President Ferdinand 'Bongbong' Marcos Jr. is open having a partnership with the United States of America (USA) to strengthen the nursing industry of both countries following the heavy toll from the Covid-19 pandemic.

Marcos says the Philippines is not holding nurses back from finding opportunities abroad, but the Philippine government has to study the proposal first.

In his remarks, the President said he does not see any problem regarding the proposal but added that the Philippine government would have to study it first, especially since the country is facing a shortage of nurses at home. "But we need to find these new schemes so that the brain drain is not quite severe as it is now... But certainly, we should examine that," he added," he said.

While there are no concrete plans yet, Marcos and Duckworth believe the proposal would strengthen the ties between the Philippines and the US."I'm sure if we figure out the details, that probably…sounds like a good idea," he added.
