CHRIS Nelson, executive director and trustee of the British Chamber of Commerce Philippines (BCCP) welcomes President Ferdinand 'Bongbong' Marcos Jr.'s first State of the Nation Address, focusing on the economy.

For the BCCP, the reassurance to capitalize on the Duterte administration's game-changing economic reforms, such as the newly amended Public Service Act and the Foreign Investments Act, will not only send a clear signal to foreign investors, but guarantee policy continuity, moving toward further economic liberalization.
