President Ferdinand 'Bongbong' Marcos Jr. was welcomed by British government officials when he arrived in London to attend the coronation of King Charles III and Queen Consort Camilla.
"Sinalubong si PBBM ng representante ni King Charles III upang bigyan ng mainit na pagtanggap sa bansa," the Presidential Communications Office (PCO) said in a Facebook post on Friday night.
It also said that upon his arrival at Gatwick airport, Marcos was given a tour around the world's busiest airport, and he also met with its airport officials.
"Ito ay para makakalap ng mga ideya sa pagpapabuti ng operasyon ng mga airport sa Pilipinas," PCO noted.&nbsp;
