Wazxup Pilipinas!?
Japan State Minister for Foreign Affairs Mr. Tsuge Yoshifumi, and former Postmaster at Nagoya Moritaka Post Office met with Philippine Postal Corporation (PHLPost) Chairman Stephen Cruz and Postmaster General/CEO Luis Carlos to discuss how Japan can help PHLPost improve its postal services through Digitalization and maintain its Universal Postal Obligation of delivering mails nationwide especially in far-flung areas.
Japan is keen on collaborating with PHLPost on projects that would comprehensively carry out a broad range of partnerships on modernization initiatives at the mail exchange centers and possible cooperation on banking services.
State Minister Tsuge and his party visited the postal operations particularly at the Central Mail Exchange Center (CMEC) in Pasay City.
State Minister Tsuge noted the importance of collaboration and building of diplomatic ties between Japan and the Philippines, and stated that the trust between the two countries postal agency’s has been fostered with the two-day mission of Japan Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications (MIC) and Japan Post together with the Embassy of Japan at the postal facilities of PHLPost last March 2024.
He expressed his confidence that cooperation in various areas will contribute to the further development of the postal services in terms of Digitalization and the growing friendship between Japan and the Philippines. This will enable PHLPost to improve and optimize its mail delivery to meet the growing demand especially in e-commerce.
Japan has one of the best postal services and infrastructure in the world. Japan Post is the only Asian country that is level 10 in the Integrated Index for Postal Development (2IPD) 2022 of the Universal Postal Union. Japan Post Co., Ltd., a member of the Japan Post Group and operates approximately 24,000 post offices nationwide, provides universal postal, banking and insurance service.
According to Postmaster General Carlos, “We are very much honored to be visited by the State Minister of Japan for Foreign Affairs. The collaboration being offered is a welcome initiative to PHLPost. Through strengthened partnership and good governance, PHLPost will embark on a journey towards transformation and growth, together with its dedicated postal employees, as the postal service will remain committed to delivering reliable and affordable postal services, embracing innovation, and fostering closer ties with its stakeholders”.
