HAINAN - The Philippines and China are expected to sign an agreement that will send more Filipino English teachers to Beijing in a move seen to further warm ties between the two countries. The hiring of more Filipino teachers for China is one of the bilateral agreements to be signed during the visit of President Rodrigo Duterte here. "There are some minor details still being ironed out, but if everything works, the agreement (is) to hire more Filipino English teachers for China," Philippine ambassador to China Chito Sta. Romana explained that there are Filipino teachers here but they found the jobs on their own. Romana said the improved ties between the Philippines and China also played a role in the readiness of Beijing to hire more Filipino teachers.
