The Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) signed a Loan Agreement (L/A) of up to 30 billion yen with the Government of the Republic of the Philippines on April 25 in Tokyo for the “Emergency Assistance Loan for the New Coronavirus Crisis Response (Phase 2)”.
This project will support the Philippine government’s response to the coronavirus crisis through financial assistance cofinanced by the Asian Development Bank (ADB). The project aims to support the Philippine government’s emergency response to control the spread of the disease throughout the country, and will contribute to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) Goal 1 (End Poverty), Goal 3 (Health and Welfare for All), and Goal 8 (Job Satisfaction and Economic Growth).
