PRRD did realized this on the end of his term. So many China pledges of investment but not even half was fulfilled and harassment in WPS continued. This is a good move by PBBM, he was probably peeved coz Xi pledged during PBBM's state visit to China that we are allowed to fish but after just a few days the CCG was again doing its thing. Great pivot by PBBM from the appeasement style of PRRD w/c did not work.
@Mrkenski In geopolitics we need to understand that we as a Nation of People cannot play it linearly as some of us wanted to. US and China are opposing giants and both of them are just plain BS as far as I'm concern. Take the example of Vietnam and China, though they are ramming each other ships in South China Sea, Vietnam secure one of the biggest trade with china in South East Asia. India, inspite of good relationship with U.S. it was able to secure discounted fuel from Russia. We hope that geopolitics is linear and easy, it's not. I pray that the leadership of the Philippines should learn how to play its card well if we want to emerge winner in the midst of all these turmoil and hypocrisy. God bless all Filipinos here and Abroad🙏
@Michael Goodman pls be reminded of how China reacted before we hailed them to UN arbitration,. They froze tons of banana export shipments from the PH w/c resulting in huge losses no reason was given. That's how China deals w/ the PH regardless if we chose to do good business with them as we usually do. The don't separate business w/ politics We cannot trust them in any way. I really can't blame PBBM for making these EDCA related decisions, he's doing it for the best interest and security of the country. Best hope is that one day Xi realizes his folly w/c I doubt will happen.
The Philippines has really no choice except to tighten their defense. The UNCLOS decision was handed down 7 years ago and no matter what the Philippines asking the Chinese to restrain and respect the Philippines sovereign rights, the Chinese never stop the bullying. Enough is enough, your president made the right decision to stop the Chinese salami slicing tactics. Aligning with Japan is also a crucial for the Philippines - I hope your president will find a way to convince the Japanese to join your cause. Just an advice: this time try to build your military without too much dependent with the United States. The more you can stand up with yourself, the more your allies will respect you.

Bravo Zulu to Political Science Professor Renato De Castro for your insight interview. I am so impressed by the very details answers . I would like to shake the professor Hand for such well intellectual precise view and opinion to the subject matter between our country with US against the continue bullying of China to our fishermen's, our Navy and Coast Guard on our Economic Zone and territorial waters. I would love to invite the professor for a short visit to congratulate him.for a cup of coffee or two? And just perhaps I can learn more from what I already know while serving with the US Navy. You are a very dynamic well sought out thoughts about how our country should not only fully support the current decision of the PBBM regarding (EDCA). Again Thank you professor Renato De Castro on the same note former NSA Secretary Clarita Carlos stated enough is enough with the harassment as we are an independent country been getting constant bullying from China..
I have reviewed the interview of marcos held 2 weeks ago in Davos , Switzerland to seek for answers in his recent action on enhancing EDCA. He said that he wouldn't be doing his job as a philippine president if he didn't raise the issue of our fishermen to fish in the ayungin shoal and that this kept him up at night. Now I know. The Chinese government did not listen to Marcos. Right after the visit of Marcos in China he set up a direct communication line with Xi Jinpeng to resolve issues such as this one but still the Chinese coast guard drove away our fishermen and, we can surmise , Xi Jinpeng didn't do anything either to heed the call of marcos. Plus, those 2 chinese ships tailing a philippine vessel was the final nail on the coffin. This drove marcos to the arms of the americans, presumably. Marcos is a man of his word. He felt insulted by the Chinese for not taking him seriously! Oh man, other world leaders should take marcos more seriously when it is their turn to speak to him!
@@maryjoymamaradlo7205 of course, he thought of the bigger picture. But certainly, he could have been more accommodating to the Chinese if they were only more sensitive to the issue of our territorial sovereignty. A transparent security arrangement in the south china sea could have been agreed with. But still this is not a zero- sum game. A future deal could still be arranged. China's future is in the Indo - Pacific. It is not in their interest to upset the balance of power in this region. The Chinese must engage the Philippines in trade and investment because this is a more effective and lasting strategy . It is to the advantage of the Chinese to engage all the ASEAN members head on. If they want to secure their place in the world the Chinese must beat the Americans in the economic space. Economics will make China stronger in this calculus of power play. China must continue to grow in economic size, political influence and moral sphere. They cannot do otherwise.

When the US left the Phil in the 90's after pintubo eruption, China couldn't be more happier, that's when they aggressively start invading Philippine territory ,..for the longest time we have to tolerate it due to the fact that China is holding a big stick, now the US is back, it zeroes everything and level the playing field. may laban na tayo dahil Phil is always going to be stronger and capable fighting force with the US training and equipment just like WW2 and the Korean War. One thing that Philippines should ensure is they should pursue an aggressive stance against the element that is operating, supporting, funding the Communist rebels in the Phil. After all who do you think is benefiting from Philippines internal conflict. Investigate Org that is publicly against US/ Philippine relation. charge them with treason and send them to jail for long time. Wake up and start training to fight. Mabuhay ang Filipino, Mabuhay ang USA.

Filipino public shall now have the hard time in giving its opinion to US-Philippines militarist approach vs China, sure it will have repercussions in the coming days.
Romancing with China for 5 years and realized it before the end of his (prrd) term that we cannot appease China is a realization too late. Damage is done .
Professor Castro's insight of the Philippines' role in this ever-growing geopolitical world events surrounding the southeast Asian region is starting to make sense. China's rise to world power has made it so arrogant and rude to grab territories from their surrounding neighbors because of their "fantasy based" historical right. Adding insult to injury, they made military bases on all these grabbed territories capable of conducting naval and air power building runways, ports, long range radars and weapons. Chinese encroachment in our territorial waters is beyond diplomatic solution. President Duterte's policy on embracing China and rejecting the US did nothing to stop it from happening. President Marcos went to Beijing a month ago and probably realized that all the protests and appeasement in the world will not stop China from building more bases in our backyard. Professors Castro's assessment in this change of policy in dealing with China is the next logical step.
@Karen @ANC the leaders will not have political will if we dont have the economy to back it up, which Vietnam, Malaysia and Indonesia has. Start with removing the economic restrictions inside the 1987 constitution to support the build up of our forces and remove reliance on an ally.
I commend this DLSU professor for having a very on point, honest and unbiased analysis and take on political matters - so different and so much better from that of Heydarian’s mostly one sided point of view. While I can still sense Karen’s bias against PRRD, i think she did good in this interview.
We NEED our Allies to Defend our territory at the same time an opportunity to improve or enhance our defense capabilities.. We should have drawn the line years ago.. Stop feeding chinas ego, lets face them head on.. Let's continue to modernize our AFP..

Tama the Philippine government should have a political will to secure our exclusive economic zone territory then our Pilipino fishermen can attain peace.
The important point which you do not want to accept is that the appease strategy was not reciprocated with a result that favored the citizens of RP, specifically fishermen. The point is that the weight of the action's effect which is a turnaround & intent to return to the alliance not the length of implementation of friendly policy w/ PRC, as ineffective as it was, describe or define the foreign policy of D30 admin.
yan tama po Japan US is exact example,kaya Duterte was really mistaken or misundermind the calculations of bad behavior of china. Game changing against china is must.
One thing for sure both armed forces of this two countries will face their enemies jointly together using those philippine bases so a perfected coordination on both side must be initiated once the war started this was a real shoulder to shoulder action.
@@无限浩瀚 Better than having ccp in here. Dont wanna live life depending on social credit, yall cant even complain about your Gov cause you know, minus points right? sucks to be you.
President Marcos' father, the late President Ferdinand Marcos, Sr. was Second Lt. of the Philippine Arny during WW2 and he fought side by side with the Americans.
It is a part of foreign policy to guard our own territory which is the Chinese naval army did not recognized our sovereignty and we have to show our sincerity to push thru our rights and we will not remain in silence for their aggressiveness. Phil American joint military agreement much better to defend and proteçt our territory and to avoid abuses illegal claim of other country.
Pansamanta la lng ang bases ng us sa pilipinas habang nandito ang bases nila dapat palakasin natin ang ating military para maipag tangol naman natin ang pilipinas
While Duterte was very good domestically he was out of his depth internationally. The fact was he really did pivot away from the US toward play off both sides off each other. To give Duterte any credit for this shift is wrong
besides, you cannot forsake the more than 1 million filipinos in the usa compared to the almost non in china except in hongkong & macau whimare only ocws...

Salute to you and more power to your program...
Reply to Melvin Sta.rita: Filipinos can learn to love the Chinese? We already have a taste of what it's like to have Chinese masters. I cannot forget the soy sauce advertisement where the Chinese were having a party and the camera focused on the Filipina maid looking on pitifully by the stairs. That stuck in my mind because I couldn't understand why they were treating her that way. I have never observed such meanness. I didn't know about racism then. The only Chinese I knew then was the one who owned a store in town. He was all business. I didn't see anything negative about him, at least, none that I've witnessed. He wasn't friendly, either. At school, my Chinese classmates didn't socialise with us, not even a "hi" or even a glance. I didn't mind. I put it down to cultural and lingual differences. I had Chinese friends at work who frankly admitted that their family won't let them marry Filipinos. Again, I didn't feel insulted. I just put it down to cultural differences. Then Filipino domestic helpers in Hong Kong became popular. That's when I noticed that my Chinese co-workers view me as an inferior, although I am not a domestic helper. I have never felt such disdain from anyone just because I'm Filipino. There are some good Chinese, I'm sure. But with their godless society whose mantra is "Might is right" , "Survival of the fittest", "Rule of the jungle", how will hapless Filipinos fare when they rule over us? Don't waste your time convincing me that they will treat us as equals. They've already shown their true colours. Their prosperity has given them a superiority complex and made them arrogant and spiteful. Just read the comments from the wumaos of how lowly they think of Filipinos. With no belief in an afterlife and no consequences (punishment and reward), what incentive do they have to be good to their fellow human beings? Only because they expect benefits in return? Do they live only for themselves? "Might is right!" ... "Survival of the fittest!"... "Rule of the jungle!"
Challenging China politically is out of the question, what we need is bolstering our military present in our borders especially in WPS so that the unilateral exploration would be feasible. However, all these are impossible because we dont have THE budget like the US. The previous administration have done there part to improve our military by procuring military equipment while appeasing the China, thus all of those are inadequate. For sure the exportation industry such as the plantain will be heavily affected the most by these decision since China is one of our big costumer.
It's not normal the Chinese coast guard patroling in the Philippines exclusive economic zone territory. The Philippines navy should radio challenge Chinese coast guard and shove away in our exclusive economic zone territory.

With due respect to the opinion of the good professor, I beg to disagree to his conclusion that the Marcos administration adopted the Duterte administration insofar as our relation with China is concerned. President Duterte was pro-China and even adopted the SINOVAC vaccine while President BBM is pro-US. And rightly so, because, during WW2, he fought side by side with the Americans. being a PA Second Lieutenant.

Propaganda lang nila yan. Sinabi na ni BBM sa Davos na mahalaga ang China dahil top trade partner natin ito. Inaayawan na ng mundo ang America dahil bankrupt na, nanggegyera na lang alam. Bakit pa tayo pauuto sa Amerika eh laos na, lagi ngang talo sa gyera ito. The US can't do anything anyway, it lost its wars, it even lost to Vietnam, & the Americans ran for dear life to the Kabul airport chased by the Talibans. HAHAHA
Now the Americans are hiding behind the Ukrainians & use them as cannon fodder. They plan to hide behind the Filipinos too & use us as cannon fodder because they fear the Chinese like they fear the Russians HAHAHA
*TRACK
Salamat sa united state of America malaking tulong sa pilipinas🙏
Duterte is worst. End of discussion!
New battleground for USA and china. Just like ukraine.
Bravo sulu finally many of brave country men's have a courage to stand and speech for our right over west pilipine sea
I agree what he's saying.
Duts: Papel lang yan.
Dedees: Tama.
J.Carpio: Anong papel? Yan ang nagsasabi na atin ang WPS.
Dedees: Cge makipaggyera ka sa tsina. Isang bomba lang tunaw ang Pilipinas.
Duts: Gusto mo debate tayo. Pareho naman tayong abogado eh.
J.Carpio: Tinatanggap ko ang hamon mo.
Roque: Ang sabi ni Duts ako nalang ang makipagdebate kay J.Carpio. Umatras na siya.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
J.Carpio: Anong papel? Yan ang nagsasabi na atin ang WPS.
Unang una walang WPS...kaparehas lang yan ng 9-dash line ng China....parehas na imaginary line....hindi kinikilala ng international community...ang katawagan dyan sa buong mundo eh South China Sea
pwede mong sabihin amin ang WPS kaparehas din ng China na kanila ang 9-dash line
wala ring court ruling o anumang ruling na nagbibigay ng teritoryo sa Pinas at kumikilala sa WPS lalong lalo na ang mga disputed territories ng Spratlys.
bias reporter as usual
hirap na hirap ipaliwanag ni prof kay karen yong unang topic, ipinipilit kasi ni karen para marinig niya yong gusto niyang marinig eh.
Karen, you did great with this interview. This is the first time we're on the same page.
When the US left the Phil in the 90's after pintubo eruption, China couldn't be more happier, that's when they aggressively start invading Philippine territory ,..for the longest time we have to tolerate it due to the fact that China is holding a big stick, now the US is back, it zeroes everything and level the playing field. may laban na tayo dahil Phil is always going to be stronger and capable fighting force with the US training and equipment just like WW2 and the Korean War. One thing that Philippines should ensure is they should pursue an aggressive stance against the element that is operating, supporting, funding the Communist rebels in the Phil. After all who do you think is benefiting from Philippines internal conflict. Investigate Org that is publicly against US/ Philippine relation. charge them with treason and send them to jail for long time. Wake up and start training to fight. Mabuhay ang Filipino, Mabuhay ang USA.
to stand your own will and your own country and defend your own family and place…ipaglaban natin anong meron sa atin po, kung tayo sinasakop ng dahan2x yong bansa lalo na sa karagatan natin po
Tama magigiting Kong kababayan
Tama Po kam
Saludo Po ako sa iyong sinabi sama Po ako ipagtangol Ang ating lupang sinilangan
Hahaaa napansin ko lang sa interview na to: sana dahan dahanin nyo lang po ang pagtatanong mam Karen.. o patapusin nyo po Muna ang explanation para Hindi kayo nagsasapawan magsalita .. hehee
That is Ms Davilas trade mark eversince. Agad putulin Ang nagsasalita kapag di umaayon sa kanyang pinupunto kaya Kung minsan nababara he he
@@armandofrancisco6197 wow...hahaaa nag guest pa sila
Nakakainis sya. I cannot listen to her.
Filipino public shall now have the hard time in giving its opinion to US-Philippines militarist approach vs China, sure it will have repercussions in the coming days.
Romancing with China for 5 years and realized it before the end of his (prrd) term that we cannot appease China is a realization too late. Damage is done .
Professor Castro's insight of the Philippines' role in this ever-growing geopolitical world events surrounding the southeast Asian region is starting to make sense. China's rise to world power has made it so arrogant and rude to grab territories from their surrounding neighbors because of their "fantasy based" historical right. Adding insult to injury, they made military bases on all these grabbed territories capable of conducting naval and air power building runways, ports, long range radars and weapons.
Chinese encroachment in our territorial waters is beyond diplomatic solution. President Duterte's policy on embracing China and rejecting the US did nothing to stop it from happening. President Marcos went to Beijing a month ago and probably realized that all the protests and appeasement in the world will not stop China from building more bases in our backyard. Professors Castro's assessment in this change of policy in dealing with China is the next logical step.
We must remember karen is anti marcos and always oppose the decission of pbbm, we should ignore her!!!
Then stop watching her..stupid
@Karen @ANC the leaders will not have political will if we dont have the economy to back it up, which Vietnam, Malaysia and Indonesia has. Start with removing the economic restrictions inside the 1987 constitution to support the build up of our forces and remove reliance on an ally.
I commend this DLSU professor for having a very on point, honest and unbiased analysis and take on political matters - so different and so much better from that of Heydarian’s mostly one sided point of view. While I can still sense Karen’s bias against PRRD, i think she did good in this interview.
The Trouble is Philippine government officials have reduced the size of the military since1987 until 2021.
When a journalist should be objective... Karen doesn't.. hahaha she can not process the idea of continuity... 😂
She’s a ding a ling, her voice is annoying.
😂😂😂he realized? What? How can someone realized if in the first place he knows it? 😂😂Nice try.
the Filipinos Heroes🗿🗿
you know every Filipinos want there heroes back😢
We NEED our Allies to Defend our territory at the same time an opportunity to improve or enhance our defense capabilities..
We should have drawn the line years ago.. Stop feeding chinas ego, lets face them head on.. Let's continue to modernize our AFP..
Tama ang desisyon ni pbbm. Lagi nalang tayong binubully ng china.
Propaganda lang nila yan. Sinabi na ni BBM sa Davos na mahalaga ang China dahil top trade partner natin ito. Inaayawan na ng mundo ang America dahil bankrupt na, nanggegyera na lang alam. Bakit pa tayo pauuto sa Amerika eh laos na, lagi ngang talo sa gyera ito. The US can't do anything anyway, it lost its wars, it even lost to Vietnam, & the Americans ran for dear life to the Kabul airport chased by the Talibans. HAHAHA
Now the Americans are hiding behind the Ukrainians & use them as cannon fodder. They plan to hide behind the Filipinos too & use us as cannon fodder because they fear the Chinese like they fear the Russians HAHAHA
Wala kasing political will yung pinalitan PBBM pag dating sa China
Tama the Philippine government should have a political will to secure our exclusive economic zone territory then our Pilipino fishermen can attain peace.
Pro pilipino ito, galing mo Sir
The important point which you do not want to accept is that the appease strategy was not reciprocated with a result that favored the citizens of RP, specifically fishermen. The point is that the weight of the action's effect which is a turnaround & intent to return to the alliance not the length of implementation of friendly policy w/ PRC, as ineffective as it was, describe or define the foreign policy of D30 admin.
yes! a political will to stand in our ground!! LUPANG HINIRANG, DUYAN KA NANG MAGITING, SA MANLULUPIG, DI KA PASISIIL!! mabuhay ang pilipinas!!
Karen you are more better than your guest. With that thank you, you finally acknowledged Pbbm .
yan tama po Japan US is exact example,kaya Duterte was really mistaken or misundermind the calculations of bad behavior of china. Game changing against china is must.
🇵🇭 🇺🇸 💪
Yes, sir is good analyse.
We should have a joint exploration with a US company. Let us see how would China react...
One thing for sure both armed forces of this two countries will face their enemies jointly together using those philippine bases so a perfected coordination on both side must be initiated once the war started this was a real shoulder to shoulder action.
Japan, South Korea, Australia, British, Philippines, US combined.
Siguro panahon na para maging army reserve.
The Philippines should assert the arbitral ruling and secure the Philippines exclusive economic zone territory which will be back up by US navy.
Is America the father of your country? Do you want to continue the era of kneeling and being a slave to others

@@无限浩瀚 Better than having ccp in here. Dont wanna live life depending on social credit, yall cant even complain about your Gov cause you know, minus points right? sucks to be you.
Kneeling.. lol Isn’t that your culture in China😅 communism
Then sir who are you spokesperson of USA
President Marcos' father, the late President Ferdinand Marcos, Sr. was Second Lt. of the Philippine Arny during WW2 and he fought side by side with the Americans.
Nakakatakot....
It is a part of foreign policy to guard our own territory which is the Chinese naval army did not recognized our sovereignty and we have to show our sincerity to push thru our rights and we will not remain in silence for their aggressiveness. Phil
American joint military agreement much better to defend and proteçt our territory and to avoid abuses illegal claim of other country.
I believe on the policy of PBBM. Mabuhay PBBM. Mabuhay Ang Pilipinas!!!!!!!
Ok
Hindi natin kayang magisa ang china. Kailangan natin ang America para sa ating seguridad at sa tulong. We need the help of the U. S.
Pansamanta la lng ang bases ng us sa pilipinas habang nandito ang bases nila dapat palakasin natin ang ating military para maipag tangol naman natin ang pilipinas
"the analyst there sounds like a spokesperson of China". Well said professor!
Great! well said Dr. de Castro. Thanks!
Good job MR president MARCOS JR.👍👍👍👍💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
They believed only in the language of force
For me Karen D. is one of those unti Marcos.
There should also be defense facilitaties againts China's hypersonic & ballistic missiles
NAKU NEGATIVE N NAMAN ITO, HANAPBUHAY TALAGA
this is 2 months(?) ago, so you're still in the Philippines😁😁😁😁😁
I am exiting now I dont want to hear warmonger
While Duterte was very good domestically he was out of his depth internationally. The fact was he really did pivot away from the US toward play off both sides off each other. To give Duterte any credit for this shift is wrong
besides, you cannot forsake the more than 1 million filipinos in the usa compared to the almost non in china except in hongkong & macau whimare only ocws...
Nalito si karen sa continuety hahah ako rin mabuti nalang malinaw mag paliwanag si profesor
sad to say that we are only capable of drawing.... I guess
not only drawing...but also doing ting ting ting in tiktok and maritesizing!hahaha
Favor dn ako sau Prof. to your stand and the stand of president PBBM...
Tma lang yan👍🇵🇭🇱🇷💪
PBBM is doing good defend what is supposed to be our territory.
Karen, my utmost admiration to your witts and stands on the greatest interview that you have with International Security Analyst Prof. Renato de Castro.
He was brilliant in analyzing the 2 presidents and how he defended the continuety of the policy on China & America.. You were brilliant to keep the interview lively and interesting. Salute to you and more power to your program...

Reply to Melvin Sta.rita:
Filipinos can learn to love the Chinese? We already have a taste of what it's like to have Chinese masters. I cannot forget the soy sauce advertisement where the Chinese were having a party and the camera focused on the Filipina maid looking on pitifully by the stairs. That stuck in my mind because I couldn't understand why they were treating her that way. I have never observed such meanness. I didn't know about racism then. The only Chinese I knew then was the one who owned a store in town. He was all business. I didn't see anything negative about him, at least, none that I've witnessed. He wasn't friendly, either. At school, my Chinese classmates didn't socialise with us, not even a "hi" or even a glance. I didn't mind. I put it down to cultural and lingual differences. I had Chinese friends at work who frankly admitted that their family won't let them marry Filipinos. Again, I didn't feel insulted. I just put it down to cultural differences. Then Filipino domestic helpers in Hong Kong became popular. That's when I noticed that my Chinese co-workers view me as an inferior, although I am not a domestic helper. I have never felt such disdain from anyone just because I'm Filipino. There are some good Chinese, I'm sure. But with their godless society whose mantra is "Might is right" , "Survival of the fittest", "Rule of the jungle", how will hapless Filipinos fare when they rule over us? Don't waste your time convincing me that they will treat us as equals. They've already shown their true colours. Their prosperity has given them a superiority complex and made them arrogant and spiteful. Just read the comments from the wumaos of how lowly they think of Filipinos.
With no belief in an afterlife and no consequences (punishment and reward), what incentive do they have to be good to their fellow human beings? Only because they expect benefits in return? Do they live only for themselves? "Might is right!" ... "Survival of the fittest!"... "Rule of the jungle!"
What commercial are you talking about?
Challenging China politically is out of the question, what we need is bolstering our military present in our borders especially in WPS so that the unilateral exploration would be feasible. However, all these are impossible because we dont have THE budget like the US. The previous administration have done there part to improve our military by procuring military equipment while appeasing the China, thus all of those are inadequate. For sure the exportation industry such as the plantain will be heavily affected the most by these decision since China is one of our big costumer.
Continuation of diplomatic protest on Chinese bullying probably is what the guest is talking about…
Alis na ako guys titira na lang me canada 🇨🇦
tama ang decision ng pres.na manatili ang US sa pinas
Good move by president marcos eto ang first good news ko na narinig ky mahal na pangulo natin ngayon.
It's not normal the Chinese coast guard patroling in the Philippines exclusive economic zone territory. The Philippines navy should radio challenge Chinese coast guard and shove away in our exclusive economic zone territory.
ASEAN should dismember Philippines for not staying Neutral !!!
So proud of our Governor Manny Mamba!Ama ng Cagayan Valley .mahal kami niyan at hinde kami pabayaan.Mabuhay Gov. MANNY MAMBA Forever
Your Governor is a Chinese Puppet
PHILIPPINES 🇵🇭 & UNITED STATES OF AMERICA 🇺🇸 if Everyone go back to the HISTORY, WE HAVE MONEY COINS 🇺🇸 & 🇵🇭 that’s why we have a very tight relationship no matter what!!!
USA! USA! USA!

THIS IS NOT A CONTINUATION!!!!!! PBBM CHANGING THE DECISIONS WHAT PREVIOUS GOVERNMENT DONE. PBBM IS ON THE RIGHT TRACK. PH ALWAYS NEEDS US FORCES .
The Philippines SHOULD START SINKING THE chinese SHIPS. Like Indonesia, South Koreans, and the Latin American Navies.
With due respect to the opinion of the good professor, I beg to disagree to his conclusion that the Marcos administration adopted the Duterte administration insofar as our relation with China is concerned. President Duterte was pro-China and even adopted the SINOVAC vaccine while President BBM is pro-US. And rightly so, because, during WW2, he fought side by side with the Americans. being a PA Second Lieutenant.
not only protect the pilipino, also
The Taiwan, in case China invade
Taiwan .
