BINIGYAN-DIIN ni AnaKalusugan Partylist Rep. Ray Reyes na ang naitalang pagtaas sa 90-percent ng foreign direct investments (FDI) sa bansa ay patunay lamang na positibo at nakatulong ng malaki sa pagpapalakas ng ekonomiya ang mga pagbiyahe ni Pangulong Ferdinand Marcos Jr.
“As I have said time and again, PBBM is our country’s chief salesman and he is doing a very good job at it. The results speak for itself,” pahayag ni Reyes.
“A 90-percent increase in FDI is nothing to sneeze at. What we see is only the beginning and we look forward to more investments this year,” dagdag ng AnaKalusugan partylist lawmaker.
Partikular na tinukoy ni Reyes ang ulat ng Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) kung saan lumalabas na naabot ng bansa ang $907 million in net FDI nitong nakaraang buwan ng Enero, na katumbas ng 89.9 percent increase kumpara sa parehong buwan ng nakalipas na taon.
Sa naturang ulat, 69 percent ng kabuuang pamumuhunan ang mula sa Japan, habang 19 percent naman ang ambag ng Estados Unidos.
“This is no coincidence because the president met with Japanese Prime Minister Kishida Fumio and other ASEAN leaders in Tokyo last December,” dugtong ni Reyes.
“With this in mind, the president’s critics should put all doubt to rest and admit that his international engagements are indeed vital to support the country’s development agenda,” mariing pahayag pa ng kongresista.
Ani Reyes, kamakailan lamang ay lumipad patungong Washington, DC si Pangulong Marcos para sa trilateral meeting kasama sina US President Joe Biden at Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida.
“We echo Speaker Ferdinand Martin Romualdez in congratulating the president for being part of this historic meeting,” ayon sa mambabatas.
“All of us in the House of Representatives are committed to do our part in ensuring the passage of laws that will safeguard our territorial integrity and improve the lives of the Filipino people,” pangwakas ni Reyes.
