Anvil celebrates 30th Anniversary of Phil-China Ties

Anvil Business Club (ABC) joins the rest of the Philippines in celebrating the 30th Anniversary of formal diplomatic relations between the Philippines and China on June 9, 2005 at a formal dinner in the Manila Hotel. ABC officers received formal invitations to this affair which will be attended by President Gloria M. Arroyo and five past China Ambassadors to Manila, plus the business and political elite of Philippine society numbering 800 persons.

Auspiciously, the major Chinese-language newspapers like "United Daily News" , "World News" and others on this same historic day of June 9 published the most prominent news articles with 2 colored photos each on ABC officers' recent 2-hours meeting with China Ambassador Wu Hongbu.

The Chinese media news recognizes Anvil Business Club as a fast-rising and dynamic force, whose 16 officers/directors and fast-expanding membership will not only promote entrepreneurship and excellence among the youth, but a catalyst for closer Phil-China economic, trade, cultural and other cooperation. The news reports quoted Anvil Past Chairman Michael Tan saying that the Filipino-Chinese youth should visit booming China at least once a year. ABC President Wilson Lee Flores extended an invitation for Ambassador Wu to speak at our prestigious "Anvil Exchange Forum", and he had accepted.

The Chinese news reports said that the 2-hours meeting of the China Ambassador and ABC officers were conducted entirely in fluent Mandarin, covering topics as diverse as Asian geopolitics, Chinese history and economic boom, investment and trade opportunities, and other issues.

Anvil Business Club strongly believes that the Filipino Chinese youth and the whole Philippines should benefit---not lose out on the innumerable opportunities---from the amazing and breathtaking China "Economic Miracle" which is now irreversibly changing world history!
