Building on networking gains last year, lady diplomats of the Philippine Consulate General connected anew with counterparts in other Shanghai-based consular missions last September 28, as they attended the annual Welcome Luncheon of the Consular Spouses Shanghai (CSS) at the J Hotel Shanghai Tower.

The PCG was represented by Consular Attachées Ms. Cherryann F. Belmonte-Banda and Ms. Jeannie F. Petrola. Joining them were Mrs. Anna Kathleen C. Tani and Mrs. May Villanueva, spouses of Filipino diplomats assigned at the PCG.

Formed in 1975, the CSS is a non-profit association that serves as principal vehicle for the interaction and networking of female diplomats and consular spouses in Shanghai, via cultural, social and charitable activities. END
