Advancing the Philippines as a Premier Investment Destination

The Arangkada Philippines Project (TAPP) is the advocacy and thought-leadership arm of the Joint Foreign Chambers of the Philippines. Established in 2010, we unite the foreign business community, government, and policymakers behind reforms that attract investment, create jobs, and sustain inclusive growth.

Through evidence-based research, high-level convening, and sustained engagement with Congress and the bureaucracy, Arangkada turns business insight into national policy — across the seven sectors that matter most to the Philippine economy.
