I live in an area of the US with a huge Filipino community. It’s given me a major appreciation for Filipino culture and cuisine, and all the Filipino people I’ve met have been just amazing people. I’ve had Filipino friends, so many of my classmates back in HS were Filipino, I even dated a Filipina once. Nothing but good things to say about the Filipino people.

The USA wants all businesses with China alone. But Canada will destroy the US game plan. PM Trudo did not understand the US and allies' game plan. The US need Indian, Japanese, South Korean, Australian and Asean soldiers to fight against the mighty Chinese and is pushing to use India and others as Ukraine. India is not Germany or South Korea or Japan. But at the same time, The US needs Chinese money to fund the Ukraine proxy war(As per Sen. Rand Paul).

Philippine should impose Ban on Elder and put Age Limit For Politician! 😂😂😂

[@euphegeniadoubtfire1364]

Most Filipinos do not realize how much is really at stake for their country with all this militarization done by the United States. Allow me to explain why Filipinos should stop taking stupid pills from Uncle Sam and start asking questions why the US government is starting to acclimatize the Filipino public of the presence of its Missile Weapon Systems. Under the Pacific Deterrence Initiative masterplan of the US armed forces in the Indo Pacific (as reported by Japan's Nikkei Asia March 2021) the United States (long before local media started making noise about how EDCA is beneficial to the PH) has approved nearly 30 Billion USD for what it calls an “ANTI CHINA MISSILE NETWORK" to be deployed on the "FIRST ISLAND CHAIN" nations which starts from Okinawa, Japan to Taiwan and of course the last piece of the puzzle to complete the encirclement of China, the Philippines. Furthermore, it is noteworthy to mention that the United States did not renew its commitment to abide by the (INF) Intermediate Nuclear Forces Treaty which bans the deployment of Intermediate Range Tactical Nuclear Capable Missiles under the 500 to 5000 kilometers range category. The deployment of these missiles is further confirmed by a follow up report released by the Rand Corporation, a US government funded think tank, that published the report 1st Quarter of 2022 with the title: "Ground Based Intermediate Range Missiles in the Indo Pacific: Assessing the positions of US Allies in the Region". Knowing that the United States is no longer regulated to follow the ban imposed by the Intermediate Nuclear Forces Treaty, the very important question that should be asked is...will Filipinos allow the deployment of Tactical Nuclear Capable Missiles aimed at China from locations within the territory of the Philippines?...knowing that the presence of these missiles increases the risks that China may retaliate with no less the same lethal weaponry? Imagine what the collateral damage will be to the Philippines in the event of an exchange of such lethal weaponry. More importantly, all that talk about how the Philippines will have a say on how these bases/EDCA sites will be used by the US Military is nothing more than pillow talk and western media propaganda because of the long standing policy of the United States government to neither confirm nor deny the presence of Tactical Nuclear Weapons on any of its bases on foreign soil.

China vows to never let it happen again and slowly but surely started building up their economy and military. They understand the hard lesson that it is necessary to negotiate within the position of strength rather than weakness.

Let these sheltered gen z keyboard warriors in their parents homes do what they do best, warmonger and fall into a trap that will see them all killed in action after being force conscripted, but for us with common sense and more experience and years, maintaining peaceful lives is the only viable solution, even if it means moving to do so. and if you're not in the PH and are in the US or another allied country that might be attacked due to this conflict, think about doing something similar. We ordinary people shouldn't be made to be nothing more than conscripted pawns in these wars of the elites. These governments didn't give birth to us, they hardly if ever support us in our lives, and shouldn't be the cause for us to die. Only those we love and care about (our families) will ever extend unconditional love to us in any circumstance, not the govt. Everyone else will sadly only be interested in trying to gain something from us-- no one will value your own life and right to life more than yourself and those who know and love you. now is the time to talk things over with your loved ones and have an action plan and route to escape these oncoming troubles, even if it's a rough one.

Deterrence with military show of force is always seen as provocation by the other side. Some people never learn.

[@AkitaMix]

Deterrence works. Russia aint touching Ukraine's neighbors exactly because of deterrence.

The governor should stand and protect his fishermen from the Chinese bullies. The only way he can protect them, is to support EDCA. That's the only solution to shoo away the bullies. Enough of being (playing) safe here. This is the reality on the ground and I pity my countrymen because of this China bullying. We're at the mercy of this Chinese bullies to catch fishes in our own fishing grounds. Stand up for your rights kabayan!

Why don't you create a BBC News Filipino service? Filipinos make up a huge global diaspora, overall there are more than 110 million Filipinos in the PH and a further 12 million living in the diaspora (I used to be one of them, a British-Filipino). Quality news is lacking in the Filipino language. Its one of the largest Asian minority groups in the Western world (in the US, Canada, the UK, Ireland, Spain and Italy), and in the Middle East (1 million live in Saudi Arabia, 500,000 live between UAE, Qatar, Kuwait and Bahrain). Filipinos are also one of the main regional migrant groups within the Far East, with large minorities present in Hong Kong, Macau, Japan, Taiwan, Singapore and Malaysia. You've opened an Indonesian desk, but the geographic reach of Indonesian is globally smaller than that of Filipino. With all these developing news and tensions here, the Filipino global diaspora need a diversity of news sources. Fluent (native level) English is not understood by a majority of Filipinos. Most can understand intermediate English due to being forced to learn it in school, but don't use it the moment they leave it, though many can pronounce it well. The biggest misunderstanding about this country and its people is that its a fully 'English speaking' country - Its as English speaking as India or Nigeria is - its used even less so due to reindigenization and an anti-English language bias in society). The Filipino diaspora needs quality and factual news, noting the near-national blackout of any detailed international news within the country, and lack of any meaningful news from the Philippines for the diaspora. A BBC Filipino desk can help bridge those gaps in news in the Filipino language. Please consider it. It will be one of the major online news sources for the Filipino diaspora if you open 'BBC News Filipino'.
