The way how the Philippine makes its people&#8230;skilled and dedicated and productive,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe know well the Philippines through its workers. We are so grateful and we can share a lot in the area of trade and industry. From the fastest growing economy, we can share a lot. Ethiopia is also now growing larger, step by step (becoming) a large country and the largest economy in East Africa with huge potential in trade and investment.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Philippine businessmen can invest in Ethiopia\u2019s industrial area, particularly with their expertise in manufacturing especially electronics, which they could introduce to Ethiopia, he said, noting that aside from being a large country in Africa, his country is also a gateway in that region.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s geographically located bridging the Middle East and the rest of Africa and also Western countries. So, if Filipino businessmen come and invest in Ethiopia, it\u2019s possible to take advantage of Africa market.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He also raised the need to establish air linkages between Ethiopia and the Philippines to strengthen bilateral cooperation in various fields, which could also be expanded regionally in Africa.<\/p>\n<p>The Philippines and Ethiopia have agreed to cooperate on trade, technology, Manila-Addis Ababa air linkage, according to Office of the President of the Philippines.<\/p>\n<p>The Philippines and Ethiopia formally established diplomatic relations on February 7, 1977, and are celebrating 46 years of diplomatic relations this year.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/ethiopia\">Ethiopia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Ethiopia.
