ANZCham proudly participated in the 8th Anniversary Celebration of the Philippine Anti-Red Tape Authority (ARTA) on 22 May 2026, underscoring the Chamber’s ongoing commitment to the Philippine government’s ease-of-doing-business agenda.
The anniversary highlighted ARTA’s significant contributions to regulatory reform, notably its ISO 9001:2015 certification and the advancement of digital transformation initiatives across government agencies. These efforts have been instrumental in optimizing public service delivery and enhancing the country’s operational transparency.
As a valued government partner, ARTA’s contributions were recently recognized by ANZCham with the Bridges of Progress Award during our 45th Annual General Membership Meeting. The partnership was also institutionalized through a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) signed in September 2024, aligning both organizations toward the shared objective of reducing red tape and fostering a more efficient, business-friendly environment.
