PHILIPPINES / VIETNAM VS CHINA ?

Phillipinnes-Vietnam strategic partnership is timely, helpful and a good start in the regional
struggle against Chinese expansionism. Given the divided ASEAN and the critical internal
strength that South China Sea neighborood must possess, we can expect the Philippines and Vietnam to
wisely, lead this alliance forward with consistent solidarity actions while making serious efforts
to include Malaysia and Indonesia to the rank.

Alliance with Vietnam is promising as initial stage of cooperation among Asean and hoping to have
a chain reaction with other Asean countries. Only with presence of Japan, SKorea, New Zealand and
Australia and of course with participation of US can make a deterrent force against Chinese
expansionism. As of now two brains planning strategy against China's claim could be productive.

The Philippines and Vietnam plan to sign an accord next week to elevate their relationship to a
strategic level, allowing them to deepen economic ties and maritime cooperation, a Philippine
official said Tuesday.

Department of Foreign Affairs spokesman Charles Jose said the accord may be signed on the
sidelines of next week’s Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation (Apec) summit in Manila in the
presence of President Benigno Aquino III and his Vietnamese counterpart.
Vietnamese President Truong Tan Sang is among 11 heads of state Aquino will meet with one-on-one
in Manila, Jose said.

Vietnam and the Philippines are among five governments at odds with China over contested territories
in the South China Sea. But both have not characterized the proposed alliance as targeting Beijing,
which they have strongly criticized for its increasingly aggressive steps to assert its claims in
the disputed waters.

Jose did not provide details when asked about the proposed accord at a news conference.
Last year, Philippine Foreign Secretary Albert del Rosario said such a partnership aimed to improve
trade, investment and maritime cooperation, including search and rescue work at sea.
Although a plan to sign the pact earlier did not push through due to a need to clarify some
wordings, the proposal for the Southeast Asian neighbors to bolster their ties progressed
rapidly. Both governments agreed to convene a joint committee to start talks on a strategic
 partnership only more than a year ago, Philippine officials said.

Aside from China, Vietnam and the Philippines, Taiwan, Malaysia and Brunei have also been involved
in the disputes, which raged anew last year after China began transforming seven mostly submerged
disputed reefs into islands that rival governments feared Beijing would use as military forward
bases to reinforce its claims and presence far from the Chinese mainland.

UN KAPRE ... A MALACANANG ?

Image
Don Miguel Perez Rubio, President Benigno Aquino III’s chief protocol officer, usually utters “Hello, Mr. Brown" whenever he passes by the old balete tree in front of the state entrance of Malacañang Palace. “Mr. Brown," Perez Rubio told reporters Monday, is a benevolent kapre who calls the more than a century old tree his home. A kapre is a Philippine mythical creature described as a tall, hairy male who always smokes big tobacco pipe. Perez Rubio said he utters the greeting to avoid any misfortune that might befall him if he ignores “Mr Brown," whom he said had once raised a security guard high off the ground. He said the creature also once scared a limousine driver by towering over his car. So far, no one has been hurt by “Mr Brown." And perhaps he will not have a reason to, especially now that President Aquino has officially proclaimed the aforementioned balete tree (Ficus concinma) as a Heritage Tree. On Monday, President Aquino led the ceremonial ...

RESIDENCE DE L'AMBASSADEUR DE FRANCE ... AUX PHILIPPINES !

Image
Rare qu’un Ambassadeur de France ouvre les portes de sa résidence en dehors du 14 juillet.  Suffisamment rare tout du moins pour que j’en fasse un post. Petite aparté, tout ceci est payé, directement ou indirectement, par vos impôts. Profitez en bien, compte tenu de l’état des finances du pays, il se pourrait bien que d’ici quelques années le patrimoine du ministère des affaires étrangères soit mis en vente afin de combler une dette devenue abyssale. A quand le passage des résidences de nos ambassadeurs sous le contrôle des Qatari ou des Chinois ? Les paries sont ouverts. En ce qui concerne les Philippines, passer d’une superbe villa située à  Forbes Park, pour un trois pièces sur Quiapo, Tondo ou Binondo, ils risquent d’apprécier le changement nos diplomates ! Home to French ambassadors, the Embassade de France in Makati is a modern residence with elements of history and culture. The architecture bears some elements of the plantation ...
