President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo's Speech during the Inauguration of Asian Development Bank (ADB) Philippines Country Office (PHCO)

Thank you very much.
Mr. Chino, Mr. Hecker, our members of the cabinet, officials of the bank and staff, members of media, other guests, ladies and gentlemen:
I'm happy to be here in our inaugural rites today. This marks a special moment in the history of the partnership between the Asian Development Bank (ADB) and the Philippine government.
The ADB has had a long special role and interest in Philippine development, as evidenced by its being the country's second largest source of developmental funds. Our country has been one of ADB's more active clients, as mentioned by Mr. Chino borrowing about US$ 250 million annually and ranking as the 8th largest shareholder in ADB among it's regional members.
