Ishiba will also be signing some agreements—ranging from political to economic to cultural, Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) Secretary Enrique Manalo said in an earlier interview.

He also described the visit as "very important" because Japan and the Philippines are strategic partners.

"Very important because Japan is our strategic partner and we have very close relations with Japan in so many areas so it is a symbol of the strength and growing cooperation between our two countries," Manalo emphasized.
