                    [Summary] => 

The Republic of The Gambia celebrates its 42nd anniversary of independence from British rule today.


Despite the geographical distance between the two countries, the Philippines and Gambia have become close allies. The Gambia is some 9,000 miles away from the country, situated along the Atlantic Coast of Western Africa.

The efforts initiated in June 2005 by the establishment of an honorary consulate in Manila and, even more significantly, by the state visit of President Alhaji Dr. Yahya A.J.J. Jammeh have borne fruit in the bilateral relations of the two countries.
