Philippine President Benigno Aquino III is set to make his first presidential visit to Los Angeles on June 5 and 6.
The Philippine Consulate here has started preparing for the visit as well as that of Vice president Jejomar Binay a few days before, Consul General Mary Jo Bernardo Aragon told the Inquirer on Tuesday (Wednesday in Manila).
Aragon said the consulate staff would be ¿very busy the next few weeks¿ working with the Philippine Embassy in Washington, D.C. and coordinating Aquino¿s meetings with the Filipino-American community and business investors here.
From Los Angeles Aquino will proceed to Washington where he will meet with President Obama.
Binay is scheduled to visit Los Angeles to lead an advance Independence Day celebration on June 2.
US Ambassador to the Philippines Harry Thomas Jr., who met with Fil-Ams here last week, confirmed the meeting between Aquino and President Obama in the White House.
