“Diplomacy is not reality TV. The world is not a casino. Statecraft is not a real estate deal.”
@UNReliefChief @TFletcher tells me that as the war with Iran continues to escalate, “We’ll be paying for this war for years to come…
“We’re deeply frustrated… that’s diplomatic speak for saying we’re furious. Because rich people are winning out of this. The arms dealers are winning… And the people I serve are losing.”

📣Keynote Speaker Announcement📣
We are honored to announce that Senator @kikopangilinan will serve as Keynote Speaker at the National Symposium on the Law of the Sea and the West Philippine Sea on 30–31 March 2026 at the Marco Polo Ortigas.
As Chair of the Senate Committee on Agriculture, Food and Agrarian Reform, and a longstanding advocate of good governance and principled approach to foreign policy, Senator Pangilinan’s insights will be invaluable as we reflect on the 10th year of the 2016 Arbitral Award and the Philippines’ continued pursuit of a rules-based maritime order.
The symposium will combine capacity-building with policy dialogues, and will bring together leading legal scholars, academics, and practitioners to deepen understanding of UNCLOS, strengthen national consensus on the West Philippine Sea and broader China policy.

📅March 30–31, 2026

📍Grand Ballroom, Marco Polo Ortigas

The Philippine Consulate General in Jeddah coordinates with Singapore the accommodation of 24 overseas Filipino workers on a Singapore-organized repatriation flight.
The OFWs, accompanied by Consul General to Jeddah Rommel Romato at the King Abdulaziz International Airport, departed Jeddah on March 12, and arrived in Singapore the next day, where they were assisted by the Philippine Embassy in Singapore with their onward travel to the Philippines.
The Migrant Workers Office and the Overseas Workers Welfare Administration in Jeddah facilitated the booking of their flights to Manila and also extended financial assistance.
In a statement on Friday (March 13, 2026), the DFA conveyed its appreciation to the Government of Singapore, describing it a “benevolent act, which exemplifies the ASEAN spirit of solidarity.” | Joyce Ann Rocamora; Photos courtesy of DFA
