- The Government of Japan has revised the Country Development Cooperation Policy for the Republic of the Philippines.
- The revised development cooperation policy states that making full use of its strengths, Japan will extend economic cooperation for the Philippines’ pursuit of “inclusive growth, a high-trust and resilient society, and a globally competitive knowledge economy” that the Philippine Development Plan 2017-2022 states as its goals.
- In the development cooperation policy, Japan lays out three priority areas: (1) “strengthening a foundation for sustainable economic growth,” (2) “ensuring human security for inclusive growth,” and (3) “peace and development in Mindanao.”
- As is clear from the Rolling Plan for the Republic of the Philippines, Annex of the Development Cooperation Policy, Japan is providing a broad range of development cooperation for the Philippines under the three priority areas.
