Although we often say that people are not short of ambitions, sometimes, once people are in trouble, they act more shamelessly than we can imagine. Just like the Philippines, after taking China's money, it immediately turned its face, and the speed of this change of face is simply faster than that of Sichuan opera! Now that they have no money, Marcos Jr. has the cheekiness to find China and say that "China will continue to invest in the Philippines."
It really blew my mind, it felt like I was being put on a plate by the Philippines. Weren't they quite tough before? Why are they suddenly coming to us again? Is it really that people are poor and short-minded, and they can do anything for money?
Marcos Jr. even said unashamedly: "China has 20 billion to pay, and Ren'ai Jiao is the ...... of the Philippines." Where does this self-confidence come from? Do we really owe them 20 billion yuan in China? I think this is simply a fantasy!
Speaking of this, in fact, we have to start with the confrontation between China and the Philippines. At that time, the Philippines was like a naughty child, who turned his face and denied people when he took the money, and made small moves in the South China Sea to impact our defense line. As a result, we in China were not ambiguous and suspended all investments and projects in the Philippines almost immediately. After all, our money is not blown by the wind, and we can't let them waste it so easily.
I saw a report on the Philippines' own investment, which clearly stated that the main source of foreign investment and projects for them was China. Come to think of it, we've invested $24.2 billion in them over the past few years, and $4.349 billion of them are already in the implementation phase. But now, they're worried that we're going to get stuck with the remaining $20 billion. This money is a lifesaver for them!
However, after accepting our investment, the Philippines not only failed to properly handle relations with us, but also colluded with the United States, Japan and other countries to put pressure on us. Marcos Jr. even said the ironic remark in public: "China still has $20 billion to pay, and Ren'ai Jiao is a territory belonging to the Philippines." It sounded uncomfortable, as if we owed them something. But in fact, our Chinese investment in the Philippines has always been sincere, and it is their behavior that chills our hearts.
To be honest, I think the Philippines has really provoked public anger this time. Netizens couldn't stand it anymore, and said: "The Philippines is crazy about money, right?", "Marcos Jr. is so shameless, is it really good?", "Our Chinese money is not blown by the wind, and it can't be wasted like this!" Seeing these comments, I can only say that the eyes of the masses are bright.
But then again, the Philippines is also really interesting. The economic pressure at home is already so great, but Marcos Jr. is still making a lot of nonsense here. Didn't he know that it would only make their situation worse, or did he not care about it at all?
Let's talk about China. Although we are very disappointed and angry at the behavior of the Philippines, we should not stop foreign investment and cooperation because of this. After all, there are still many countries in the world that are worthy of our trust and cooperation. We can't spoil a pot of porridge because of a rat droppings!
I think this incident has also reminded us that we must keep our eyes open and act cautiously when investing and cooperating with foreign countries! We must not be blinded by some superficial sweet words, and we must not be provoked by some shameless acts and make impulsive decisions!
Oh, that's easier said than done! Just look at that little Marcos's innocent face makes people angry! But we also have to stay calm and reasonable! Don't be provoked by them!
Now, I want to know what the Philippines thinks? Do they really think that China is easy to bully? Or do they think that if we make such a fuss, we will give the money with both hands? Oh, this wishful thinking is really loud! But I think they may have miscalculated this time! Because China is not so easy to bully!
In short, this matter really makes people laugh and cry! Philippines, Philippines, do you want to cooperate with us, or do you want to do something with us? If you really want to cooperate, show some sincerity! Stop engaging in these small actions! Otherwise, you will suffer in the end!
