Euro-Asia Tourism School of Business, S.L. (Euro-Asia) proudly announces a transformative collaboration with the City of Malabon University (CMU) and the Malabon City Government, aimed at advancing international education, tourism innovation, and public-sector cooperation between Spain and the Philippines.
This collaboration was formalized during a high-level visit to Euro-Asia’s Madrid headquarters by key officials from Malabon City, including:
Dr. Alexander Rosete, City Administrator
Ms. Joan Rosete, Executive Assistant IV, City Mayor’s Office
Ms. Catherine Laracas, Head of the Tourism Department
Mr. Ron Tongol, Chief, MDRRMC
Mr. Carlo Aquino, City Assessor’s Office
Atty. Ana Juanito, CPA, City Accountant
Dr. Glen De Leon, President, CMU
A major focus of the visit was the joint planning for the Madrid 2 Malabon Tourism Summit 2025, to be held in Madrid during the last week of July 2025. This summit will gather tourism leaders, educators, legal professionals, and policymakers from both Spain and the Philippines to explore pathways for sustainable tourism development, public-private collaboration, and international academic exchange.
The presence of these high-ranking officials was crucial in ensuring that each department aligns its efforts to support the Malabon delegation and the summit’s objectives. Their discussions centered on defining their roles in logistics, policy coordination, cultural presentation, financial oversight, and academic partnerships—each playing a vital part in the success of the event and its long-term impact.
Adding to the significance of the occasion, Hon. Mayor Jeannie Sandoval addressed the Euro-Asia team and visiting delegation via video conference. Her message underscored Malabon’s commitment to becoming a key player in international tourism education and local innovation.
Equally noteworthy was the live video conference appearance of Dr. Desmond Wee, Vice President of Euro-Asia Tourism School of Business. Dr. Wee welcomed the delegates and shared Euro-Asia’s strategic vision for global academic collaboration and its commitment to providing world-class training in tourism and business education.
Beyond the summit, this collaboration includes potential:
• Joint research initiatives between CMU and Euro-Asia faculty
• Student and faculty exchange programs
• Development of dual-degree programs and specialized certifications
• Implementation of the “smart school” concept to enhance learning through technology and cross-border connectivity
This visit marks a pivotal step in Euro-Asia’s mission to bridge cultures through education and build meaningful partnerships with Philippine local governments and academic institutions. The momentum generated here will empower students, uplift communities, and foster a new era of global cooperation.
