- China has been targeting the Philippines with economic, political and military warfare. The Philippines, which has a much smaller military, is no match for China's military might, so it's had to come up with creative ways of fighting back so it can punch above its weight. In this episode of China Unscripted, we discuss the Philippines' Angels of the Sea strategy, the Philippines' relationship with China and how Chinese propaganda is backfiring. Joining us in this episode is David Day, the chairman of the Global Risk Mitigation Foundation, and one of the leading international legal practitioners on the Indopacific region, including the Philippines.

the Worst in the duterte regime back in 2017 - 2022 is that they are Using the patriotic song or country song of freddie aguilar entitled "Bayan Ko" and yet they are Boot Lickers of the Corporate Mafia Regime of china.. also he said that the Winning of the Philippines🇵🇭 on the Arbitral ruling in UNCLOS is just only a paper..that means he is dumping the Winning of the Philippines🇵🇭 about the Case..
most of the philippine Corrupt Fooliticians are pupPET🐩 of the Corporate Mafia Regime in china Mostly in CON-gress(congress) and aome in the SIN-ate(senate)..
Where can I get one of those great China Unscripted mugs?
Do I get one if I become part of the 50c Army?
Trust me those Philippine women officers know exactly how to speak good english and chinese and they understand the cultural implications and how to address this correctly and efficiently with the chinese soldiers. Many Philippinos are part chinese and have learned not only the language but the writing from lola(grandma). I have had many dealings with Pinay, and there are many of them that speak 3 or more languages. I know two that I have met who can speak the national language Tagolog, their regional or local language, English(almost all of them speak english), and a couple others. One girl spoke chinese korean and japanese in addition to the local national and english. Many speak other languages as well. They are VERY SMART people.
The honey traps trategy has been deploy in ancient and modern time. In every war have been use this weapon. That is why men cannot fight war without women at the front and back.

Did you got her from olongapo whore house?
You found treasure my friend..
I have been to the Philippines and I still have Filipino and Filipina friends there. It's very uplifting to see such a small nation going toe to toe with a larger bully and refusing to back down. They have a loving and proud heritage. Biyayaan ka.
God Bless you too ❤
God bless you too
If this pink dragon will invade it would be a bloody hell Filipinos won't kowtow China
Didn't realize that they are going toe to toe with the USA. Remember when USA was and in some ways still Philippines colonial master. 1895 to 1946 and every time Filipinos wanted independence the USA killed them. How many times in the last hundred years how many times has China attacked and slaughtered the Philippines people?
it would be China's Vietnam War for sure@@Winters777

As a Filipino residing in the Philippines the analyst explanations about everything was perfect. He perfectly summed up what happened before in Obama's administration and to the current US administration. And our stance regarding the US has always been pro even if Duterte at the time was anti because if you look closely to his Generals, Cabinets and especially the Secretary of Defense it's always the opposite of what Duterte had said.
China has been bribing US officials since the 1970s, to include the Bushes, Clintons, Bidens, and Obamas.
Neil Bush is the Hunter Biden of the Bush family, and has been for decades.
China financed Clinton's 2 elections in 1992 and 1996.
China financed Obama's campaign as well. In addition to huge transfers of military technology, China also gets political favors for their bribes.
Du30 was never anti-US 🤭 He parroted his own generals when says like: "I like China, but the military, you know?"
He was against the neutrality, trying to be vague then spouting the commie argument against the US, trying to bait China into feeding in more money - which they barely did.
He was trying to play both sides - if China invested more, the Philippines benefited. If China didn't take the bait, the US would be forced to be pro-active.
He had the lesser win after China tried to stall it 😅
I think Delfin Lorenzana was the real power.
@@BAROKsiAKOno Duterte was the real power but he kept his side strong. He did not give up his only leverage which is the Mutual Defense Treaty. He kept lorenzana in his Cabinet to have an opposition voice.
The MDT was his bargaining chip. Maybe he is wrong with how he keeps it calm with China, I think that the analyst is right when he said that it was because of the Chinese pledges.
The Philippines is now slowly moving away from China, taking ZTE and huawei slowly. We are seeing NOKIA and US based 5G telecom deals nowadays. Even the Philippines biggest online banking transaction giant GCash is now partnering with VISA.
We are slowly seeing our country's economic pivot towards like-minded democracies.
As an American the fundamental difference between us and our authoritarian socialist style enemies like the Imperial Japan, Communist China is that they are extractive - they want resources or territory and we are trying to build an alliance to counterbalance the communists. The CCP has a track record of bullying their neighbors and when they started bullying the Philippines you guys must have figured hey the Americans have left twice and returned to defend us, we are better off in an alliance with them. I agree but be warned: the CCP has their tentacles deep into our establishment via bribes and there is a marxist takeover underway in America so you may be on your own for awhile until we can recover, IF we recover. So if war breaks out you guys may need to dig in for awhile and find a way to survive against drones, night vision, chemicals and possibly biowarfare attacks until we can rebuild our military personnel.
One last point : we have a history of leaders, like MacArthur who was hired by President Quezon to build the army, with personal ties and love of the Philippines. So much so that he insisted on returning and destroying the occupying Japanese forces instead of bypassing them and leaving the Philippines to suffer an occupation that would lead to famine as their supplies got cut off. Good luck stay free.
And yes our country is now pushing back and it's pushing hard, to the point that we are now also diversifying our alliances like Japan, South Korea, India, USA, UK, Canada and Australia and we are now inviting these nations to patrol with us in the west Philippine sea aka South China sea in the name of freedom of navigation.
We are grateful for all the countries who are helping the Philippines now and praying that more will come out to condemn China's bullying and the danger the 9 dash line could do to our freedom of navigation.
President Marcos Jr initiated it to fight back and all neighboring countries came out for help too and after President Marcos Jr is gone, it will start again with weak leader who can't debate.
Thank you
Great to see the Philippines push back. We will stand shoulder to shoulder and help push back anyway we can.
Great episode!
From New Zealand - Gooooo the Philippines!
Just one look at the map and you don't need to be genius to know that China's claim and its 9-dash line is ridiculous.
Communists are very bold, hoping to shock their way into more power.
@@LRRPFco52 or they keep digging a deeper hole for the party.
So what's the allies of the Philippines doing about it, let China continue bullying the Philippines? 😢
Chinese EEZs drawn squarely through other countries, Russian borders halfway inside of Ukraine, voting districts in the U.S. grossly empowering conservative minorities, plenty of assholes drawing ridiculous lines on maps these days.
Remember nazi fall with so much power they have.
Philippines loves democracy ,freedom from any control. Filipinos love their country. They are brave to defend their freedom. They are ready to die for their country. Historically, their ancestors were warriors. They do not like war, but do not step down on their feet.They want peace and have human consideration, but they are ready to defend their country. They have unity for their country. That spirit will go through. Bayanihan culture, ready to help each other for the common goal.
I agree that the Filipinos love freedom but like the U.S.A, repression is creeping in on them. Last year I was shocked to hear of some of the restrictions imposed on the population.
Thanks for identifying the specific events that led up to the current situation. The Obama involvement is eye-opening. Pres Obama's lack of action really exacerbated the Nine Dash Line stance of the CCP.
His campaign was financed by the CCP, just like Clinton's.
Same with Biden. The money trail is in the open with all the shell companies and accounts held by James and Hunter Biden. It's open treason.
Obama was committed to lack of action on red lines and anything else that required action.
True. Very surprising. 😢
@@bobotmeistera lot of things messed up around the world during Obama's term especially in the mid-east.
Very nice point of view, putting Philippine Servicewomen in communicating with China Coastguard as a Political warfare is indeed a brilliant idea made by Mr. Gavan....I can say that this is more like Physchological Warfare coz of Cultural issue, just like what you've said...A mother lecturing a man or men....Brilliant idea indeed....
respect to the philippines from your neighbor Cambodia. stand up to the bully!
southeast asia speak up !
Thank you and God bless
Your Cambodian Government supports CCP that's the problem.
Filipinos are loving people..
David Day’s narrative of events is 100% accurate. We Filipinos felt abandoned by the Obama administration specially when no action was being done when the artificial islands was being constructed by China. We surmised that Obama was giving China a free pass since China was the biggest creditor of the United States during that time. This is why Filipinos are more fond of President Biden and even Trump than Obama.
Obama’s half brother lives in China. Didn’t want anything to happen to him.
obama betrayed the Philippines.
To think that Obama is part Indonesian.
Why didn't Filipinos take action? Why expect foreigners to save you? Look at how Vietnam does it.
@@tdn4773 Common sense dictates that if the Philippines used force against China it will only be reciprocated by a bigger force. So The Philippines took the proper and diplomatic way by filing a case at the UN Arbitral Tribunal against China which the Philippines won. And thank goodness for this action by the Philippines since this case victory over China became the basis why countries like Germany, Netherlands, France, India, Japan, Australia, South Korea…etc. manifest their supports to the Philippines and informs China to obey the 2016 Arbitral Tribunal ruling in favor of the Philippines.
Don't ever mess with the Filipino don't ever underestimate their level of education and sophistication because they will smack you down if you're not paying attention!! These are some of the most capable people you have ever met that the nurses from the Philippines are sought out throughout Asia and the Middle East because not only are they extremely skilled in their jobs but they have compassion which they lack in Asia generally speaking and everyone wants a Pinno caregiver! Because they just are good people and they are frankly one of the most amazing populations have ever met. I'm a dual us and Swiss citizen and I've been everywhere in the world and that's one of my favorite populations of all the people I've met.
Nah. Filipinos vote based on the candidates' looks and promises. Same as everywhere else, but with way less nuance and more bribing the deeper you go into provinces
Wow thank you.
During the Korean War, 1000 Filipinos vs. 40,000 Chinese - Filipinos held their ground and pushed back the Chinese. Filipinos are very good tacticians. On top of that, Filipinos are very religious.
@@rbebeabucay9356 dont forget filipinos love to destroy each other politically
Thank you
My partner is Filipina and I spend time in Philippines. They are a friendly and gentle people until you really upset them. The same with the Vietnamese. Both countries are being bullied by China. China had better hope these nations do not coordinate their resistance.
This "new" tactic is actually something the military has made used of in WW2. Anyone remember Tokyo Rose? I remember in our BroadComm class talking about it.
True, that was the Japanese military using that tactic on the USA troops. It probably would not work today on USA troops as women are more integrated into most roles in society and the workplace, including the military. Not sure about China, but the way their internet posters try to extoll the virtues of "thousands of years of Chinese tradition" I can see why the Philippine military is using it. Good for them!
Come on man you all know that the world started with the millennials and they have “invented “ everything
damn! I only discovered her right now, I knew of the Velvet Revolution and now this, thanks you!
I agree, women also were used as spies in ww2 because they are women and hard to distinguish. This "New TacTiC" is not entirely new
China clearly overstepped on the sovereignty rights issue in the South China Sea that is within the Philippines 200 nautical mile Exclusive Economic Zone also known as the West Philippine Sea. China cannot deny the fact that this is an established international law. The CCP knows this and cannot win the argument. That's why the CCP don't want to settle the ownership issue peacefully in the international court but rather resorted to gray zone sea grabbing and bullying tactics. The problem is, this waterway is major economic sea lane of many countries all over the world and are affected by this illegal claims of China.
Correction, Philippines is only entitled for sovereign rights at WPS not sovereignty but only the PH government have the valid arguments to claim it and enforce their rights.
And if that falls into the dirty hands its gonna be difficult to retrieve SO, don’t ever close your mind and eyes from here and on be On Guard every second.
I never have time for the longer version of these. Excerpts are great! Thx!!!
And the CCP has forgotten one piece of Philippine history is the Philippines’ history of guerrilla warfare!

Warms the heart to hear of all this Philippine push-back. I'm sorry the Obama admin. failed to stand with Philippines, he was good at speechifying but didn't walk the talk. Oh, and by the way, I'm pretty sure that is not a Philippine Navy officer shown on the thumbnail. Army or Marine maybe.
It's a photo of her in the Philippine Military Academy. There's only one military academy and its cadets choose which armed service to join in their senior year, but whatever their choice, they still use the same uniform which copied that of West Point (as the PMA was established by Gen. Douglas MacArthur during the 1930s).
I know about the Philippine National Electric Power Grid which is 1/4 (40%) owned by China. This was mentioned last month by the Philippine Secretary of Defense Gil Teodoro. which needs to be addressed to buy out the 40% China's ownership of the National Power Electric Grid. This is a national security concern & must be dealth with asap. Philippines adversary who is China CCP, can use this as a tool to hinder the country's electric power throught the island. The PH Govt. could seel the 40% to probably Japan or those friendly nations & not with China. China had alter motives when they bought those 40% Shares of the Ntl. Electric Power.
Hey, 1/4 is definitely not 40% 😂 .. friend, you need to get some tuition on Arithmetic pronto 😅😅

This is Philippine brain power vs China's brawn power.
The Philippines has always been on the right side of the conflict with China and history will vindicate us when everything is said and done.
Smart moves by the Philippines. 🤩
He explained it so well.
there's still a long road before the philippines succeed in decoupling/derisking from china, especially with how chinese companies and their subsidiaries have been heavily investing in philippine utility companies especially telecommunications, energy, etc.. leading to security vulnerabilities from foreign manipulation. there has to be a line drawn when it comes to allowable foreign investments in areas crucial to national security.
"Angel's of the Sea" is certainly an interesting, albeit not new, concept of psychological warfare. I think it is a little bit more complex though than the short explanation suggested about the Chinese suddenly feeling intimidated by some "mother" figure at sea. Given the rampant misogyny and sexual harassment of the CCP version of Chinese society, it's hardly like they're overwhelmed by respect for women. But maybe there lies part of the key, misogynistic cultures/societies often display both hate and fear of women.
This is a westernized viewpoint. Women are holding important positions in China, and women have CEO positions in Western plants of their economy. huge enterprises like Huawei themselves.
The culture itself has some aspects of specializing by the genders, to to optimized work, but it is not a must, it is just experience that can be updated with new experience.
@@neovxr "women have CEO positions in Western plants"
It's indeed rare to see one so clearly defeating their own argument. That being said, how about other, like domestic plants? Or even the government?
I think that you will find Huawei a very poor example - of everything. But let us continue with the Westernized perspective? As in the composition of the higher echelons of the CCP? It has actually grown worse over the years. Finally, Westernized as in the great successes of the #metoo movement in China? Where female whistleblowers are continuously silenced, or worse, simply disappear?
I really cannot speculate what viewpoint you're representing, I can only determine that it is a very false and biased one.
I liked that about the Filipino coastguard using women to communicate. It does play on some psycological strings if you can create a "parent-child" assosiacion. As a former debtcollector I often used the debtors first name if they got angry, startes screaming, calling me names etc. "Paul! You don't speak to people like that. It is impolite!" And it worked most if the time 😅
This guy is cheating or does not know better.
Filipino women have utterly strong personalities and are very very competent, as soon as they decide to do something important and serious.
Of course there is cultural respect of women in China, but it depends on assigned roles.
At least half of this efficacy comes from the Filipino women as such, whatever education the chinese guys in charge may have received.
It's the knowledge that men and women are different enough to make use of that in productive ways. But materially, the task is the task, and women do it well.
This is a great segment and Day's comments ring true to me. I recall visiting a well connected Filipino in Singapore at the time of the nine-dash judgement and they highlighted that a group of former US ambassadors to the Philippines visited Manila to deliver a message of caution from the Obama Administration.
Honestly the US has never understood the Philippines.
yeah but we always tried to work with that misunderstanding they have always been a lot better off with USA than Spanish or japnesee rule
@@madman026 they literally gave us our independence, granted there was a bit of a quarrel but they are the first colonizers to actually hand us independence and helped us establish independence and they were there to defend us and free us from the Japanese rule and in return during the Korean war despite being in a state of disarray we sent volunteers to help the US in creating south korea by driving away communist chinese and north koreans and we played a huge part in holding ground, and during the dictatorship of Marcos(the bad one) they helped us economically and they aided in exiling said dictator and there was a coup attempted on Cory's time but America made sure that didn't happen thus there hasn't been a government instability since thanks to the guaranteed support of America even when Duterte soured US relations they still believed in us and we finally recuperated with the US thanks to Marcos(the good one) its honestly endearing how the existence of a democratic super nation can assure the future of a third world country like ours and make us one of the fastest growing economies thanks to them that we hardly rely on our own military.
@@traphimawari7760 when we took over from Spain we made a promise and we aim to keep it we also want you to be able to exercise your won independence as well

@@TheFredmac yeah fair point it was the Trump administration as well so honestly fck Trump, I don't care if its Biden now its better than having a MAGA fan as an ally. Still Duterte kinda was leaning more towards Russia and China at the time so we can't exactly discount the fact that Duterte was terrible heck as if the war on drugs wasn't bad enough we even still feel the effects of it until now, literally can't even joke around about drugs like telling my buddy he looks like an addict otherwise its gonna be seen on the same light as a bomb threat, things are sensitive now thanks to Duterte.
A very smart move by the Armed Forces to support the United States the US military just needs to learn how to behave when they're in the Philippines and that was the biggest problem and if they just behave themselves and act like good people and don't take advantage of the local people then there would be a really nice relationship they just have to understand that the people in the Philippines are really faithful and serious Catholics and so they have to respect that and they have to treat them as the educated people that they are because the people in the Philippines may not have jobs but there's some of the most educated people in Asia. I went to the University of Santo Tomas which is older than the United States for bioethics conference and it's amazing to see that place and how old is and imagine how competitive it is to get into the top universities in Manila wow
Military Police seriously need to do their job & work with local authorities to make sure their troops don't mess up.

Salute to this " Angel's of the Sea "...❤❤
Even Vietnam given a choice between China or the USA chose the USA, which given their fairly recent history certainly says something about how the Chinese are regarded by their neighboring countries. China is almost perfectly boxed in by sworn enemies that only pretend not to be to keep the CCP quiet. It would seem that The CCP may have been encouraged to believe that their bullying had worked or was working and have only just worked out that it has not worked and was not going to either. However large and powerful a military and country may be invading and profitably subjugating another country has always been difficult but is perhaps more difficult today than at any time in the past. Even the Romans had great difficulty pulling this off and the British rarely did it this way either. Not even the USA seriously attempted to do this in either Iraq or Afghanistan and could not even manage to reach or sustain their most limited ambitions. As for the Russians in regard to Ukraine. Whatever happens from now on Russia is the biggest loser.
At some time and somehow China gained delusions of grandeur way above its selected station in the world pecking order and so lost its collectivist mind, Russia did likewise. There is not and never was there going to be two world powers. This was never going to be allowed to exist other than within the imagination of a few collectivists and anti-Anglio-American intellectuals at the UN. That debate was permanently settled back in 45. What greatly helped build China up is being used to bring it right back down to Earth again, and the quicker the CCP gets the message the better for them, China, and above all the Chinese people.
Very few like the boss and still fewer say that they do to others until they look seriously at the alternative or get a taste of him or her. Not even the Chinese people trust the CCP to act in their best interests so why any other country should wish to genuinely do so would be a mystery if so much as even one actually did so.
The ccp so called leaders are actually dumb asses !!!😂😂
So I heard how XIjinping asking the Americans to go back to China, saying their business is open. I hope Americans do not go there.
This was an excellent discussion on the history and current actions on-going regarding Chinese-Philippine relations. The guest presenter was right on target with his analysis. In 2015 Indonesia reportedly sunk 40 illegal fishing vessels, including one from China, and others from Vietnam, Thailand, the Philippines and possibly others to protect their fishing grounds. In 2016 Argentina sunk a good sized Chinese fishing boat illegally fishing. So why doesn't the Philippines sink these illegal fishing vessels and enforce their rights, especially if they can get the U.S. Navy and Air Force to back them up in this enforcement action to clear the Chinese out of their waters?
Not enough firepower. Obviously. Duterte, Marcos, Arroyo and Erap pocketed it all. PH almost paid off most of its debt during the 2nd Aquino's time but Duterte ruined it all over again and put ph in further debt.
Thank you for that very nuanced and truthful analysis of what actually happened. As a Filipino, I was frustrated with how the mainstream media unfairly reported Duterte and the soundbites are the ones that stuck. We knew that Duterte pandered to the Chinese as a strategy. Most of us were and are still pro-US because we more culturally identify with the US. That said, we also know that as far as the US is concerned, the Philippines is not really that high a priority compared to other countries. Duterte also was a very competent president and the changes and the laws passed during his term was felt by the masses. That is why he is loved by the people even up to now. Now with the US under Biden, his Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin said "The US will never take our allies for granted." Its good they admitted it. And its good to hear it from the Philippines long time ally.
nah. during duterte's term i bought two brand new cars. he made cars and gasoline more expensive. also degraded a lot of our institutions like a wannabe dictator. tried to destroy critics like media outlets rappler and abs-cbn, even jailed a senator over trumped up charges. the covid response was a disaster mostly focused on lockdowns and face shields (see pharmally). so don't tell me he was a competent president. his foreign policy was a DISASTER. him being anti-US from the very beginning certainly spoiled us relations from the start
Duterte is a paid shill by China. There was a chinese ambassador that visited him before he ran for presidency. Don't be a gullible goof.
Great on the Philippines!
imagine taiwan use the same tactic of pivoting like in the Philippines, trying shift alliances and both nations(china and America) gets humiliated even more
I was wondering about the women in the Philippines' Coast Guard! That was ver brilliant. Thanks for that analysis.
The first time I saw a female cost guard telling the chinese coast guard to go away was many years ago from an Indonesian ship.
Strong women👍👍👍
It was the Obama Administration that pivoted to Asia to encircle and contain China. Obama had militarized that whole region which was already militarized, with more bases, assets and war machines. So, it is the US that had militarized that area --South and East China Seas, the surrounding areas and around the world--with 800 plus military bases and with its powerful navy. And US orders Britain, Japan, Australia, etc., to bring their war ships into the South and East China Seas, and the surrounding areas. So, US is the real aggressor and bully, not China.
Obama.is a useless SOB
nice try, wumao
😂
We are a peace-loving people but when it comes to protecting our sovereignty, our nation per se, we will always stand firm for it!
Growing up as the only boy in a family of all Philippino woman, I can assure to you that the CCP doesn't have a chance. 😆😅😂

Mentally and Psychologically Superb, Battle tested in external and internal, planning and strategy are tested, Philippines is one of the Best Military.
Well said, Matt!
Don’t let the friendly nature of Filipinos fool you. Remember the 900 Filipinos who fought 40,000 Chinese in Yultong during the Korean War.
The Philippines are smart and understand the Chinese better than us Americans.
Great courage shown by our Filipino brothers and sisters. Love from India.
My wife and son are both dual US-Philippine citizens, so, obviously, I really hope that the US and Philippines foster closer connections over time. I also hope that the Phils continues to resist, as best they can, China. It really feels like the Phils, Vietnam, Taiwan, and Japan really need to find a way to get closer as well. In some way that allows them each to feel important and respected by the others (which is pretty hard with Japan in the mix, both because it is so large compared to the others and because there's still some latent hard feelings over WWII, at least in the Phils). Those 4 have to contend directly with Chinese imperialism in the South China Sea, so they have a lot to gain by presenting a united front there.
It's happening now, at least with Japan doing military exercises with its Philippine counterpart.
Why does Matt look so confused the whole time?
Tucker Carlson moment
It’s his sort of ironic joke response.
You are soooo right!!!
I was beginning to think the thumbnail was clickbait.
Pray hard
You guys and chris are like the perfect trio for what you do i love it. Das truth!!!!!!
Awesome analysis
Lex Fridman had on a CCP propagandist recently. John Mearsheimer. it was gross.
I BELIEVE OF OUR ARMED FORCES OF THE PHILIPPINES
For once i got a notif...
On point on what really happened! Sadly until now some filipinos dont see it this way...
We know which country did the Nord Stream pipeline sabotage, and you collude with Filipinos to do the same kinds of sneaky stuff.
Good on the Philippines
You guess is very sly. Your guess knows too much about political warfares to be innocent.
We Thanks America n d rest who help our PHILIPPINES. GOD SAVE US,
notice? Every serious problem starts and ends with the democrat party.
How it becomes democratic....duterte is a pro China..so what he did to US defense agreement during his term..he cancelled it.
Brilliant guess expert, thank you!
The nine dash line is negated by the Hague saying China had no claim in the Spratley Is. Nearly every thing barry did in his 2nd term was anti American , jb has continued it .
Good and brilliant discussion. Love it.
The China needs to get out of the Philippines waterways as they have no right to be there
I think one thing that was overlooked during that situation when Duterte asked Obama about enforcing that arbitration award And the United States didn't get involved about enforcing it was actually the right thing. Yeah the Philippines is an ally of the United States but the agreement that the USA has with the Philippines is that the USA will defend the Philippines if it was militarily attacked / invaded. What the United States was being asked at that time by the Philippines was for the United States to be on the offensive. Enforcing is an offensive move. The agreement simply states that we will defend the Philippines. Not be on the offensive for the Philippines. So the remark of the American government doing a bonehead move and washing their hands from it is 100% inaccurate. So in this situation the US did not screw up. It was the Philippines 100% responsibility to enforce the arbitration decision. This is complete disinformation. Actually the main issue that Duterte had with Obama was when they had a meeting and Obama brought up the subject of all that killing that was going on in the Philippines with its war on drugs. Since Duterte was very narrow-minded towards the USA compared to his friendliness towards China and Russia, he took that as Obama was trying to tell him how to rule his country. So in spiteful move he turned towards China and Russia and thought that he could prove to the world that the Philippines didn't need the USA and that they were better off with China and Russia. Needless to say he was proved wrong. It was clear to see that Duterte had a near hatred for the United States during his whole time of administration
You do realize that the Chicoms funded Obama's campaign with micro donations laundered through online accounts, right? Obama was a stooge for China through and through, just like Clinton and now Biden-su.
The Chinese funded Clinton's campaign as well. It was a huge scandal being investigated at the time, but Clinton fired the FBI Director 6 months into his Presidency, in the beginning of an Independent Counsel already formed due to all the scandals he had.
The US Navy conducts freedom of navigation patrols around the world, especially for regions where we have fought to free others from tyranny or regional hegemony.
Clinton and Obama turned on this by doing China's bidding, which is what was used as the pretext to get Duterte to turn to....China and Russia. I'd be looking at Duterte's bank accounts first.
Yeah you're partly right.
"What the United States was being asked at that time by the Philippines was for the United States to be on the offensive."
Philippines only asked for support against China's aggression. Obama is still a bonehead for giving Duterte a half-assed answers after Philippines ALREADY won the arbitration in Hague and Filipinos expect that as a treaty ally of the US. Not just Philippines, even Japan is also seriously in doubt about America's commitment with them in defending against their Senkaku Islands. America is very lucky with the Filipinos being mostly pro Americans despite being Duterte as a president. As a bonus, Philippines did not succumb to Belt and Road initiative that debt trapped several developing countries around the world which would have placed that country under China's control.
I see your point about the treaty. But, let me ask you this. The US has been using offensive weapons to protect Israel from its Arab enemies, like moving aircraft carriers to the Mediterranean and the Red Sea and shooting down missiles from Iran and Syria. If the US can do this to protect Israel, why can't it do it with the Philippines as well? Especially when the Philippines was once a protectorate state under the Americans.
That's quite a misinformed statement, sounds like you don't know about the current substantial involvement of the US Navy in the Philippines. @@rolandoreyes3144
intelligently analyzed. good reporting
The US government was just trying to be modest and careful not to appear as a hegemon by being neutral and unbiased on the issue. Also hoping that the UN mechanism will play itself out and that's the being civil. But they should have known that the CPP isn't civilized.
China just bribed Clinton, Obama, and the Bidens. It's how they do business. The normal man takes the wad of cash. The arrogant man takes 2 wads of cash.
Biden is cheaper because of his extreme moral compromise (ped0phile). Ped0philes are much easier to bribe.
During the 2012 standoff, that would have been an excuse because Philippines haven't file the arbitration at Hague. After Philippines won the arbitration in 2016, it is already inexcusable. Obama should have sought joint action with Philippines for the enforcement of UN ruling. America would look good around the world and it would have partially destroyed Duterte's credibility because he was selling the idea at that time that America with all their interests over China will not lift a finger to defend their weak, little ally in the Pacific.
@@BatAskal Obama was born a Soviet asset, and later became both a Russian and Chinese asset. This is openly recognized by who financed his campaigns and what methods were used. He’s a traitor to the US who was raised to hate America by Bolsheviks.
The Philippines was screaming for help from the US during the Obama Administration, but Obama didn't do squat because he didn't want to offend his puppeteer, the CCP.
@@BatAskaland because of inactivity, it then just proved duterte's point. That the u.s. had its interest in appeasing china. And had a lot of economic interest based in china.
Although the Philippines won the arbitration law, no country could enforce it. Many people believe that the ruling is just a meaningless piece of paper. UNCLOS, the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, is powerless against any country that has a strong military. President Duterte may have come to the conclusion that challenging China would not benefit the Philippines, so he sought to establish a more favorable relationship with China instead.
So many of the world's problems are down to Obama's laziness.
You mean democrats...their motto is " we came we saw we killed ".....followed by " just wait until the very end of the election...you have to wait for the end of the election..thats when our votes will come in". You will see a surge....for US. Clinton knew what was happening.
If you look further back you will see Democrat foreign policy decisions have caused problems for at least a century.
It is very obvious during noynoy administration
Very well explained, Angels Mother.
I prefer Philippines will be neutral as we can but if china will be to aggressive we have no choice to take side on US
Thank u for the insight
...It's accurate and witty i say👍
If you want additional in-depth academic information, outside of TH-cam, regarding what countries like Russia and China are doing; then I highly encourage using these useful resources, which have extensive reports:
- Amnesty International
- Atlantic Council
- Australian Strategic Policy Institute
- Carnegie Endowment
- Cato Institute
- Center for New American Security
- Center for Strategic and International Studies
- Foundation for Defense of Democracy
- Helsinki Commission
- Heritage Foundation
- Hudson Institute
- Human Rights Watch
- National Endowment for Democracy
- Royal United Services Institute
- Safeguard Defenders
- Stimpson Center
- Wilson Center
This is a list of multinational think tanks and NGO's, that present their data and findings for the sake of public transparency and accountability.
Apologists for pro-Authoritarian regimes despise these organizations for exposing what their rogue governments do.
Several of those are Soviet fronts, and have been for decades.
@@LRRPFco52
Sure, buddy.
@@Will_Smith_Slapping_Xi_Jinping Amnesty International is a Soviet front, for starters. They were looking for non-aligned useful idiot volunteers who could be distanced from the party in the wake of Stalin’s distrust of the Comintern’s foreign activities.
I can go down the list if you want, since I’ve been studying ideological warfare and communist front groups since the early 1980s.
Some of the groups mentioned are anti-communist, while others are communist. An easy way to distinguish them is how dumbed-down the communist messaging is, appealing to emotions rather than logical faculties.
For example, CATO Institute and Heritage Foundation have been calling out Marxist front groups for decades, whereas Amnesty International and other “peace groups” are merely ways to recruit stupid college kids and volunteers to do the bidding of the Russians.
Most are communist group.
A lot of these are mouthpieces for US elites and the US/Western Military-Industrial Complex. Nobody with a brain takes these organisations seriously.
Very good presentation and it was informative, thanks 👍👍 ! Liked the idea of women involved in the political cultural warfare !!

"To be a enemy of America is dangerous, but to be a friend of America is fatal." - Henry Kissinger, former US Secretary of State.
You're right. It's fatal to America being a friend to China. 😂😂
@@BatAskal Honestly, America is not a friend to China.
Now I understand.
Our country does😢
We philipinos are not afraid of anything here on mother earth ,pain and death are temporary,we have God,the creator and the most high and powerful.
Chinese-Filipino here, born and raised in the Philippines...
Regarding the female coast guard personnel, get out of our way CCP, we have Uhura on the bridge.
Yes most Filipino Chinese are patriotic..
I agree
Very informative video!!!
Personally, I think to force the CCP re-think its expansionist ambitions, the west should invest its business interests in South East Asian countries instead of China. China's ambition is only possible because of the economic boom its been experiencing, and this is something the west can slowly cut ties from. Not only will this deter the CCP from continuing its expansionist goals but this will also foster a more friendly economic partnership with the ASEAN neighbors.
Remember that wrap song? "ZTE ain't nothing to fuck with" , by Hue Tang Clan...
We Filipinos should learn to stand on our own. Other counties can leave us...but in the past wars we were held by God's hand, our actual Saviour...not other countries.
You can see the helped of God Almighty by using the others countries backing up or help us,,Philippines cannot stand alone without assistance of others allied countries specially the United States of America..
Very knowledgeable in terms of Angel of the sea. Spot on. The Chinese mentality when having to deal with your mother. Notice too, the absence of female high ranking ministers in their administration.
