New Zealand Prime Minister John Key said they are increasing opportunities for Filipino students to study in New Zealand.
Key, who is in the Philippines for the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) meetings, said New Zealand's demand for Filipino workers particularly in the construction and health care industry also continues.
As flights from the Philippines to New Zealand to start next month, Key believes this will bolster tourism between both countries.
Meanwhile, Key is hoping other member-economies of APEC, including the Philippines, would join Trans-Pacific Partnership Agreement (TPP).
A champion of free trade, Key said joining the TPP produced good results for their country and the nations they signed the agreement with.
