    I am from the Philippines and I commend you Lee for unearthing what's wrong with most people here. To this day, in spite of all the information about what US does abroad, in spite of American atrocities in our own history (Balangiga to name just one example) people here still think Uncle Sam is our big brother, in spite of the US constantly inciting tensions in the SCS, our mindset is, they're looking out for our best interest. Harris was just here stoking tensions. On the other hand, China has existed in Asia for millenniums and never has been a threat to its neighbors, in fact over the centuries many Chinese have peacefully assimilated in other Asian countries, Philippines being one of them, and they had been productive and active contributors to the region's growth. Then the Americans declared they were a threat, and these guys you interviewed agreed China is a bully. It was the Americans who colonized us, NOT China!!!! Go figure.

    Regarding the disputed Islands. This goes far beyond sovereignty issue. China is surrounded by 300 US military bases. You don't need to be a military expert to understand that China need to scatter most of its naval assets to limit damage in case of US first strike. China just can't keep all its 500 naval vessels in its 12 nautical miles. So to be able to scatter its navy, China need offshore bases

      It is easy for you to say because your country is not sandwiched or the main focus of this interview. It is like weighing where the Philippines' position is, and no matter which side the Filipinos choose, they will scrutinize. They even make an effort to be in the middle, but the content creator concluded that Filipinos are unquestionably on the side of the United States due to the country's influence on culture, food, and language. What the hell is that?

    As a Chinese who live in BGC Philippines where @Barrett do this video , I’m not surprised the result. Thank you so much for Barrett ‘s efforts. I really like Filipino,most of them are super friendly and helpful. I like this country full of beautiful nature place .And I also feel the big American influence in this land , some political and law system here was deeply influenced by US but not really efficient now. Philippines has own great culture ,but seems covered by the multi influence from different countries. Philippines is a mix blood country ,maybe it’s also a special point of here .
    From Du30 to now Marcos government they are finding a balance between China and US which I think is more wise way to gain more benefit into develop Philippines.
    I can see big potential of this country if has better infrastructure, lower electricity price ,more industrialization. Because the people here are really skilled and pious people , u can see how many oversea Filipino in the world , if their motherland can provide the same opportunities ,they will contribute to their own country more and no need live so far from their family.

    Most Filipinos aspire to migrate to the USA. Still the one country they look up to. With migration, it is not uncommon for most Filipinos to think of America as a second home or the home that they could like to immigrate to. This country also put to the vote many years ago to be part of the USA. This outlook has a long history of paternalism since WWII; their beliefs and of America's benevolence are unshakeable. So, it did not surprise me to hear their imbalanced or negative perceptions about China in contrast with the Vietnamese you interviewed.

    The US have been used and using the Philippine as a pivot point in the pacific and south east Asia Pacific strategy, in order to make a move it's geographic military, and economical dominant. If you ask me that : Does the US love the Philippines? And it really want to help the Philippines out of poverty to become an independent , rich and powerful country in the region? , my answer is : i can assure you that 1000% big No, No.the Philippines must do more research and deep thinking to see through the US.

    You should have interviewed more people and you may just stumble on a few that have a very different viewpoint than most. IF most Filipinos seem to have a largely negative view of China then blame it on America's overwhelming Soft Power (language, culture and Hollywood) which has a large influence on the Filipino psyche. This is something China must improve on. Suffice to say that a sizable number of Filipinos like myself have come to realise that America is a hypocrite (when it comes to human rights, democracy and freedom) and very interventionist.

Southeast Asia's largest number of Chinese: 1, Indonesia, about more than 10 million Chinese. Nearly 10 million Chinese live in Thailand. 3. Malaysia is home to more than 7 million Chinese. 4. Singapore, home to 4 million Chinese. 5. Myanmar, home to more than 1.6 million Chinese. 6. The Philippines, home to nearly 1.4 million Chinese

    I could understand the old sweet sentiment still lingering in the minds of Phillipines people but I would say they have shifted in general. I would believe, collectively, more are in favour of US many years back, so from the facts you see now, this has gradually changed. For this, we have Rodrigo Duterte to thank in wakening up the fact that Philippines was dictated by the Western power at the expense of its own dignity and interest. Philippines should be smart and not becoming another Ukraine for proxy flash point.

    Three things American influence the world:
    1, road traffic light red, yellow and green.
    2, malls and stores than street store,
    3, foods sit on table everyday like salt, pepper, ketchup and drink.
    4, …, …, 5, continue influences to the world like American sport basketball (NBA), baseball (MLB), football (NFL)
    It’s about clothes and shoes that people in world wear everyday like sneakers, jeans and t-shirts as jobs
    that they have them in stores that affordable made in China.
    In example, When I was teen in 1980s in Los Angeles, California,
    I just grab t-shirt in jean and sneaker shoes with mitts and ball to meet my friends waited outside,
    we then walked to the baseball field to play throw and catch, also other kids saw they came to join.
    We all had fun playing throw, hit and catch like baseball practice after school.
    After we played we walked to the 7-11 store for soft drink, Doritos and potato chips,
    then we said good bye and good night and play again tomorrow night afternoon.
    I don’t know those kids that I used to play baseball and basketball with them their future as today
    they maybe open store business or baseball and basketball league teams coaches or something else.
    That’s all about job people around the world run business like sports clothes store,
    sneaker became very popular street street shoes and work shoes to keep healthy.
    That’s what made in China is affordable to keep business continue run today.
    To product items is to build factories and need people to do the jobs.
    Same as to sell items is to hire people to build buildings to store items and people to sell them.
    That’s what job is all about were good influenced things by American continues today and tomorrow.
    The negative things influenced by American is that political like pelosi and pompoe war in their head like Ukraine today.
    And war in history very recently Afghanistan, Syria, Iraq, Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia and Korea in Cold War still.
    Ukrainian Armed Force and zelenskyy thanks to nato and American’s high technical weapons.
    But people can see beautiful buildings for business like clothes and foods stores destroyed into ash.
    In1980s, I heard negative things about China from teachers and I didn’t understand communist until college in 1990s.
    I heard from people say that China bans foreigners items,
    but I didn’t realize I wore clothes in 1970s and 1980s were made in China.
    In 1990s, I tried to follow my friend’s influence buy American tools with life warranty,
    but I had no place to keep tools while living in dormitory.
    When I need quick tools only available were China made everywhere and affordable,
    I just can’t wait until friends get home from thanksgiving vacation to use my America made tools.
    I need to fix quickly my car and drive to work on same day.
    In 1995s, I heard China improved and open more for foreigners business in and
    I saw a lot new buildings built in America and new residents in 1991s.
    And more job hired and more immigrant people grow culture foods store and restaurants.
    That’s what with China’s products the world can have a job.
    Politicians in Washington DC and Europe don’t want China became number 1 economic.
    I don’t think they can prevent China because the world needs job.
    Economic became deficiency in first world countries.
    That’s all about business people need the job.

      So true! I also think that the West is afraid of China. China is a superpower now and back then they used to bully china. Now that China is a superpower now they're afraid that China will will overthrow their hegemony on the world.
      Now as a Filipino I understand that we small country has been squeeze by the America and China. Their influence on our country is so great that I can't even imagine.
      We can't even choose to remain neutral on the issue about Taiwan. We want to remain neutral but we will be force to pick sides eventually.
      But in my opinion we Asians should stand together and unite.

      @@BreakingTheMatrix-cc1ct You are a man full of political wisdom. Unfortunately, few Filipinos know this truth. The Huangyan Island incident in 2016 was very dangerous, with big fish fighting and small fish suffering. The Philippines cannot escape geopolitical factors in the future. The Philippines is close to the United States. In the future, if the conflict occurs, the PLA will surely land in the Philippines and expel the US troops in the conflict. The Philippines will certainly help the US military. If the Philippines supports China, American troops will be expelled from the South China Sea. However, this is based on the premise that China has the military force to protect the political stability of the Philippines and cannot be confused by the Central Intelligence Agency. Obviously, China does not have such strength at this time. Now all ASEAN countries without US troops have turned to China. Except the Philippines, the Philippines cannot conduct independent diplomacy now. Frankly speaking, the Philippines is still a colony of the United States. The world of friendship and cooperation between China and the United States is beautiful. However, if there is a conflict between China and the United States, the later it is, the more in the interests of the Philippines. China will become stronger and stronger, and then the Philippines will embrace China like ASEAN. Drive American troops out of the South China Sea. Asia will always be peaceful. When the Philippines cooperates with China, China will also develop the Philippine economy for its own benefit. The Filipino people will become rich.

    I am a Filipino, and should I get the chance to be interviewed, China and US are both assertive in their interests, powerful, and meddlers in other countries, as in the Philippines. What I don't like about China and US is their government. China should respect our sovereignty so that we can have reasons not to allow the US to operate in our country against them. We don't need the US if China ceases bullying us in the WPS. As a small country with a weak military, we need the EDCA to augment our defense capability in case of external threats, not just from China but from other countries as well.
