados Unidos sa Nobyembre 2023.

“Of course, there are many other conferences and I hope that maybe in November when we go to the United States for the APEC because I’m sure your President will attend, maybe we’ll have a chance to at least meet and have a bilateral meeting,” anang Pangulo.

“But after that, I think both sides now will be able to plan better. It’s been a busy year because we just finished our first year of this administration. So slowly, slowly, we are beginning to find ways to adjust our schedules to all these very important events that we are going through,” sabi pa ni Marcos.

Sinabi pa ni Lee na nakatakda ring bumisita sa Pilipinas ngayong taon si South Korean National Assembly Speaker Kin Jin-Pyo, kasama ang iba pang opisyal, upang makipagpulong sa kanilang counterpart sa layuning tumatag pa ang relasyon ng dalawang bansa.
