President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. asked Aboitiz Group chief executive Sabin Aboitiz to organize the Private Sector Advisory Council.
Aboitiz responded to the president’s call and convened PSAC. He committed to support the new administration’s business and economic aims for the country.
The council consists of business leaders and experts who pledged support to the government in meeting economic objectives across five main sectoral groups. Designated sector leads are Aboitiz for “Build, Build, Build”; Aileen Uygongco-Ongkauko for agriculture and tourism; Joey Concepcion for “jabs to jobs”; Henry Aguda for digital infrastructure; and Paolo Borromeo for healthcare.
“The close partnership between the public and private sectors will continue to deepen with the establishment of PSAC under President Marcos. We are optimistic that by working hand-in-hand with the government to develop the five priority areas, we will see a revitalized economy that all Filipinos will benefit from,” said Aboitiz.
