✨ BUILDING BRIDGES. CELEBRATING CULTURE. SHAPING MANILA’S FUTURE. ✨

A meaningful day of collaboration and shared purpose. 🇵🇭🇨🇳

The Mr. and Ms. Chinatown Philippines - MMCP Organization and Miss Chinatown Foundation Philippines Inc. . had the honor of paying a courtesy visit to Director Cristal L. Bagatsing of the Department of Tourism, Culture and Arts of Manila (DTCAM) and Hon. Edward M. Tan, Councilor of Manila.

The visit was more than a courtesy call—it was a meaningful exchange centered on culture, tourism, community, and the enduring Filipino-Chinese relationship. ❤️

We are deeply grateful to Director Bagatsing for her warm welcome and support for the initiatives and projects of the Mr. and Ms. Chinatown Philippines Organization. Her openness to collaboration reinforces our shared commitment to celebrating the Filipino-Chinese community while contributing to Manila’s tourism, cultural, and community-building advocacies.

Through MMCP, we continue to champion a Modern Filipino-Chinese identity—one that is deeply rooted in culture, proud of its heritage, and actively contributing to the growth and development of the communities we call home.

Together, we look forward to creating more meaningful programs, partnerships, and initiatives that connect cultures, empower communities, and elevate Manila as a destination of heritage, diversity, and opportunity.

With us during this meaningful visit:
Director Cristal L. Bagatsing
Department of Tourism, Culture and Arts of Manila

Wilson Ngo Agbayani— Chairman and Founder of MCF and MMCP Organization
Tyrone Tan 陈永祥 — Mr. Chinatown Philippines 2025

Hindi lang ito lumang building. Isa ito sa mga kuwentong buhay pa rin sa Escolta. 🏛️✨

Built in 1914 along Juan Luna Street, El Hogar Filipino was designed by architect Ramon Irureta-Goyena for businessman Don Antonio Melian. More than a century later, its Beaux-Arts façade still reminds us why Escolta was once called Manila's premier business district.
