Good day! Previously, the PCOO would release statements on how much each presidential trip abroad would cost. It would also include a total count of the members of the delegation, as well as their names (especially the Cabinet members). I would like to get the same information for the current administration, for each trip abroad since Duterte became president. Looking forward to the data that you will share. Thank you!

Dear Ms Sabillo, Thank you for your request for information on: 1) the cost of the official state visits; 2) the total count of the delegation; and 3) the list of names of the delegation. PCOO tried to locate the requested information and respond to your request on time. However, the requested information is not in our custody or any of PCOO’s attached agencies or offices. Hence, we have to deny this FOI request. The appropriate office that can provide you with the requested information is the Office of the President (OP).
