International Transport Forum, PHL in talks for possible membership

The Department of Transportation is in talks to join the International Transport Forum (ITF), ITF Secretary-General Young Tae Kim said.

“We discussed the current questions in the mobility sector in the Philippines, but more broadly, we also discussed the possible joining of the Philippines into the ITF community,” Mr. Kim told BusinessWorld on Tuesday, referring to the outcome of his April 24 meeting with Transportation Secretary Jaime J. Bautista.

The ITF serves as a policy think tank for all modes of transport. It is an arm of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development.

According to the ITF, only eight out of its 64 member countries are from Asia, including Cambodia, China, Japan, South Korea, and India.

Last year, Cambodia became the first Southeast Asian country to join the ITF after being unanimously voted in by the membership during the annual summit in Leipzig, Germany.
