MONDAY, JANUARY 24, 2005 | FOREIGN RELATIONS
24 January 2004 - Foreign Affairs Secretary Alberto G. Romulo welcomed the donation of books about Germany as an appropriate launching of the celebrations for the 50th Anniversary of Philippine-German diplomatic relations stressing that “a good knowledge of each other is certainly the foundation if not a pre-requisite for active relations between countries.” Speaking during the turn over ceremony of books donated by the Philippine Embassy in Berlin to the Carlos P. Romulo Library at the Department of Foreign Affairs this afternoon, Secretary Romulo said that this event is “an appropriate kick-off activity for the 50th anniversary of the establishment of PhilippineGerman diplomatic relations, which we commemorate this year…(and)..as we celebrate 50 years of friendship and cooperation, we hope these books will help strengthen our bilateral relations in the next 50 years.” The theme for the celebration is “Partners in Progress.” The Foreign Affairs Secretary welcomes the addition to the Library’s resources in the form of 34 books from Germany. Secretary Romulo thanked the Philippine Embassy in Berlin, headed by Ambassador Minerva Jean A. Falcon, for this project of turning over the books to the collection of the Carlos P. Romulo Library, “an important tool which is realizing effectively the mandate of the Department of Foreign Affairs”. The CPR Library has a collection of approximately 10,000 volumes of books and many more publications on the various areas of interest in foreign policy. The Library is also the depository of reports of Philippine foreign service establishment, as well as the originals of treaties and agreements entered into by the Philippine government throughout history. The books from Germany will make available to library users up-to-date information about Germany, which remains a major trading partner of the Philippines. The 34 books are on various locations and regions of Germany and comprise a comprehensive survey of the regional and cross-regional economic structures in German regions and cities. “The books highlight technological centers, innovations and favorable conditions - information very useful to our offices here in the Department as well as to private companies and individuals who want to know more about Germany and its economic environment,” Secretary Romulo explained. The Office of European Affairs headed by Assistant Secretary Jaime J. Yambao and the Foreign Service Institute headed by Ambassador Erlinda F. Basilio, organized the turn over ceremony. Ambassador Falcon personally handed over the books to FSI Director Ambassador Basilio. Also present during the turn over ceremony were Ambassador Axel Weishaupt of the Federal Republic of Germany, Mrs. Beth Day Romulo and former DFA Undersecretary and Senator Leticia Ramos-Shahani, author of the Foreign Service Act.
