The PH military alarmed by the "more than 4,600 Chinese nationals have reportedly enrolled in a private university and rented homes in various locations in Tuguegarao [Northern Philippines]."

I doubt the PH, the world's top importer of rice, will achieve rice self-sufficiency under a president who failed to deliver on his promise to bring down the price of rice to PhP20 per kg.

Mirroring China state propaganda, TikTok account posts lies on the West Philippine Sea. Filipino Redditor calls on others to mass-report the videos.

Good luck with that considering TikTok is a Chinese app.

The feud between TikTok and Universal Records drags on. Last week, TikTok began stripping music from all artists connected to Universal's vast publishing catalog.

Along with royalties, TikTok is "refusing to respond to our concerns about AI depriving songwriters from fair compensation, or provide assurances that they will not train their AI models on your songs," Universal said.

Make no mistake. This country is not a friend of the Philippines.

"China has destroyed at least 21,000 acres of coral reefs in the West Philippine Sea"

"The damage of coral reefs to Chinese activities such as dredging and landfills to build artificial islands, as well as clam harvesting."

UN expert Ian Fry urged the PH to disband its anti-communist task force which has been operating with impunity.

"The task force, which includes the military, has frequently labelled human rights activists, environmental defenders, lawyers and journalists as communist sympathisers, without providing any evidence."

“In Asia, 52 accounts are breached per 100 people on average. However, in the Philippines, this number goes up to 106 per 100 people."

No thanks to incompetent PH government officials. Hello, PhilHealth and COMELEC.
