The Philippine Star
|October 13, 2025
Malacañang has approved a long-term plan that seeks to support the country's creative industries, a sector that employs more than seven million Filipinos.
The Philippine Creative Industries Development Plan (PCIDP) was adopted through Memorandum Circular 103, signed by Executive Secretary Lucas Bersamin by the authority of President Marcos on Oct. 7.
The plan is a comprehensive blueprint that enumerates the objectives, strategic actions and initiatives designed to unlock the creative industry's full potential.
"The effective implementation of the PCIDP 2025-2034 requires the active support and cooperation of all national government agencies, instrumentalities, local government units and the private sector," the circular read.
The Philippine Creative Industries Development Council, which was formed by the Philippine Creative Industries Development Act, will lead the implementation of the plan. It will also review the plan every three years from the date of its execution.
Marcos noted that the country's national development plan recognizes the Philippine creative industries as key generators of jobs and economic value.
