Metrobank Japan extends more support for those affected by the Tohoku disaster
 
Metrobank Japan announces its charity program in support of the ongoing humanitarian and relief operations for those affected by the recent disasters in Japan. For the month of May, Metrobank Japan will donate a portion of the consolidated service charges collected from its Tokyo and Osaka Branches. This is in addition to the JPY 1,000,000 initially donated by the Bank to the Japanese Red Cross Society.
 
Likewise, its mother organization in the Philippines, the Metrobank Group of Companies, together with its partners, Toyota Motor Philippines Corp. and Mitsui & Co. Pte. Ltd., turned-over PHP 10,000,000 (JPY 20,000,000) through the Philippine National Red Cross to the Japanese Government.
 
The unceasing support of the Metrobank Group to Japan stems from its working relationships/partnerships through joint business ventures with Japanese-owned companies such as the Toyota Motor Corporation, Orix Corporation, Mitsui & Co. Pte. Ltd., and Sumitomo Corporation (Japan). Geared towards strengthening bilateral relations between Japan and the Philippines, the Metrobank Group has always envisioned partnerships as an avenue to promote better understanding, friendship, and cooperation between two nations. The Metrobank Group has embarked on these initiatives to support efforts in Japan as a chance to give back to Japan the goodwill it has extended to the advocacies and to the business of the Group.
