Direct flights mula Manila papuntang Belgium, magkakaroon na –PBBM

ISA sa mga malaking resulta ng lakad ni Pangulong Ferdinand ‘Bongbong’ Marcos, Jr. ay ang nakatakdang pagkakaroon ng direct flights mula Manila to Brussels, Belgium.

Ayon sa Brussels Airport Company, win-win para sa Pilipinas at Belgium ang kasunduan.

“We are working on the opportunity to have a direct flight between Manila and Brussels… And we think that basically there is a win-win for both countries to be connected directly,” pahayag ni Arnaud Feist, CEO ng Brussels Airport Company.

Interesado naman ang Philippine Airlines sa plano at nagpahayag ng kahandaan na magbukas ng direct flights sa Belgium.

Sa ngayon kasi, may stop over sa Dubai International Airport ang lahat ng bibiyahe patungong Belgium via commercial flight.

“That’s really the vision that we are excited to see. We want to improve the economic activities in the Philippines and also here,” pahayag ni Stanly Ang, PAL President, CEO.

Samantala, bubuo ng advisory council si Pangulong Marcos para tugunan ang problema ng mga Filipino seaman sa Europe.

Ito ang resulta ng meeting ng Punong Ehekutibo sa international maritime employers at shipowners sa Brussels.

Kasama sa advisory council ang concerned government agencies, international ship owners at iba pang stakeholders.

Matatandaan na pinangangambahan na mawalan ng trabaho ng nasa 50,000 Pinoy seaman sa Europe dahil hindi compliant ang kanilang training sa Standards of Training, Certification, and Watchkeeping (STCW) Convention.

Nauna nang sinabi ng Pangulo na tutukan nito ang isyu na ito sa kanyang pagdalaw sa Europa.

“Our seafarers are of great importance to the Philippines in many ways. Although we recognize that in the last many years, the Philippines has done very well in terms of being the leading seafarers around the world, however, with the changing situation after the pandemic, with the changing situation especially when we talk about supply line problems, all of these areas have to be revisited,”pahayag ni PBBM.
