The Philippines has filed a diplomatic protest with China, its foreign minister said on Monday, over Beijing's installation last year of anti-aircraft and anti-missile systems on its manmade islands in the disputed South China Sea. The protest note was sent to the Chinese embassy in December, after confirmation of a report from the US-based Center for Strategic and International Studies about a weapons buildup on seven artificial islands in the Spratlys. http://www.channelnewsasia.com/news...tic-protest-over-south-china-sea/3442404.html

Did Duterte just wake up from a bad dream? Obviously 24 billion dollars in bad investments is peanuts considering they are selling away their SCS territories and the economic infiltration by Xi Jinping will bring millions of male commie tiongs to reside and procreate half-breeds in their Failippines.

in return for lodging the protest, Duterte received an US$8.7 billion aid package from Japan http://thestandard.com.ph/opinion/c...el-rosario/226804/behind-abe-s-8-7-b-aid.html

He's milking the regional countries to the best of his advantage on the SCS issue. So if the Chinks will increase their aid in the forthcoming weeks/months, he'll switch tone again and say: let them continue to build to enhance the security in this region.

What's wrong with collecting more money :smile:

LKY is rumoured to have made $$.$$$ by selling Spore to any MNC that wanted a cheap place to set up a factory. In those days China was still a communist country & closed to the west. Countries like Thailand & Malaysia were still under developed

Philippines defense minister says China arms on islands worrying

China's recent installation of weapons on artificial islands in the disputed South China Sea was "very troubling", the Philippines' defense minister said on Tuesday, after Manila quietly protested against Beijing's activities.

The Philippine foreign ministry sent a note verbale to the Chinese embassy last month after confirming a report from the U.S.-based Center for Strategic and International Studies about China's arms buildup in the Spratlys.

"The actions of China in militarizing those disputed features are very troubling," Delfin Lorenzana said in a statement.

"They do not square with the Chinese government's rhetoric that its purpose is peaceful and friendly."


Lorenzana took a stronger line than Foreign Secretary Perfecto Yasay, who refrained on Tuesday from criticizing China, but said the issue had to be handled carefully and the public should know "we are not sleeping on the job".

"When something happens that can pose us some kind of threats to our sovereignty rights we issue a note verbale so we can talk about it and make sure it is properly addressed," he told ANC television.

With billions of dollars of potential Chinese trade and investment at stake, the Philippines has a difficult balancing act in upholding its sovereignty claims while staying on the better terms President Rodrigo Duterte has established with historic rival China.

Mischief Reef, one of the islands where China has modern weapons, is located within the Philippines' 200 nautical mile exclusive economic zone.
