PRESIDENT Ferdinand Marcos Jr. on Monday wished King Charles 3rd and Queen Camilla of the United Kingdom 'a long and happy reign' after personally witnessing the 'joyous occasion of their coronation' at Westminster Abbey in London over the weekend.

'It was as grand and magnificent a ceremony as could have been, full of symbolism and weighted by history. It was a great honor for me to represent the Philippines on such a historic occasion,' the Chief Executive said in a statement.
