I was looking online for the Philippine- Korean Friendship Day and at last I found it!A luncheon event that happened last March 3, 2009 at the Westin Chosun Hotel Korea, Philippine Ambassador to Seoul Luis T. Cruz formally launched the 60th Anniversary of Philippines-Korea relations. The event announced the Embassy's activities for the yearlong celebration.
Amb. Cruz opened the ceremony with the announcement by Philippine President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo designating March 3, 2009 as "Philippines-Korea Friendship Day" and the year 2009 as "Philippines-Korea Friendship Year" under Proclamation No. 1495 dated 17 May 2008.
The Korea Post launched the Philippines-Korea Commemorative Stamps during the same event, featuring Korea's "Sonori in Hangawi" and the Philippine "Panagbenga Flower Festival."
