MANILA – President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. is scheduled to meet with United States (US) President Donald Trump and four other world leaders on the sidelines of the 49th Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) Summit and Related Summits.

In an interview at the International Media Convention at the World Trade Center Metro Manila in Pasay City, ASEAN 2026 spokesperson Dominic Xavier Imperial confirmed that Marcos will hold a bilateral meeting with Trump during the US leader's visit to the Philippines.

Trump is expected to arrive in Manila on Nov. 17 to attend the ASEAN-US Special Summit at the Philippine International Convention Center in Pasay City.

Aside from Trump, Marcos will also meet with the leaders of Australia, Brazil, Japan, and South Korea, Imperial said.

He said the proposed bilateral meetings with the leaders of India and Laos, as well as United Nations Secretary General António Guterres, are still being finalized.

The Philippines is hosting the 49th ASEAN Summit and Related Summits on Nov. 15 to 17.

Anchored on the theme “Navigating Our Future, Together,” the Philippines’ 2026 chairship is guided by three strategic priorities: peace and security anchors, prosperity corridors, and people empowerment.

These priorities reflect the country’s commitment to promoting peace and stability in the region, strengthening economic cooperation, and advancing inclusive development across Asia. (Ruth Abbey Gita-Carlos/PNA)
