14 May 2021, Nanjing – Consul General Josel F. Ignacio was warmly received today at the headquarters of the Foreign Affairs Office (FAO) of the Jiangsu Provincial Government in Nanjing City by officials led by the Deputy Director General Huang Xiqiang.
“Jiangsu Province now attaches great importance to its relationship with ASEAN countries, including the Philippines”, said DDG Huang. He extolled the rise in trade, tourism and people-to-people exchanges between the province and the Philippines, with provincial imports from the Philippines rising 22.4%. He also cited Jiangsu companies’ existing investments in the Philippines.
Consul General Ignacio confirmed this positive development, citing expressions of interest and plans for business missions communicated by Jiangsu firms to the Consulate General.
Touching on efforts to eventually revive tourism, he invited the Jiangsu government to take part in online events being organized by the Department of Tourism in the coming months. Noting that DDG Huang has visited other ASEAN countries, he expressed the Consulate General’s readiness to facilitate a FAO delegation’s visit to the Philippines, once circumstances and national health regimes so permit.

Call on Jiangsu FAO2

The Consul General, accompanied by Consul Marlowe A. Miranda and interpreter Tang Mingxian, called on the FAO en route to Nanjing Luokuo International Airport, where a team from the Consulate General was due to assist the scheduled Philippine government-sponsored repatriation of 155 Filipinos from across the Chinese mainland, later that evening.
The Consul General thanked the FAO for working with Beijing authorities to facilitate the clearance for the Philippine-government chartered flight, as well as for supporting the inclusion of Filipinos from within its jurisdiction in the repatriation.
Jiangsu Province, west of Shanghai, is one of four Chinese provinces under the jurisdiction of the Philippine Consulate General. The three others are Anhui, Hubei and Zhejiang. END

FILIPINO AND CHINESE EDUCATORS CALL ON CONSULATE GENERAL ON PROPOSED PHILIPPINE SCHOOL IN SHANGHAI

Filipino and Chinese Educators Call on Consulate General Proposed Philippine School in Shanghai Consul Marlowe A. Miranda (3rd from left) leads Consulate General officials in meeting with Ms. Carmel Feliciano (4th from left) and Chinese partners to discuss the proposal for a Philippine school in Shanghai.

Shanghai, 22 April 2021 – A Philippine international school targeting Filipinos, Chinese and other nationalities may soon rise again in Shanghai under a project proudly reported by its proponents to the Philippine Consulate General in the city.

Shanghai-based Filipino teacher and educator Ms. Carmel Feliciano called on Consulate General Officials on 22 April, accompanied by co-proponents Mr. Jie Zhou, a professor of English literature at the Shanghai International Studies University, and Ms. Fu Ping Ying, who is helping with conceptualization and set-up.

A Philippine international school offering pre-school to secondary-level curricula will mean a richer learning environment for Filipino children and youth in Shanghai, many of whom are currently limited to homeschooling.

In 2003, Ms. Feliciano had co-founded with another Filipino the Shanghai International Day Care Center, which quickly expanded into a larger Shanghai International Academy offering high-quality and affordable pre-school to high school education. Regrettably, circumstances forced its closure in 2010.

Armed with lessons and experience, Ms. Feliciano and her partners are looking to build a more enduring institution, responsive to both the needs of today’s students and the exacting standards set by local authorities. Just as significantly, Ms. Feliciano is keen to educate enrollees in subjects taught under Philippine and Chinese curricula, seeking the necessary accreditation from Philippine and Chinese education authorities for the purpose.
The Philippine Consulate General was represented by Consul Marlowe A. Miranda, Consul Conrado B. Demdem, Jr., Trade Representative Mr. Mario Tani, and Tourism Officer Mr. Ireneo Reyes. They welcomed the proposal and offered to extend appropriate support for the undertaking. END
