President Marcos' tweet congratulating Taiwan's president-elect Lai Chingte was his way of thanking Taiwan for hosting 200,000 overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) and holding a successful democratic process, the Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) said yesterday, while reaffirming the country's one-China policy.
In a statement, the DFA said the Philippines and Taiwan share mutual interests, which include the welfare of nearly 200,000 OFWs in Taiwan.
"Nevertheless, the Philippines reaffirms its one-China policy," the DFA said.
In a post on X, formerly Twitter, on Monday, Marcos congratulated Lai on his election, saying he was looking forward to "close collaboration, strengthening mutual interests, fostering peace and ensuring prosperity for our peoples in the years ahead." "On behalf of the Filipino people, I congratulate president-elect Lai Ching-te on his election as Taiwan's next president," Marcos posted.
