I'm a pilipino and we need america not china not Russia...God blessed America

[kevinjenner]

China’s past and present conflicts, illegal wars, occupations, regime change and proxy wars in Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria and Yemen, are of concern to us all.

🇺🇸 USA is a war based economy.

Perpetual war means perpetual profits ☹️

[harrylippidardo]

Debt ceiling?? Plenty of money to expand military around the world.

[chitoambid]

The Philippines president want to follow what Ukrainian suffered now what a stupid move.

[ferdiefulgar]

I'm hoping US will allow Philippines having new F16 Fighting Falcons at least 36 New F16 Fighting Falcons and also we need US Decomission Destroyer, Littoral, Minesweeper, MRRV, OPV, Landing Docks, Fast Attack craft and Patrol Torpedo Boats at least we have a squadrons of each kind of naval warships.

Is it that same thing if Putin start to open up bases in Cuba?

[BLaCkKsHeEp]

PH should've never asked for the US to leave their bases... i wanted to be stationed there :( and now look at em, China took advantage of it and PH is paying the price.

[abdullahkiram]

We never learn the lesson ! We have no enemy because of US , Japan became our enemy during WW2.

[nuxmusic]

Omg here we go again WW2 we are the battle ground of different foreigns and now it might happen again. But the difference is US will just watch from afar and just provide us with battle equipments like UKRAINE

[ulyssesgomez]

A squad of F22s, 1 Patriot Battery, can hold the fort. Not an invading build up, but a solid defence and show of strength type of deal.

[matthewshields]

Now we need a base on Taiwan, China would love that.

[generalwainwright]

We didn’t want them the first time General Jonathon Wainwright is who basically handled the situation perfectly at ww2 onset……..

[occamselectricrazor]

if the war in ukraine ends the military-industrial complex needs another conflict to keep those profits rolling in.

[Vr_Demon_]

Hello China! "Say hello to my little friend"🤣🤣🤣

[williammudloff]

We HAD a very LARGE presence there up until the early 90's when the Phillipino people literally voted us out. Huge mistake on their part. In more ways than one.

[rem-entertainmentatbp.]

I hope they will allow filipino to enter US, VISA FREE

[momosinger]

The United States establishes a military base in Vietnam. It will be a very important strategic point. The US Department of Defense is in talks with the Vietnam government.

As per my understanding, this move is of conflicting meanings. It is a move for wish fulfilment. However, it may represent deceit, treachery, misrepresentation and danger. Presenting wishes that are selfish, trivial, or motivated by greed or vengeance may be fulfilled in a literal sense, only to have them rebound disadvantageously. This may be a mockery. This move is for the hope that some perplexing problem will be solved, some high ambition will reach fruition, or at least the attainment of assurance of happiness, success or good fortune. This move does not promise wish fulfilment nor does it guarantee satisfaction or happiness for the Philippines.
