VN MADE » Philippines calls 4-party meeting on sea disputes
Acquino III quarrelled ferociously with the host, Mr. Hun Sen, PM of Cambodia, in the last ASEAN meetings.
PM Hun Sen refused to allow the Philippines to exploit the ASEAN meetings as a platform for anti-China activities.
In this respect, Acquino only has Vietnam as his partner.
The rest of the ASEAN members do not want to get involved in Acquino and Vietnam's conflicts with China over the South China Sea islands (the Spratlys).
Acquino III left the meeting with anger, and he vowed to initiate a 4-party meeting with VN, Malaysia and Brunei.
But the latter 2 are not stupid, and refused to be used by Manila in the conflicts. They rejected Acquino's invitation yesterday!
Morevover, the Philippines also has land conflicts with Malaysia too.
Acquino is very isolated in ASEAN.
Thailand, Laos, Burma, and Cambodia are pro-China, while the S. China Sea islands have nothing to do with these 4 countries. Now Malaysia and Brunei explicitly told Acquino that they won't get involved.
So much negative propaganda has been stirred up by Manila and supporters all over the world in the last while. They alleged that all the ASEAN countries are against "evil" China.
But you always need to read such anti-China propaganda with skepticism!
