Cecile Guidote-Alvarez: How long have you been in this country?
Ephraim Ben Matityahu: 13 months in Manila, 4 months on EDSA, all together 17 months in the Philippines.
Ephraim Ben Matityahu, successor to Menashe Bar-On: From Ethiopia, I came to the Philippines.
Ephraim Ben Matityahu, successor to Menashe Bar-On: The Philippines is founded on four pillars: one is music, one is food, one is dance, and the last one is taking pictures, but over time, I learned that there is a fifth pillar which, I think, is very, very crucial and very, very fundamental is the Filipino smile. This is one of the friendliest countries I ever spent time in and you feel it. I really have fun here.
Ephraim Ben Matityahu, successor to Menashe Bar-On: There is a beautiful synergy between Philippines of today pushing toward the future and where Israel is today and can be really a very good partner.
