TOKYO, Japan — Philippine and Japanese flags can be seen hoisted along several streets of Tokyo’s Minato and Chiyoda Cities, as Japan anticipates the arrival of President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. for a five-day state visit.
Photos taken on Wednesday showed flags raised along Kokkai-dori Street and other adjacent roads, displaying the two flags waving side by side.
Marcos is expected to arrive at around 6 p.m. on Wednesday (Tokyo time). He will then meet with several of Japan’s leaders including members of the Imperial Family and Japanese Prime Minister Kishida Fumio.
