US Vice President Kamala Harris has traveled to the Philippines for a visit designed to demonstrate Washington’s support for Manila and other Southeast Asian allies in their territorial disputes with China.
Harris arrived on Sunday evening to a red-carpet welcome in Manila after attending the Asia-Pacific Economic Forum in Thailand. She’s scheduled to meet with President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. on Monday for talks on strengthening security and economic ties, then fly on Tuesday to the Palawan island chain, which lies adjacent to disputed waters of the South China Sea.
The above is copied from TRE. Yes, Kamala Harris is going to the Philippines to counter Beijing's claims of the islands in the South China Sea.
Harris is going to tell Marcos that the US once claimed all the main islands of the Philippines. This is something that China cannot compete and pale in comparison. The US once owned the Philippines, colonised the whole nation, all belonged to the Americans. Can China counter that?
Not only the US once claimed the whole of the Philippines, Japan also claimed the whole of the Philippines in WW2. And another thing that China cannot compete with the Americans and the Japanese, both the Americans and Japanese also committed war crimes and genocides against the Philippines during their occupations.
Step aside China, you are no match for the Americans and the Japanese. The Americans and the Philippines are making a come back to claim the Philippines with their lies, pretending to be protecting the Philippines but sneaking in their military to be permanent occupants of the Philippine islands and waters.
When would the Americans be back in Clark Air Base and Subic Naval Base and to set up the bar industries again?
