RE: Philippine foreign policy experts and lawmakers have asked President Rodrigo Duterte to end his “policy of subservience” towards China,
How is Duterte going to do that with his puny military?
The only way he can do this is to form military alliances with other similarly threatened countries - Vietnam, South Korea, Japan, Australia, India and (if he can swallow his pride since he’s been distancing from us ), the USA.
Otherwise, he’ll have to continue to hope and pray China doesn’t swallow his country next after they invade Taiwan.
