Shanghai, 13 August 2021 – With 48 days or roughly six weeks remaining in the voter registration period, Filipinos in Shanghai and the provinces of Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Hubei, and Anhui are being urged anew to visit the Consulate General to register for purposes of May 2022 polls, while paying due attention to COVID-19 safety measures and restrictions by local authorities.

The Consulate General reiterated its call to the Filipino public as its three-member team registered today a total of 27 executives and personnel of Qingpu-based Filipino snack food giant Liwayway (China) Co. Ltd. -- maker of the famous Oishi line of snacks -- led by Chairman and CEO Mr. Larry A. Chan. Another 18 were verified to be existing qualified voters. The team was composed of Deputy Consul General Marlowe Miranda and Attachés Ronaldo B. Villanueva and Chris Ian San B. Juan.

“I wasn’t really sure if I was still a registered overseas voter, and so were many Filipino employees of Liwayway,” said Mr. Ronald Yap, a staff member who expressed appreciation for the off-site registration by the Consulate General. “This morning, we shuttled five Filipino employees from our factory in Nanhui (Pudong District) and six from the factory in Taicang (Jiangsu Province) so they can register,” he enthused.

A week prior, company Liwayway Executive Vice Chairman Mr. Archie A. Chan and EVP Mr. Walter Angsanto visited the Consulate General to register.

Registration is straightforward, involving the completion of the prescribed COMELEC form, capturing the applicant’s biometric data and the administration of an oath. Registered overseas voters may cast their votes for President, Vice President, Senators and Party-List Representatives for a month-long period from 10 April 2022 until 09 May 2022.

Overseas absentee voting registration will run every day until 30 September during office hours. Applicants are required to bring their original passports as proof of citizenship and identity. Forms are available at the Consulate General. Filipinos visiting to register are requested to wear facemasks and present their Shanghai green health code at the building entrance in accordance with Changning District health regulations currently in effect.
