Japan to honor PBBM, FL during state visit with highest, most prestigious decorations
Manila Bulletin
|May 23, 2026
TOKYO The Japanese government decided Friday to honor Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. and his wife, Louise Araneta-Marcos, during their four-day state visit to Japan beginning Tuesday.
The president will receive the Grand Cordon of the Supreme Order of the Chrysanthemum. The first lady will be honored with the Grand Cordon of the Order of the Precious Crown.
Japan's Chief Cabinet Secretary Minoru Kihara told a press conference Friday that the aim of the decoration is to further promote friendly relations between Japan and the Philippines.
The Grand Cordon of the Supreme Order of the Chrysanthemum is Japan's highest and most prestigious decoration.
Established in 1876 by Emperor Meiji, it is awarded for exceptionally meritorious achievements. It is primarily bestowed upon members of the Imperial Family, foreign royalty, and heads of state.
The Grand Cordon of the Order of the Precious Crown is a prestigious Japanese honor established in 1888 by Emperor Meiji. Originally a women-only equivalent to the Order of the Rising Sun, it is now primarily conferred on female members of the Imperial Family and distinguished foreign women.
The state visit, scheduled on May 26 to 29, 2026, is upon the invitation of the Japanese Government.
During the State Visit, the President and First Lady are set to be received by Their Majesties the Emperor and Empress of Japan at the Imperial Palace for a welcome ceremony, state call, and state banquet.
