Dagdag ni Abella na nakatakdang makipagpulong ni Duterte sa Filipin community sa South Korea.
“The majority are workers entering the country under the Employment Permit System or EPS, while the rest are students, professionals, missionaries, and spouses of Korean nationals,” sabi ni Abella.
Tinatayang aabot sa 68,000 Pinoy ang nasa South Korea.
“Aside from the Fil Com, the President will also participate in a summit meeting, business luncheon forum, and a summit meeting, business luncheon forum and E-Mart Philippine Food Festival,” dagdag ni Abella.

“There will also be a reference to social cooperation or the protection of nationals of both countries, with about 1.6 million Korean tourists to the Philippines and 450,000 Filipino tourists to Korea in 2017, aside from the expatriates in each country,” ayon pa kay Abella.
