We beg to differ.
Diplomats normally pursue peaceful solutions and don’t agitate for war. Does House Speaker Martin Romualdez really want a shooting war to breakout between the US and China over the Philippines? The Marcos Loyalists praise President Bongbong Marcos for his hardline stance on Philippine sovereignty over the so-called disputed areas when this is clearly not the…

Nobel Prize winning economist Paul Krugman wrote in the New York Times that China “is suffering from ‘economic long COVID,’ a…

Antonio Montalvan in his piece “The visit of Ursula von der Leyen to Manila” published on Press One writes about of the “first ever” visit to the Philippines by a sitting president of the European Commission in July 31.
