Good day,

I am Prinz Magtulis, researcher for the Financial Times, the global business paper based in London.

We are currently writing a new report on Philippines-China relations considering developments related to the matter. Your good office sent us data last November (please see attached files), and they have been very useful. 

However, we would like to ask your office, if you have updated data, of same kind and format, for the entire 2018 since the initial figures you sent us then was only from January to October? We would appreciate if you could share it with us.

Thank you!
