The Philippine Consulate in Dubai reminds those who have secured their slots for the meeting with President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. on November 29, 2023, at Sheikh Maktoum Hall, Dubai World Trade Center, to prepare essential items for entry. The event, scheduled from 5:00 P.M. to 8:00 P.M., is a significant occasion for the Filipino community in the United Arab Emirates.
In an email sent to those with confirmed resitration, attendees were told to present a confirmation email with a QR code and their original valid passport to the Registration Personnel. It is crucial to arrive early, as doors open at 3:00PM and close at 4:30PM, to allow time for security checks and registration.
The event’s security protocols are stringent. Entry is subject to appropriate security clearance, and the ticket, which is personal and non-transferrable, has a unique QR code per person. For security reasons, certain items, including bags, umbrellas, selfie sticks, posters, banners, placards, and streamers, are not permitted inside the venue. The consulate advises attendees to adhere to the Filipiniana or smart casual dress code.
Those interested had to register online through the official link (https://meetfilcom2023.timetap.com/) and received an email confirmation with a QR code, serving as their entry pass.
