"As our doors open up in the new normal, I will invite our Chinese neighbors to once again return to the Philippines as tourists, as students, investors," said Philippine President Ferdinand Romualdez Marcos Jr. when leaving for China on Tuesday for a three-day state visit.
Marcos is the first foreign leader hosted by China in 2023. This visit is his first visit to China as president and his first official visit to a country outside the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN).
