Manila: Philippine President Ferdinand Romualdez Marcos left for Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, on Thursday morning to participate in the inaugural summit between the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) and the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) leaders.

Marcos said in his departure speech the summit on Friday will discuss the challenges of major political developments and concrete enhancement of our security, our economic progress and socio-cultural collaboration after more than 30 years of ASEAN-GCC relations.

This (summit) is particularly important because this is the first interaction between ASEAN and the GCC, both of whom are very vibrant regions in terms of economic development for the globe, said Marcos, stressing the need for the Philippines to be part of the discussions.

The summit, according to Marcos, will be a significant opportunity for the Philippines to emphasize the need for collaboration in the areas of food security, logistics, supply chains, digitization, the free movement of goods, personnel, and services, and the safeguarding of Filipino laborers.

An estimated 2.2 million Filipinos are working in critical fields in GCC countries.

The relationship between the ASEAN and the GCC dates back to 1990. The GCC comprises Saudi Arabia, Oman, Qatar, Bahrain, Kuwait, and the United Arab Emirates. ASEAN groups Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam.
