His Highness Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al-Thani, the Amir of the State of Qatar, concludes his historic State Visit to the Philippines as he departs from the Villamor Air Base in Pasay City on April 22, 2024.
This is the first visit of a current Amir to the country since 2012 geared towards restrengthening the already robust ties between the Philippines and Qatar.
In their meeting at the Malacañan Palace, President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. and His Highness the Amir reaffirmed their nations’ unyielding commitment to intensify the 43 years of friendship and cooperation. The productive and fruitful discussions also deepened collaboration in various fields of interest anchored in opening more opportunities to improve bilateral relations at all levels.
Serving as the highlight of the visit is the nine (9) signed agreements between the Governments of the Philippines and Qatar. These focused on several mutual interests such as labor, climate change action, trade and investments, sports and education, tourism and seafarers’ welfare, among others.
After the Philippines, His Highness the Amir is proceeding to Bangladesh and Nepal as part of his three-stop working tour in Asia.
