Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas Governor Benjamin Diokno (right) and Japanese Finance Minister Taro Aso (left) sign Friday a letter of intent signifying the mutual interest of the Philippine central bank and the Japanese ministry to explore the establishment of a Japanese Yen-Philippine Peso Direct Trading Framework.
