"Otherwise we have improved the relations, we have renewed the ties with China and the Philippines and we kind of just restored the normalcy that we used to have or have had with China. So we agreed on a renewed bilateral relationship, signed some trade and commerce and for the first time China was buying everything from us. This relation plus of course the commitment of China to help in the industrialization of my country."

7. SOUNDBITE (English) Rodrigo Duterte, Philippine President (partially overlaid with shots 8-9/ending with shots 10-13):
"One is people to people actually. I'm sure China is very lenient in issuing visas for Filipinos intending to go [to China]. Second is that China is planning to hire Filipinos to work there. China has gone by leaps and bounds and at one time your demographic experts say that we need some land here but some factories, but we do not have enough manpower or expertise. And it has sounded off a plan to employ Filipinos that would greatly enhance our friendship, people to people, our national interest now."

Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte said his country has renewed the ties with China and hopes the bilateral cooperation to go deeper as Chinese President Xi Jinping arrives on Tuesday.
Duterte made the remarks in an interview with China Global Television Network (CGTN) on Nov 7 ahead of Xi's two-day state visit.
He said that in the past there was an ever cooling of bilateral relations between the two countries because the Philippines had for ages simply dovetailed the economic and political policies of the United States.

This relation plus of course the commitment of China to help in the industrialization of my country," he said.
The good momentum of the bilateral relations does not come by easily, so Duterte said his country will do its part to try to keep it going.
