China races for influence as it frets over US footholds in Southeast Asia

Qin Gang's trip to Indonesia - his first visit to Southeast Asia since his appointment as China's foreign minister last year - has shown that Beijing is increasingly concerned that the region is leaning more towards the United States, analysts said.

 

While the agenda for Qin's two-day trip this week was dominated by trade and infrastructure development, statements from the Chinese side, as well as remarks by officials from both countries, revealed growing unease about a rivalry between China and the US, according to diplomatic observers.

 

The anxiety, they said, reflected the challenges both the US and China face as they try to nudge Asean countries to pick sides on particular issues.

Former Pres Duterte was previously very anti american and best buddy with big brother China. That relationship turned sour finally, but RP had already received loans from big brother, so it was in the cards, that the sprath island etc would become a area of conflict.

Happy that Pres. Marcos are more intelligent, and realize that USA is their best buddy.

Now, if also Thailand could learn from this

 

Would be better if all Counties let USA and China fight it out between them, without taking sides
