00:00 French Ambassador to the Philippines helped the youth when she visited Cebu.

00:06 The Embassy also opened the opportunity for students to join the Student Exchange Program.

00:13 This is the surprise of Jessie Atienza of PTV Cebu.

00:17 Even though Cebu was only a short period of time,

00:24 French Ambassador to the Philippines, Her Excellency Marie Fontanel, did not miss the opportunity to help students of Cebu Doctors University,

00:34 one of the universities in the country with a high passing rate in the field of medicine.

00:39 She shared the good relationship between France and the Philippines and how it will be continued.

00:46 The students were also given the opportunity to ask Ambassador Fontanel.

00:52 As Ambassador of my country, I have to understand your country.

00:56 And if I stick to officials and institutions discussion, it's of course key, but it's not the whole spectrum of your country.

01:06 So I have to meet as many people as I can and of course the youth is key in a country.

01:13 If I don't connect with the youth, I will miss an important part of my job.

01:21 Ambassador Fontanel also helped the administration of the university.

01:25 She discussed how she can help those who have finished their studies in the field of medicine and international studies,

01:32 who will be given the opportunity in France.

01:35 It's very fruitful, the visit. We learned a lot, what they want with regards to our students.

01:42 We also informed them about what we can offer also.

01:45 In fact, they are offering their teachers to teach our students and then in our part, we will open up these classes, French classes,

01:57 and integrate it hopefully to our courses.

02:00 We really explore the avenues for having more cooperation from a university like Cebu Doxos with French universities

02:11 to organize student exchanges for students that could go to France to study.

02:16 From PTV Cebu, Jesse Atienza for Pambansang TV in Bagong, Philippines.
