Gentlemen, sans Sino-Filipino territorial disagreements, the policies implemented by Filipino president Benigno Co-huang-Co Aquino III has actually be to the benefit of Chinese citizens doing business in the Philippines and also for the Chinese Huaren in the Philippines. He is actually a corporate partner for big time Chinese-Filipino industrial barons such as Henry Sy, John Gokongwei, Lucio Tan; which are big time Filipino billionaires.

The most pro-China President in the Philippines in terms of economic and business policies as of late has been Mr. Aquino. Sans political and territorial issues, this is obsered with his recent Philippine-Taiwan Fisheries agreement, passing of softer Chinese immigration bill in the country , which makes Ilocos Norte and Ilocos Sur now the new port of entry for Chinese immigrants to the country.

Anyways,

President Aquino sitting between long time family friends John Gokongwei (second from left) and Lance Gokongwei (second from right).

Note: President Aquino is also a Hakka Chinese-Filipino. He is fluent in Hokkien ; his late mother the late President Corazon Cohuangco Aquino was a Hakka-Chinese.

Actually his Administration has been the least corrupt compared to other past Filipino presidents. He is very authoritarian in leadership and governing style, quite similar to that of his mother, the late President Corazon Co Huang Co Aquino.

Under his leadership their country rose in credit ranking, decreased their federal debt, and seen infrastructure improvements in the last 6 years.

If Binay wins, expect the Chinese members here to see us as traitors.

The pro US pinoy are the real traitor of Philippine. They set back Philippine development by 20 years. They sell Filippino soul to US as they allow their own poor people ravage by rapes and natural disaster. While the rich at top watch with little care.

The Philippines , naturally, has to balance their historical and political relations with the United States, as well as the deep cultural bond with China. You have to also understand that over 1/4th of the Filipino population has some kind of Chinese ancestry. You must understand their national objective of trying to balance the two powers.

Given, that is what i have always been very jealous about. The shear amount of Chinese influence in the Philippines.

All China has to do is take up a more proactive and cooperative stance with Manila, and you will see that the Philippines will try to be open to cooperation or at least keep doors of communication open.

Balance? Idiot like Aquino be a one side affair by living in delusion that US a former colonial master can help develop Philippine. Beside donating a few rusty ships and armour car. What has US done for development and progress of Philippine economy?

China on other hand can rapidly build large number of budget houses to solve Manila slum problem. Build power station so investment and development can go forwards.

Aquino never care for the real of Philippine. He is a traitor for Philippine. All he care was his politics status. Siding with US sounds macho and make him like a small man stand up against Giant panda. End up achieve nothing for the development of Philippine.

Aquino has to live up to the expectations of Filipino Nationalism, which his countrymen expect him to exercise as the Commander in Chief of their Republic. If he takes up a softer stance on China in the Scarborough Shoal issue he would have been labeled an 'unpatriotic' Filipino and would have questioned his loyalties to the Filipno Constitution and Republic and right wing Filipino pundits would have claimed his Chinese ancestry as suspect.

You have to know that Chinese Huaren in the Philippines have had experienced racial discrimination throughout history there since the Spanish era. From a persecuted minority to one of the most successful minority group and most influential now in their country. So you have to probably understand his 'excessive' national policies in terms of territorial and geopolitical machinations.

Other than that, you have to appreciate his diplomatic calibre. From how he has handled the rebels in the south in reaching a historical peace accord in Mindanao, the same year he finds and writes an agreement with Taiwan on a historical Taiwanese-Filipino Fisheries Accord , which now effectively diffuses maritime disputes between Taipei and Manila and to an extent Beijing.

On one hand he is juggling national image and defense goals by inviting the US military to help patrol their waters, which is heavily unprotected due to the limitation of the Philippine defense spending. And on the other hand he takes advantage of his Chinese cadres by facilitating direct flights from Beijing to Manila, Shanghai to Manila, Shanghai to Cebu, Shanghai to Davao through Cebu Pacific Flights (owned by John Gokongwei; a Chinese-Filipino industrial barron and billionaire). He has increased diplomatic rapproachment with the Chinese through cultural exchanges, local government exchanges, and through greater trade and business ventures. His right arm in coaxing China to cooperation on more developmentalist-inclined areas has been the Chinese-Filipino Chamber of Commerce, which he is a member of and a proud supporter.

In fact Aquino even communicated with Taiwanese representatives in Hakka , btw. Not in English. That says much about the man.

Aquino never care for the real of Philippine. He is a traitor for Philippine. All he care was his politics status. Siding with US sounds macho and make him like a small man stand up against Giant panda. End up achieve nothing for the development of Philippine.

You would be surprised to know that there are Filipino politicians in the Philippines that see Aquino as being too soft on the Chinese and being a Chinese sympathizer. Not everything is very black and white, my friend.

Reality is different.

And by the way, the most pro-China possible candidate would be Mar Roxas. Binay is from the same cadre as Estrada, who actually was in support of restrictive policies back in the 1990s. Binay is an opportunist individual. Roxas has more principle. And by principle, Aquino has plenty of that compared with his other peers.

He is the same man that called into question and led the sacking of the Chief Justice of the Phlippine Supreme Court for corruption.

THAT is what Aquino is about.

goodluck PH but i think binay will win

He's too corrupt. Having him in power will be like having Estrada again back as president.

Roxas is preferable. Or Duterte.

aquino is good guy i like him cory aquino and fidel ramos my favorite wish we had leader like that in my country . that is why i said good luck if binay come to power , i know he is corrupt i am not saying it the evidence is in the what has been done in makati and shown in media , he has the most approval rating.
roxas and duterte and even mariam is good they are honest
but marcos and binay i dont like

i talk to many people they are crazy about binay , i dont see what he has done for filipinos

Really evidence then you say a lot but like your claims its all talk no real evidence first you're accusing the president not the secretary of department of social welfare and development while binay cases have been piling up in court so arrogance mix with ignorance is typical of you people and stick to that truth

Hmm, i heard from some of my friends who work in Makati that the son of Binay was also involved in graft scandal ? Something about overusing his powers as city mayor of Makati. That doesn't surprise me since it is like a family business there since Binay , prior to becoming VP in the Philippines, was also the mayor of Makati.

I agree with you about Marcos; the man was corrupt. Tho i admire his authoritarian leadership early on, later he became too unpredictable.

I never thought about Miriam Santiago-Defensor. Tho i do remember that she ran for president back in the early 90s and lost by a narrow margin. She seems like a very vocal and principle-strong individual since she was involved in sacking of the PH supreme court justice due to corruption charges. And if my memory serves me right she is also a judge in the ICJ.

Are you based in Manila now, my friend?

From the perspective of the Philippines , what Manila is doing --- leveraging her relations with Manila to counter supposed Chinese slight --- is actually an example diplomatic and geopolitical maturity. The Philippines has agreed to hosting American forces through the 1998 Visiting Forces Agreement Platform. They have not revoked their 1998 Senate and Constitutional decision to forbid foreign military bases in the Philippines.

Significance ? The significance of this is that the Philippines is practicing national independence and pragmatism. This opens the doors to possible change or softer in tone if Beijing and Manila can strike an agreement that makes both sides claim 'victory' to their respective population base.

The Filipinos are a very wise people; they have not eliminated the possibility of restoring working relations with the Chinese. The Chinese have but to capitalize on this potential.

Well she turn down here appointment to ICJ and yes she ran for President in 90s but did not win i like her too but i don't like her stand on the west Philippines sea as for binay screw him and his corrupt family he's and his family is step backward and disaster for the Philippines and as for Roxas again he down graded from president aquino but he's in the same good president type place a president aquino we need a great president he would be ideally president in different situation but not our current state we need a better than a good president.
