DUTERTE: China's Right-Hand Ally in South East Asia

[kaito89]

Pagbalik nya baka may pasabog na naman siya kung bakit nawala sa Pilipinas ang WPS. Hehe.

 

[Basag24]

Meron bang posibilidad na ang pangulong Duterte ang gawing right-hand ng China sa South East Asia? Posible kayang ma reclaim natin 'Sabah' pag malakas tayo sa China at Russia?

Dami rin kasing mga kababayan natin ang naghihirap sa mga bansa sa Asia na wala man lang karapatan. Sana ang Pangulo ang maging right-hand para may mag respeto naman sa atin at hindi tayo aalipustain.

LOL, Sabah will never be reclaimed by our country even with the alliance of China and Russia. You are promoting war to other nation my friend, and you dont want World War 3 to start here in our country. Malaysia's Military capabilities have improved, they have better firepower than our military and it is a bad thing to challenge a well armed country to a war. And to put that US will oppose and join the war.

No, why would China want DU30 be their right hand? They already have the Left and Right Hand. They simply want the disputed islands.

 

[rapidox]

Yung di nakikita nang karamihan na yung anti-US stance ni DU30 ay dahil matagal na syang pro leftist.

Wag kayo padalos-dalos, tinginan nyu yung case sa Hong Kong ayaw na ayaw nila na maging isa yung government nila sa China.... at bakit? Tulisan kasi ng Chinese goverment, sa mainland China walang freedom of speech at meron mga crack down sa lahat nang mga gropu na anti-China.

Ayaw ko rin sa US, dahil masyado silang madaming alam sa pag police nang mga bansa na wala naman silang alam. Iraq naging failed state, Afghanistan possibleng maging failed state at sa Syria.

Russia ganun din, palpak din yung mga policy nila.

Gayahin natin ng SG, HK at Singapore. Economic boom kaylangan natin hindi panibagong ally?

 

[kaito89]

Ang tanong kung maging ally ba natin ang China sa trading e magiging komunista na agad tayo? Alam nyo ba talaga kung ano ang habol ng Pilipinas sa kanila? Di pakikipag alyansa sa militar o magpapalit ng kaalyado kundi business, maraming negosyo at trabaho para sa mga Pilipino. Wag nating baguhin ang talagang pakay ng gobyerno sa China. Lahat naman tayo gusto natin ng mas malawak na pakikipag alyansa para sa seguridad at ikakaunlad ng bansa. Wag sana maging masyong advanced o exaggerated magisip. Bakit ang US naman matatag ang relasyon sa China pagdating sa trading, ganun din ang ibang 3rd world na bansa, ano, naging komunista ba sila? Di naman di ba. Relax lang kayo masyado pang maaga para mag conclude. Pag dumating sa point na di na talaga tama ang nangyayari wag kayong mag alala sabay-sabay tayong tutuligsa at magrerebelde sa gobyerno.

 

[rapidox]

Wala naman my nagsabing natatakot sila na maging communista tayo d2 sa thread? Halos lahat nang post dito sa thread ay agree sila na maging full ally nang China, yung previous post ko naman ay yung para sa uninformed DU30 suppporter na akala nila friendly nation ng China.

China is a manufacturing behemoth with huge labor workforce, ano yung exchange natin sa China? Mindanao bananas? Ofcourse they want equal returns.

Mukha kasing natatakot po sila Ms. Chichun na baka ma adpot natin pagiging komunista ng China. Hehe. Di lang sa forum na to. Marami ding mga tao lalo na sa social media na takot na baka maging komunistang bansa din tayo kung makipag alyansa tayo sa China.

Anong masama kung maging komunista o sosyalista man tayo? Sana sosyalista na lang para 'sosyal' at huwag yong komunista ng North Korea na killjoy.

 

[Chichun]

Sorry na kung reaction ng mga tao ay meron fear. Ang ibig sabihin ay some filipino people and kasama ako doon ay we do not trust China because ang China is a communist country. Then nagkataon si Rodrigo Duterte is a leftwing po siya.

Talaga. Aanhin ang pagpapaunlad o pagpapayaman ng bansang Pilipinas e kung 100% without trust ang iba tao sa ano man socialist o communist country. Ang ibig sabihin ay nagkaroon na ng threat ang democracy (nangamba na) sa mga tao na hindi sumasang ayon sa leftwing political view sa paggovern ni Rodrigo Duterte. Ang mga hindi natatakot ay sumasang ayon sa beliefs ng mga leftist, kaya walang fear.

Maaari desperate lang talaga ang filipino people na yumaman o umunlad ang Pilipinas na they do not care kung leftist ang leader ng Pilipinas o meron siya communist friend o ano pa.

Sa akin ay ang salitang communist ay red flag na sa akin at sa ibang tao, na kahit keyso sabihin na yayaman, na keyso sabihin na uunlad ang Pilipinas o ano ay hindi na namin minsan naiisip.

Talaga. Nasanay na ang mga tao na ang mga president ay mga rightist. So unfamiliar sa ibang tao na ang naglilead ay pangleftist.

Ang kutob ko na karamihan ng pro Duterte ay agree sila sa left wing political view ni Rodrigo Duterte at ang mga anti Duterte ay mga rightist. Though hindi lahat.

Yeah. Parehas meron good ang leftist at rightist na iyan. Nagkataon na ayaw namin ng leader na leftist dahil leftist nga siya at meron kami fear sa pwede mangyari sa Pilipinas except lang sa mga tao na sumisigaw ng pagbabago dahil wala sila pakialam kung leftist ang leader nila basta change is coming.

Kaya nga sabi ko nga, if... if lang naman at hindi naman sana magkakatotoo iyon ay if dumating ang punto na patanggalin ang relihiyon sa Pilipinas---if lang naman ha? Hindi natin alam ha? I have this feeling na okay pa rin sa mga filipino people dahil nakatingin sila sa pagpapaunlad ng Pilipinas.

I am sure madami explanation ang iba tao na sang ayon kay Rodrigo Duterte kung bakit kailangan nga tanggalin.

Nagkataon kase na leftist ang naging leader. Hindi pa naman sinasabi na magiging communist tayo o ano pero siyempre kinukwestyon minsan ang action ni Rodrigo Duterte like ang huli balita sa negros oriental ay nagrerecruit ng mga communist rebel at utos ni Duterte.

Siyempre... mapapa ha? ako. Parang bakit? Ganun lang.

----------

Okay lang kung ally ang China at Russia basta ally pa rin tayo ng USA. Pero questionable ang ginawa ni Rodrigo Duterte na ayaw niya maging ally ang USA sa Pilipinas pero okay lang ang China at Russia then lahat ng European pati ay ayaw niya.

Leftist nga talaga siya. Then sabi niya na siya ang kauna unahan presidente ng Pilipinas na leftist. Blessed sa kanya iyon dahil siya ang una talaga.

Then dagdag niya na nagkaroon ng issue sa simbahan at kay Rodrigo Duterte na sinabi niya na he does not have religion daw. Yung mga supporter ni Duterte o ang iba fans niya ay agree din sila.

Gusto ko rin makita ang Pilipinas in the future kung ano mangyayari baka maganda din ang ikinalalabasan kung lahat ay mabago.

Hahayaan ko na lang lahat gumalaw ayon sa nais ng presidente ng Pilipinas pero dasal na lang.

 

[Basag24]

Hindi naman ako takot na ma komunista ang Pilipinas ("Sila" means im with Chichun?), ive read Marxist books and Communism is just us working hard for the country and not for our family. Sabi nga ni sir Rapidox, in trade, yung nagbibigay ng malaki, dapat malaki din yung kapalit, never pa sa history ng China na sila yung nagbibigay even sa panahon pa ng mga dynasties nila, look at Africa, ive never heard of any Chinese investment prospering in Africa. Yun lang tinatakutan ko, if maraming agreements ang China to us, ano kaya kapalit? Obviously wala tayong maibigay sa kanila because almost everything we can give is already there in China.

We read too much intent in what D30 is trying to do shifting the focus of Philippine foreign policy and injecting a huge load of practicality into it.

Forget, for a moment, what the media is trying to do parroting the point of view of the myopic Western political analysts and trying to implant the same in the head of Pinoys in this country and abroad. Before even the West set foot in the Philippines, our ancestors had a lively trade with China, the Mideast, India, and other Asian empires. When Spain, the US and other foreign masters overtook the Philippines and other Asian nations, the Philippines and these other Asian nations easily forgot who they were and took national policies that were more in line with their own Western masters. All of these brought Asian countries nowhere and made us the laughingstock of the world, even calling out rice as the source of Asian malaise. Can you believe they could think that?

When India, China, Malaysia, Singapore came to their senses, they went about setting their own independent foreign and trade policies and look where it brought them now. We are late in realizing this, having become too sickly comfortable sitting in the lap of our American allies that we didn't know what to make of our Asian neighbors calling us out as the "sick man of Asia." Americans call us bastards, the Brits call us domestic helpers and even had the gall of including in their dictionary the meaning of "domestic help" as "Filipina" and still we can't figure out what we're doing wrong.

You can't expect to turn around things if you don't change ways. That is the lesson of Asia. Let's hope this setup by D30 blazes a new path for other incoming Filipino leaders.

And it's too late to worry about a shift to communism Philippine version. It's so outmoded and out-of-fashion for any nation to embark on this path. China's style of communism is unique to them and works for such a large territory. They've shed so much of the old-school communism in their style of government that it's almost comic how we still think of them as communist in the purest sense of the word. They're really more after the Lee Kuan Yew style now, strong-handed, but more capitalist in so many other ways.

 

[theredvillain]

my personal concerns/opinions are:

- about sa BPO coz im also concerned kasi i work for a BPO company as well (in house nga lang) but as far as im concerned most if not all these BPO companies are all private. meaning hindi naman nila kelangan ng consent ng government nila para makapag establish sila ng contact centers sa bansa natin. but it is also true that there could be a possibility na umalis sila kung tlgang nagka girian na.

- in terms from the source of drugs, it is true that a lot of the drugs here is from china but there are other sources as well like taiwan. i guess with the ties that du30 is doing right now china and PH can possibly work out a solution to solve drugs cases both here and sa china.

- in terms of actual alliances i personally think that establishing our alliance with china is better in the sense that america has always and will always have something underneath the table na hindi natin nakikita. kahit naman sa history, US will always claim na papasukin nila ang isang bansa to grant freedom and make that country successful pero ang totoo niyan is they are after the resources of that country. and as far as i know we are a country that is rich with natural resources. i mean we know uncle sam and he is definitely here for something despite what he says.

 

[Chichun]

So karamihan kay Duterte, meron tiwala sa China. Yung ayaw kay Duterte, meron tiwala sa America. Depende ata sa faith ng tao ata. Ako, wala ako tiwala sa China. Ang iniisip ko, reverse ang mangyayari.

sarap nito sir! i actually agree with what you said. i believe masyado na lang tayo naipit sa comfort zone natin at konting galaw, pagbabago, adjustment, dumadaing na tayo or natatakot tayo.

cheers bro!

well said thumbs up!!!

Once in a lifetime lang si Duterte within 6 years. After ng leftist Duterte at sumunod ang presidente na hindi tulad niya dahil rare lang siya, ano gagawin ng mga tao na bomoto kay Duterte? Hindi na paalisin si Duterte? O sadyang meron plan para magtagal si Duterte sa upuan niya? Ganun ang ginawa ni Marcos, gusto niya patagalin ang posisyon niya kaya nagdaya siya ng boto para malalo. Ilan beses nalalalo si Marcos sa election. Kacompete niya sa Ninoy Aquino. E....... kung ganun din pala ay bakit nagpeople power pa?

Nagrign na lang si Marcos at inantay niya si Duterte para ipasa sa kanya ang pamamahala, kaya lang nagpeople power so ang ibig sabihin ay majority hindi normal sa kanila ang ganun. Nang okay na ay saka na ulit ipinili ang iron fist.

Dapat meron kasunod ang presidente na katulad niya at hanggang sa generation para ma reverse lahat as in at maging normal siya. I mean maconsider siya normal as in sa atin.

Psychologically ay rebellious lang siguro ang Filipino dahil sobrang sawa na sila sa nakikita ng mata nila. Nagsawa ba, kaya ganun.

O kaya hanap ang filipino people na iron fist pa din na same character kay Duterte during election.

Incoming filipino leaders ay malakas ang kutob ko na once lang siya and after nun tapos na. Duterte at Marcos lang ang filipino leaders na naiba and the rest hindi na ganun ang patakaran.

Once lang siya. Unless kung gusto nila na meron ongoing filipino leaders na ganun din, hanap siya ng tao na pwede ipasa ang pamamahala niya.

Malay natin after Duterte, meron president na pro America at nagtie uli ang Pinas at America. Wala na. Kaaway natin uli ang China.

Parang temporary ally lang ang China at Pinas then balik tayo sa pakikipagtie sa America.

 

[hunterxxx]

Nanalo yang si Duterte kasi nga oto-oto yong mga tao. Isama mo na rin yong mga NPA na nangangampanya sa kanya sa mga bukid at mga cause-oriented groups na makakaliwa na nangampanya sa kanya. Wala ka talaga magagawa, eh, komunista yan magaling yan sa brainwashing at pangungumbinse.

Talagang ang dami talaga ng mga bobotantes sa bansa natin. Hindi lang mamamatay tao ang Pres. D na yan, sobrang manyakis pa. Noong kabataan nyan balitang balita, ang daming mga chicks nyan, pati yong mga reporters ng isang kilalang istasyon naging 'flings' pa. Sa tingin ko nga baka yong mga babaeng hosts ng local CN* ay magiging 'flings' na rin kasi nga pag mka admire sa kanya eh wagas. Hahahaha... At saka halos doon maglalagi yan sa mga KTV bars pag gabi. Parang hodlum pa yan kung maglilibot dito sa Davao, kasi nag momotor bigbike pa kasama yong mga alipores niya. Pati yong Pari dito sa amin, kinalaban eh. Galit pa siya sa Archbishop kasi may babae daw eh pareho na sila. LOL....

Sinungaling pa yan, kaya nag-away sila ni Mar dahil binanggit daw ng tao ni Mar na may 'throat cancer' siya, which is totoo naman. Kasi binanggit yan ni Inday Sara, yong anak niya, noong nagpunta siya sa Amerika at nagpagamot.

Wala na tayong magagawa, andyan na yan. Ang sa akin lang, bombahin na lang tayo ng mga Amerikano ng Atomic bomb kasi nga traydor tayo sa ating samahan sa kanila. Hahahaha.....

sir OT lang po ha bagay sayo username mo... hahahaha...
hindi ako pro du30 at hndi rin ako anti ...
kung sa tingin mo maraming oto2 or bobo dito sa pinas .. BAKA ISA KANA DON...

US is here because Philippines has the potential of becoming an Oil Rich country in fact they planned on having joint exploration in the West Philippine Sea, think about it, there are 1 million OFWs in US, do you think we are not benefiting from them too? I dont know why DU30 supporters are keen to say that China is better than US, US is no. 1 while China is No. 2. We Filipinos will never realize that it is our culture that make our country poor, we are not taking advantage on what US is giving, we are all "reklamo" and as you can see there is that mentality of "instant lahat", look at Japan, SoKor and Singapore (from the British). Their culture is not all about reklamo, they work hard, they persevere, they take advantage on what is given, they are not corrupt, they have HONOR and lastly their INTEGRITY. On the other hand, hindi mo ba na isip sir na UNDERNEATH the table, China is pushing their rehabilitation in the West Philippine Sea strongly due to the fact that Philippines is easy to "manipulate"and our leader is not stable.

The US is here for a thousand reasons even before the oil underneath the West Philippine Sea came to light.

As for the million OFWs in the US benefiting us, this is really one-way traffic of looking at things: has not the US benefited from the brain drain of Filipino talents giving to the US what presumably these OFWs could have given to the Philippines?

For the part about taking advantage of what the US is giving, what exactly are we talking about here that the US is supposedly giving us? Japan, Sokor, Singapore did not exactly receive anything from the US or British in the case of SG. They earned their status today based on their own initiative implementing visionary programs in their own respective countries.

 

[depressed]

On the case on disputed islands.. tumigil ba ang land reclamations na nangyayari sa islang sa atin talaga?
so you guys are thinking na ginagawa ni DU30 yung paglapit nya sa china para makuha yung atin at respetuhin yung soberanya natin sa islang pinagtatalunan? sa tingin nyo yung sinasabing good move nyo ay hindi papasok sa isip ng Tsina?
Yung sinabi ni Du30 na gerahin o makipagayos (something like that na phrase nya).. well yes we dont have the capabilities para makipaggera but then makipagayos? so ang Tsina pa ang nasaktan?? haha.
Sa economic thing naman.. sa tingin nyo dadami ang trabaho sa pagtangkilik sa Tsina? hindi kaya maging tapunan lalo tayo ng mga kagamitan ng Tsina??
I think we dont need to separate ourselves from our old friends.
Dapat magdikit dikit ang mga inaapi sa Asya hindi ang umalyansa sa nangaapi.
Habang niyayakap natin ang Tsina.. nakakalimutan natin ang mga pinagaagawang teritoryo.. o sabihin nating kinakamkam na teritoryo natin.

OFW remittance is still one of our economic might.

And as for Japan, SoKor excluding Singapore because it is a British Country (built by the Brits) they absolutely stand with US helping them after World War 2, Japan was given aid by US, lending them Billions of $ to rebuild what US destroyed, Japan's automotive industry was allowed to be exported to US (Honda, Toyota, Nissan), these car manufacturers DEMOLISHED Chrysler, Chevrolet, Ford, etc. Didnt your heard of the Fall of Detroit? it was 4-5 yrs ago, automotive industry fell because of Japanese cars exported to US, US also helped Japan by putting Missile Defense System facing China. With SoKor, US helped rebuild SoKor after the Korean War, aids and even loans was handed by US, Samsung exports to US, mainly the mortal enemy of apple sharing shares in the stock market in wall street. US also gave SoKor MDS, this MDS is for North korean rocket launches to South Korea islands near the 38th Parallel.

I know this is opposing to your belief as you support DU30, me too supported him, I am a bisaya but Id rather go to the lesser evil (US) rather play with greater evil (China).

The reclamation stopped because of the Hague Ruling, they respected it and offered us to negotiate given that it is on their own terms.

Obviously DU30 is just experimenting who to trust or maybe DU30 is playing with the chinese to know where to attack them.
