1 September 2014 – The new Philippine Consul General in Hawaii, Ms. Gina A. Jamoralin, made her customary courtesy calls on several members of the Consular Corps of Hawaii this August.

Consul General Jamoralin met with Consul General Walter Paik of the Republic of Korea on August 18 at the Consulate General of Korea along Pali Highway, a stone’s throw away from the Philippine Consulate General. In the morning of the following day, she met Consul General Scott Dewar of Australia and in the afternoon, Belgian Honorary Consul Jeffrey Daniel Lau who is also the Dean of the Consular Corps of Hawaii. Consul General Jamoralin met Japanese Consul General Toyoei Shigeeda on August 26.

During the discussions, Consul General Jamoralin informed her counterparts about her priories, the first of which is to promote the welfare of the almost 400,000 Filipinos in the State which is the largest ethnic community in the Islands. She also shared her plans of having deeper engagement with the US Pacific Command (USPACOM) and promoting trade, tourism and cultural activities among the Philippines, the State of Hawaii and the Consular Corps.  END
