THE GOVERNMENT is mulling over plans to boost its partnership with New Zealand and beef up the exchange of expertise and technology between the two countries, according to Trade Secretary Cesar V. Purisima.
The government is also looking to new Zealand as a source of raw materials for Philippine export products, he said.
Purisima explained that with tighter cooperation between the two countries, local small and medium enterprises stand to benefit from the technology exchange by teaming up with New Zealand companies.
The locals may also expect market encounters with SMEs in the South Pacific nation.
"Further trade ties with New Zealand would boost our program for SMEs, especially for those engaged in food processing and other export products," he said.
